Hand made is one of those photo themes where you can really dig into the past or just whip something up and with Mother's day weekend, if your house is anything like my house, there are plenty of hand made treasures to go around. In fact, this year, I jackpotted a tiny plant, I flower painted by hand, a flower made from a hand print and a lovely poem on a paper strawberry that said I was the "Berry" best mom of all time. Teachers really work hard to make these Mother's day moments special. My daughter was up at the crack of dawn. She couldn't wait to hand over her hand made treasures. She's a real gem.
This week, my hand made was a beautiful flower wreath for a tiny head. I love flowers in the hair of little people. This is my daughter. She wanted to make the flowers out of reds and pinks but this week, we play a game that I like to call "I win" because I win all week during Mother's day week. She managed a smile for me and she's sporting one of new prop dresses.
I loved checking out your hand made delights this week! Great work as always. And big thanks to the amazing photographers who somehow find time to squeeze this photo group into the busy busy lives that we all are racing around with. I appreciate you!

What's new with Daphne Ellenburg?
Looks like my Yankee's are going to the playoffs. Hooray! I sure love watching my boy play ball.
Photographed the most cooperative 10 day old - EVER.
Started planning my next adventure - Kindergarden Graduation portraits. I picked up Madison's Cap and Gown this week and they look just like my big girl gowns. Love it.
We might have gotten too involved the in the Football draft this week :-)
My Teepees came in. Now we are looking for Indians.
Started watching this for Mother's day. It's really good!
And took this glamourous fish face selfie with my baby girl.
My husband planned the most fun Mother's day cook out with my neighbors and my family. Jefferson made almost to sunset before he passed out with his Crawfish. Gosh darn it, that's the cutest baby I've ever made.
To my Moms, I hope your mother's day was filled with the children you love. There is nothing better than being surrounded with love on the one day you get to rule the world. Wishing you a wonderful week filled with family, friends and photography! Make it a great week!
XoXoXo,
Daphne
