critique please!

I've been working on a logo with my sister Amy, and this is what we've come up with. I'd really like some feedback from anyone. (Constructive criticism is welcome)!

Does it have quick readability? What kinds of things would you guess that they sell? Does it look professional? What was your first impression?

Thank you!

sizzlin' summer

The temperatures have gone up, and we're finally enjoying a little sunshine. These pictures crack me up because they're so classic summer.

summer?

Changing my header was somewhat wishful thinking. Our weather is supposed to be in the 70's by Saturday, but we woke up to snow this morning. Yes snow. Not to be confused with Sno-shack. Although I would rather have woken up to one of those.

So Tom’s birthday is here, and I’m feeling the pressure to do something monumental. While looking at others’ blogs, I’ve seen some wildly impressive odes to husbands, and I considered that option. After much deliberation though, I decided it is more my style to embarrass Thomas as much as possible, and in doing so you might be able to see what it is about him that I find so irresistible.

I present to you a slideshow. Enjoy.

bookmaking

I don't usually post stuff that I make, but I just think handmade books at this stage are so simple and beautiful that I had to share. This is going to be a photo album for Annie. It's pretty darn big, so I've spent quite a bit of time on it.

Now to just bind it in pink pearlescent leather. I'm so excited!

Biker babe

So lately the weather has been perfect for riding bikes, and we've been cruisin' around the Burg a little bit. Annie loves this activity, and kept her little sunglasses on the whole time today. She's pretty funny just kickin back with dad in her shades. I think she and Tom would both prefer that I carry her once in a while, but I lack the coordination (at least that's what I say). So Tom is really getting a buff left bicep.

Yes we know we need a seat and helmet for Annie, and they're on the to-buy list. Donations are appreciated. We accept paypal, no personal checks.





This is the gruesome twosome all ready to go to church (notice Annie waving her little fingers off). Tom and Annie have been total buds lately. Maybe it's because she is realizing that he's way more fun than Mom, or maybe because Tom's hoping for a sweet Father's Day gift.
