We have been keeping Bev and her family in our Prayers. Bev and her Husband are slowly making their way on the road to recovery, but the road will be long and while they are recovering their children are being cared for by family and need assistance. Since Bev and her Husband were both self-employed they don’t have some of the benefits available to those who work for another company.
With the amazing group of Women at Entrepreneurial Moms we are putting together a silent auction that will take place on Tuesday evening. However, if you aren’t attending or just want to help out in some way, you can bid on the auction items online (in other words you don’t have to attend to win, although you might just love it if you are a Mom and have your own business or are thinking of starting one). I have donated a Family (or Portrait) Session. If you were thinking of getting your family portraits done, then this would be a fabulous opportunity to help Bev and her family and get your family portraits at the same time.

Yesterday, I had the wonderful opportunity to have a fashion shoot with the sweetest teenager, I have yet to meet. We had a lot of fun and took many wonderful photos.
I’ll leave you with one here, but for more head on over to my photo blog.
Oh my she is just so gorgeous. And take a look at that cupcake. I know, it looks divine. Well, it not only looks divine, but tastes like a little bit of Heaven. And you are thinking, but BeachMama you make cupcakes! I know, but I just didn’t have the time or the will power to go through with a whole batch of cupcakes and icing. Then I met Nicole from Let Them Eat Cake Bakery. And on her last day of work before her mat leave kicked in she whipped up a batch of these gorgeous cupcakes for me.
I wanted some for the shoot and well, we ate a few of them yesterday. They are smooth and delicious and just the right amount of sweetness. Nicole is about to have her first baby (congratulations Nicole!) so she will be off for a little bit, but I get the feeling she will be easing back into baking quite quickly so if you need some cupcakes, a cake or some cookies head on over to her site and order some up you will not be disappointed. Thank you Nicole!
Please head over to my Photography Blog for a wonderful Christmas Giveaway. This is a chance to pay it forward to someone you know, who could really use a boost this Holiday Season.
