Catching up.....

This week has been such a whirlwind.....
Adison broke his arm just a few days before
Carey's shoulder surgery.....After the surgery,
we had yet another ER visit for high blood
pressure......Finally, everyone is home & safe,
I think...... for now anyway :)
*
Needless to say, I am way behind on editing
& everything else!!!!!! Thanks to all of you for
being patient as we keep the health economy
boosted :)

I met up with this family over the weekend
and I had such a good time watching them
through my lens. Leanne & Chad, thanks
so much for letting me a part of your day...

Happy Birthday to my sweet Ally-Girl

Today, my sweet Ally-Girl turned 15......how can it be?
It seems like just yesterday I *met* you for the first time...
I remember your first laugh, word and adored the way you
called me "Mama." I have had so many special moments with
you and I thank God for bringing you into my life.

I love that we have our special talks, movie nights, hysterical
laughing sessions, scrapbooking, shopping, spa days and more.

I wrote this for you years ago and wanted to remind you today..

Your smile has brightened our lives
your laughter has renewed our hearts
we thank Heaven for little girls
for we have been touched by and Angel

Thank you Ally, Dad & I love you more
than you will ever realize!!!!

Twins???!!!!!

So, in a moment of impulse this afternoon, my best friend
& I decided to take our three year old little girls to pick
out their own puppies......you know because surely, their
just isn't enough chaos with four kids and one dog already...
I mean, if you came to my house, you would likely think
you were at the library or spa or something....it is always
quiet and peaceful......just ask Grandma Diane.... :)
*
So, here are the new twins.....Charley is Kendall's
& Marley is Leg'na's.....aren't they adorable?
How much trouble can they really be?



Kendall told me in the car that she is the Mama
and Charley is her baby.....she just adores him....


Leg'na was a good mother hen too....she got Marley
comfortable for the ride home.....

Mama's and their new babies.....
Here's one more with our little Charley....

Boy fun!!!

This session was back to back with the session
posted below, titled Girl fun!
*
It's funny because boys and girls are so
different......the girls were smiling sweetly
and ready for their session....giggling,
skipping along...twirling......
*
The boys were ready to PLAY, wrestle and RUN!
I had so much fun with "N," "J" & "O" again :)
I love to be challenged and sometimes I really
work for the shots.....I think I participated in
a triathalon during this session! hahaha!
*
I have two boys and two girls, so I can appreciate
the differences of both and love photographing them all!
*
Thanks Alicia, for having me take pics again
& for the referral! Both sessions were full of fun!
*
Boys, thanks for sharing your fruit snacks with me!












Girl fun!!!

When I arrived for this session, "K" & "S"
were ready to have some fun! We walked
through their beautiful neighborhood for
some scenic pics and they even made a
few new "friends" along the way!
*
Girls, I had so much fun with you & your Mama!
Thanks for spending time with me :)
*
This was "K's" sassi-ness .....LOVE it!

You would never know that these flowers
really stink by her smile! hahaha! "S," you
could fool anyone, great job!



"S" made a new friend, Comedy, during our session!

Hold on and never let go......
