EvieJean's Boutique

This little boutique is all the buzz in Solon Springs! 
You can stop in everyday and you'll find new stuff -
old, new, vintage, clothing, hats, makeup, shoes, accessories,
art, candy etc.  Check out EvieJean's blog at:

Hopefully these pictures will give you an idea of what little
gems you might find here... seriously, everything you see
is for sale. 



Yep, this is Sig - we've had two meltdowns in EvieJean's 
already... self control is a hard thing to learn!  Balloons, 
tutus and candy - it's tough! 




So many vintage hats and shoes - love em.


Jewelry that's handmade here in Solon by J.Rae Designs.

Junior High

This was one crazy PhotoBooth shoot!!  Junior High
folks at the Vineyard.

Kris is kinda creepin me out in this one.








These next four pics... brace yourself.  You are looking 
straight into the eyes of a chipmunk!





Senior High

Here's an idea of what a night with the Senior High youth
group would be like... 



I really don't think he needs a Monster... WHOOO!




Energy - energy - need more energy....


The beloved Youth Pastors. You guys are amazing.






Small Group Leaders

This last week was a whirlwind of PhotoBooth insanity! 
We started things off with the Vineyard's Small Group
Leaders on Wed & Thurs night...  and actually not all of
these nuts are even Small Group Leaders, just random
goofs walking through.



Has anyone seen Brian? 






We had a lull in the action...

Signe aka Kitty

This morning Sig was pretending she was a mama kitty.
In her box...


On top of all her kittens...


Peeking out...


Sleeping...



I wish I could fit in a box and shut the lid and tell everyone
"SHHHH, we're sleeping!"

Grand Opening

I seriously feel so lucky to be able to say I LOVE MY
CHURCH!  Not just the super rad new building it's in
but all the people.  It's a great place, if you're in the 
Duluth area and think church is dull, stuffy, boring, uber 
religious etc etc... don't write it off until you give the 
Vineyard a shot! For more info on them check out their

It was a full house on Easter weekend when they opened
the doors at the new location, Al and I got to be apart of
some action and take some pics.  From a distance it looks
like there are cars filling the parking lot...


But actually if you don't drive a motorcycle you won't be 
let in the doors!  Not really, but there are a lot of biker 
dudes and dudets.


In the "lounge" folks lounge around.


An all-out-full-fledged coffee bar... yum.




Aubrey, Asa and Clyde rockin it out.  There should be a 
cover charge to get in church!


Welcome.


Preach it Michael.

6 Grand-Girls!

Little girls in Easter dresses... AND mud boots, seriously
can life get better than this?
We had a bright noon sun for this shoot and 6 crazy girls,
here are a few of my favorites!

Ring-Around-The-Rosie!


Cousin smooches to little Cassidy.



I think someone is cold, even with her cool gloves!


I love this picture!



This one just makes me giggle, I tried to get them all to 
put their heads together... alas, two out of the six. :) But
a camera full of hair is pretty cool.


And of course our favorite Maddelyn and Audrey. The other
four gals are their cousins, they were all together for the
Easter weekend... I imagine the guys felt a little left out.
