Our little baby is walking now !

Written by alex.kruk on 10:23 PM

So much is going on in our life these days. Last 2 weeks everything was going on around Elvis, this week everything is going on about PLACE TO BE. We have to move out from our apartment next Wednesday. Yep it is just about week. The thing is we don't know where we want to go, where we want to live. Last two years here in America didn't bring to our life nothing but living on the edge. We are thinking about Las Vegas or Los Angeles, we might stay here in Oceanside. We just don't know yet. It is so crazy !!! I will update about it soon.

To put all stress away we do go to the beach everyday, to talk, to play, let kids run around since they don't have the best time with us now. Time is going so fast, incredibly fast. our small baby was just born and now he is 11 months walking ! On the beach there is only one direction and it is ocean. He doesn't care that water is cold, he has fun playing, getting wet, smiling non stop !

some pictures from the day

Somebody is running away :)

The Ultimate Elvis Contest - Pechanga - finals

Written by alex.kruk on 10:07 PM

Since I didn't post anything in between I will come right away to the last day - The finals, the BIG 5. What a stressful and long day it was. James got on 4th position. We had a lot of fun, a lot of stress and we lived for 3 days life filled with Elvis' world, tired we came back to our life.

YOU CAN SEE JAMES SINGING "AMERICAN TRILOGY" HERE

The showroom is wide and hung with a thousand lights. It seats about 1200 and the stage is very wide so there is not a bad seat in the house. On either side was a huge television screen where you could witness each Elvis larger than life as they sang snarled belted and crooned their hearts out for the enthusiastic crowd of about 600 Elvis fans.
Nobody could capture the magic of Elvis himself but each man brought his own brand of Elvis magic in the hopes that this night he would be crowned King for a day. Five contestants performed three songs with the fantastic Expense Account Band who specialize in performing almost all the Elvis tunes you could imagine. They were grand they captured the sound and power of the great TCB band of the Elvis days of yesteryear.
When all was said and done, and each song was sung,and each heart but one was broken, only one man would be King this night but each would share his unique magic with the crowd who loved it and felt, if just for a moment, a little closer to the Real King if only for just a fleeting magical moment.

Portraits of Lian

Written by alex.kruk on 11:56 PM

She is so beautiful, she is so fresh
I had so much fun taking Lian's pictures and it couldn't have been easier since she was like a professional model. She just knew how to look, how to smile, how to move. Today some pictures in color of Lian, my favourite portraits of her from the day.

So Few of You can tell I am editing this post all the time and adding some new pictures. I am still not happy about that ISO ! But well, I have decided to put here some more pictures in black and white.

..and the last one, one of my favourites
