I had NO clue!!!

okay, so i think i must be crazy! Don't get me wrong i LOVE all my stores, clients, business, etc....but i have NEVER worked sooooo hard in my life...ha! at least it's fun work huh? I never knew the "mad holiday rush" would start so soon! I got over 100 faxes in on sunday morning--from ONE store and all personalized tees....YIKES-and they havent stopped yet! actually, almost all of the ones from Sunday are done, but this season sho aint gonna be easy! If i didnt have any pride i'd post a photo of my office and me...hideous and catastrophic! oh well...I am now starting to stress over my own holiday cards....do i do pretty or fun w/a funky t on since i do send like 200...might as well have my stuff on it? eh, dunno yet....it will come to me i am sure though! One thing i DO KNOW is that no one should be expecting my card anytime before christmas eve....ha! seriously...okay, it is 2:55am and i have just been editing pics from all my recent sessions so ill post this little pretty girl...what an angel....yeah, looks are deceiving arent they Cass!? Have a good one...heck i might as well just stay up and start friday...who knows.

Funky T's take on Atlanta!

yea! here we "grow" again...okay-what a cheeseball! ...anyway, got this great new store gig in Atlanta....multi location store....It just looks like my kinda place...cant wait to go check it out and shop there...Limetree gifts is the more grown up store and Lil' Squeeze is the kiddo version...how freaking cute is that! Another very cool, hip mom store owner...looking forward to working with her! They should be in several of the stores by next week...well, that is if the kiddos and hubby cooperate this week and over the weekend..ha! Bottomline, if you are in the atlanta area or traveling through there i think this is a "must stop" kind of boutique!

Team Hutton Gear!!!

Hey all....sorry havent had time to post the Team Hutt goods on my website...I already have lots of folks near and far inquiring about them...very cool! Anyway, they come in pink or grey in the following sizes:

YS, YM, YL YXL, AS, AM, AL, AXL, AXXL

mimi & reagan wear the YS, mary lawson YM, and Cooper the YL...thought that might help for those of you that know them...

they are 30.00 each w/$5 from every shirt going to saving little hearts! feel free to email me w/any orders and or questions until i can get it posted on my site...sorry this is a crazy time here at emtannerdesigns! everyone and their brother seems to already be doing their holiday shopping...YIKES...I could have never imagined it would be quite THIS crazy already!

Thanks to everyone for your prayers and support of sweet little baby Hutt!

What does sheer joy look like to a mother of 4?...

This!....Oh how excited i am about my new washer and dryer...My sweet little momma got it for me since my cleaning lady stopped cleaning (she was doing my laundry bc i just cannot keep up!)...mom thought this was the ticket and boy was she right...i FINISHED (which is unheard of in the tanner house) ALL of my laundry on saturday....holy cow, kristine was right...this is a life changing, fine piece O' machinery!

Johnson Annual Halloween Hayride...2007

already posted this but i liked his face better tonight..ha!

and couldnt leave Gene out!

cutest firefighter EVER!!! NO DOUBT!

the winiest "Cindiwella" i know!

my pretty little kitty!



anxiously awaiting trick-or-treating!

little boys just make me crazy...look how freaking cute these two are!!!

trick or treat!?

okay so the funny thing about this pic is DAJ in action....doesnt phase him that he is sporting a swiss milk maid dress w/ an air vent pumping and a wendy's blonde look alike plastic wig (possibly even had it on backwards)....and look at Mimi (one of his little chickens--the one by him in the blue dress....NOTHING AT ALL IS ABNORMAL TO HER EITHER! she's just hangin' w/daddy-o)...love the tennies and socks w/the dress too!

at one point in the evening they were turning cartwheels in the road

as the hayride stopped to the tune of "Thriller" blaring...really.

so a fun time was had by all...but everyone of course missed Jill (she stayed in philly w/hutt....spent the day taping tootsie roll pops to her ivs and posing her w/candy bars...ha!---yes, perhaps she is a bit stir crazy but it did make for some funny first halloween pics if i do say so myself..ha!)....All the while, half of Knoxville was feasting on EITHER David or Shannon's chili...can't have both as it has turned into a "cookoff" between those two...For those of you who know David...realize that only DJ would walk into kmart ON halloween and come out w/ the psumo swiss maid and hippo bikini costumes....that is only a few certain people would dare to wear this soooo they were on clearance TODAY---but lucky for him..these were probably very close to EXACTLY WHAT HE WAS LOOKING FOR! ....Anyway, i could go on and on but a fun time was of course had by all and thought you'd enjoy a good laugh at some of these pics...pardon the poor pics....not a great "night photographer".

Because I don't want to hear..."told you so"....

to ALL of my co-workers, clients, close friends, family that tried to tell me, i just wanted to tell YOU that you "told ME so" and you couldnt have hit the nail on the head more! Of course i am only giving you the credit so i dont hear "i tried to tell you...blah blah blah"...ha! yep, i am a moron....wont happen again though....i can guarenTEE (no pun intended) YOU THAT ONE! Em's back and wait till you see what she's got in store! LITERALLY! Lots of fun halloween from the Johnson's annual hayride to be posted soon....check back cause you'll laugh your butt off!

Haydn Simmons "or" Gene Tanner in the making!

okay, so this was HYSTERICAL! yep, my 9 year old decides he wants to be gene simmons! niiiccce...but you know i have grown to love gene and the simmons family jewels show...so we whipped it up...i think i did a pretty darn good job on the face! just thought id share...not sure we have a normal kid that decides to be luke skywalker, darth vadar or something like that...it was between the notre dame leprechan, bruce pearl, or gene simmons!? what the heck!
