Happy 4th of July

Seriously...nothing says Happy Birthday America like a red white & blue tutu.  I know I'm biased but wow Miss Morgan rocked her outfit well!!  This might have been one of the HOTTEST 4th of July's on record. 

Little Miss USA

2 Seconds is about as long as I had to get this picture!

No...she didn't get to eat it...but she did think it was fun to pick up her 1st piece of candy.

Morgan wanted to be in the parade!  Next year :)

Really...next year Morgan you can be in the parade!!

Love Mommy :)

July 3rd Party

Well...I seriously cannot believe the 3rd & 4th of July has come and gone!!  Ahhh that means that the days are already getting shorter.  We wait 9 months for a little bit of heat around here, then go inside to the air conditioning and avoid the mosquitos, well on the 3rd the day was gorgeous..as it should be as it was Hannah's birthday as well :).  The kids had a blast and were so much fun to watch.  We loved having you guys over and can't wait to do it again soon.

A Great Gift

Well, I have to say I have some of the best clients.friends.family you can ask for.  The three kids in this picture touch my heart so much as a mom too because this photo shoot was their idea and a surprise gift for their mom's 50th birthday!!  I don't know what made me tear up more (for all that know me you know I'm a total sap), the wonderful thank you hug & call I received or the pictures.   Linda...you have raised 3 great kids!!

Corey aka The little Charmer, his gorgeous sister Lauren or their Big Brother Chad who finds time for family and let's my own little monkey flirt with him :).

Linda takes great care of my little girl during the day and we appreciate it!  She even deals with my mother bear persona very nicely :).

Baby Casey

Aww...my new nephew!!  He is so so sweet!  With a head full of hair and so alert, happy & healthy, what a little blessing you are to our family.  My niece is such a great big sister...letting us all know to SHHHH...my broder is sleeping...she whispers to us.  Congratulations to my sister & brother in law on their latest edition :)

Morgan wasn't too sure what to think of her daddy holding her new cousin!

Erin & Bryant

Well...we thought the weather wasn't going to cooperate...but it turned out Mother Nature smiled down on us after all!  These two are such a great couple and were SO fun to work with, its easy to see that they have many more fun times ahead as they made me laugh and they laughed for much of the time we spent together.  Bryant actually proposed in Cathedral Square where we shot their pictures...so sweet :)  Erin you are going to make a beautiful bride!  Thanks for the fun day and hope you enjoy your engagement, planning, and your special day :)

Lauren the Happy Graduate :)

Happy Graduation Lauren!  High School is such a crazy time and just when you think you have been in school forever..here comes college.  Be proud of yourself and your achievements and keep working toward your goals and dreams.  I wish you the best of luck :)

Thanks for all of your hard work this year and the many families you have accompanied on photo shoots & my own included...through mosquitos, very hot weather, very cold weather at a beach with a step ladder in tow! I appreciate all of your help.
