Happy Birthday Sis. Debbie! :)

Ryan and I photographed a 50th birthday celebration today. Sis. Debbie asked us to take photos of her party at Hokkaido Seafood Buffet. She's such a nice person and her family helped us out during our very first CFO Night!

Here are some photos taken today at her party.

Free Rice!

I knew the title would grab some the attention of you rice lovers! Well, I was just surfing on the internet and found this really cool website:

http://www.freerice.com/

This website is about donating 20 grains of rice through the UN World Food Program to help end hunger.

I realized I needed to expand my vocabulary a lot more! I think I donated about a cup... then realized it's dinner time =P

Music & Lyrics

Today, I remembered a song that I've been wanting! It's from the movie, "Music & Lyrics" with Hugh Grant and Drew Barrymore. I'll put a sample of the movie on this post for you to check out.

This movie definitely reminds me of Ryan and myself! It reminds me how Ryan would arrange music and when we finally have to record our voices, Ryan always tells me to "sing a little louder". I started laughing when Drew started to sing and it was really soft... that's what I do! Seriously, I don't like wearing those earphones! I can't hear myself sing.. and when I hear myself sing, it's so loud, so I don't want to sing loud...

Usually I write the lyrics to the songs and Ryan adds the music. Even though he says he's not a lyricist, I think he creates beautiful music without my help! If you check out how Hugh starts to arrange the music, that's what Ryan does too! He uses all these different instrumental sounds with his computer program and his old keyboard to create a wonderful arrangement! It makes me proud to be the wife of a very talented musician! Ryan is a blessing from God to me and I always pray that we can spend more years writing beautiful music together for God's glory!

Well, here's a clip of the movie that I found on YouTube. If you haven't seen it and want to see a chick flick, this is a good one to rent and watch with your better half or on your own :-D.

Engagement Photo Shoot: Farrell & Tallulah

On Sunday, March 30th, Ryan and I met up with Tallulah and Farrell for their engagement shoot. They are perfect for one another and so easy to take photos of too!! We met at Playa Del Rey to shoot some beach shots and at a park nearby.  Then we headed off to the Central Library in Los Angeles and decided to take more shots there!

Here are some photos we took of the couple.  We'll be photographing their wedding on Saturday, May 10th!
