			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Happy New Year Everyone!  Since it&#8217;s January 1st, I thought I would start the New Year off right and post some of our party packages for 2010.  We love, love, love all parties &#8211; both kids and adults (especially if there are margaritas&#8230;..)</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This fabulous family is so much fun &#8211; I met them at my daughter&#8217;s preschool, <a href="http://www.happylandpreschool.org">Happyland</a>,  almost two years ago and I just love hanging around them (in a non-stalkerish way, of course).  Last weekend, we headed out to a local park here in LA and, as you can see, really just laughed and smiled the whole time.  The weather was perfect photographer&#8217;s weather:  all clouds without a trace of sun &#8211; ahhhh &#8211; just love it.  Thank you Jodie and Mike for such a fun session &#8211; I hope you love your images as much as I do!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The Hoshide family and I set out to go to one of our beautiful So Cal beaches, with amazing weather and the water was perfect.  Luckily, there were plenty of outfit changes for the boys since both were pretty wet about half way through the session.   We ran around for over two hours &#8211; I think the three of us were more tired then the boys were but we all had such a wonderful time!  Here are a few of my favorite images and thank you for such a fantastic session!</p>
