We made it to Canberra!  We are officially moved into our new house.  No more boxes to unpack.  All I have left to do is organise the studio and then I’m all set!  Yippee!  I love Canberra so far.  The climate is perfect.  I can actually open the windows in my house to get some fresh air blowing through the place.  Love that! 

Christmas was great.  This was the first time we have spent Christmas alone as a family.  The kids had a great time and it was fun to see them opening presents and playing with their toys.  Christmas is way more fun with kids.  : )

I’m lucky to have been able to take the past month off.  I was a bit overworked before we left Darwin but I loved every minute of it.  I still have a few orders to wrap up and then I’m free to start shooting in Canberra.  I’m looking forward to meeting new people and I can’t wait to see what 2010 has in store for me!  Stay tuned!

In the meantime, I thought I would take a look back at 2009.  I worked my butt off this year!  So many wonderful clients and so many beautiful pictures to choose from.  I had a hard time deciding!  Anyway, without further adieu…here are my top ten fave pics from 2009…enjoy!

Love this shot of my nephew from when we were in Denver in August.  (Pretween)
