diva through AND through

This little girl never fails to make me smile. Despite very occasional breakdowns, adamant opinions of wardrobe, and highly (I cannot stress this enough) opinionated mentality, she is such a delight. Her kindergarten photos came home yesterday and again she looks like her diva self. Melts my heart :)



Austyn Marie - 5yrs - kindergarten





pigskin & beasts

These are some random photos from the end of September and beginning of October. Enjoy!

Tayt, Nash, and I stopped at the fire hall one afternoon and T tried Grandpa Homer's fire helmet on.

Enjoying a very cold October morning CUDA football game. We parked along the fence so we didn't have to get out.

Peyton's serious face after their first season WIN! ... all boy - all business...

This is what happens when I turn my back while making supper on the stove. The Beast was literally dancing on the table.

Casey & Jake - Love photos

Yesterday I had the privilege of photographing Casey and Jake for their engagement photos... Casey is calling them Love Photographs. It turned out to be a beautiful day! This was my very first "photoshoot" and we were all amazed at how well they turned out. Mom was my wingman and got just as many great shots as I did. When she gets her photos posted, I will link to those here as well. Here are some of my favorites...

Until I can save up and purchase the MacBook Pro I've been longing for with Photoshop, Casey is going to help me with the Photoshopping. These next ones she played with a little bit and I'm guessing these were their favorites. ;) I'm excited and nervous at the same time to do my next "photoshoots." I hope they all turn out as well!

Thank you to Casey and Jake for the opportunity and also for being great to work with!

Make sure you check out some of Mom's shots here and more here on Casey's blog!

God Bless Baby Jax

I had to look at my calendar... almost a month ago was Jax's baptism and I haven't gotten these photos on my computer. My apologies! I have no excuse really.

Aside from the kids thinking they could run wild in the church, things went very well. Jax did not scream when they blessed him. Luke screamed for other disciplinary reasons. But we had a very nice time. Here are a few of my favorites from that night.
