Lil Blue Boo in Desert Magazine!

Lil Blue Boo was featured in the Desert Magazine today! That's Boo and I on the cover! (Link to the full article is at the bottom of the post)








So strange reading about myself....especially quotes! I cringed a little! The photography is amazing though....you have to check out Taili's work:


About a month ago photographer Taili came and took photos for the spread. My friend Lisa (Ellebows) came and took behind the scenes shots!

Boo getting her hair done by stylist Tara Correnti:

Mr. Lil Blue Boo watches on:


Diesel and I posing for a photo in the backyard:


I LOVE that Diesel was in some shots :)


Boo in full boredom:


So fun! I am so grateful to the Desert Magazine for featuring Boo and I! I'm still in a little shock over the whole thing.....but SO excited to have that cool photo of Boo and I to frame for the house!

Update: Here is the full article in high resolution if you'd like to read it. The photos I posted above had some pretty small font.

    This is so awesome. Congrats. I've been following for about a month now and this is one of my favorite blogs, I'm talking Top 2, hard to choose between you and A Beautiful Mess, you're tied I guess. Your family is so beautiful and your legs don't quit. I'm so jealous. Congrats again on such a wonderful accomplishment. And lil Boo getting a cover so early in life! How fun it must be to grow up with a mom like you.
