you've got the cutest little baby face...

My love for my sweet little niece is immeasurable....she is pure BLISS.

Oh snow...

I haven't seen snow like this since I was a little girl...I  have told my children stories about it but I don't think they could really understand until now. It feels a little magical to me..like living inside a snow globe. This is the beautiful kind...soft, fluffy...so white..not that grimy end-of-the-year-snow. It would be easy to complain about the cold..the slow, slippery driving...but really, nothing can bring this overly busy, hectic, crazy world to a grinding halt better than a good old fashioned snow storm. Take the opportunity to snuggle up and slow down~

Full Circle

I can't believe we've come full circle! It was just about a year ago that I took this little guys picture...he is pure JOY! His Mommy and Daddy are very special to our family, actually to so many families~ They play a huge role in our community by setting a positive example for our youth. I hope you have a very Merry Christmas....little JOYFUL family :)

Boys and Tractors...

On the heels of my "Girls and Trains" shoot.....now we have "Boys and Tractors!"

Chasing....everything!

A couple of weeks ago I posted pictures called "Chasing fairies with ~E~" A sweet collection of pictures from an afternoon of fairing hunting with a little friend. Well, today I bring you..."Chasing..everything! with the ~P~Family. We chased everything....a llama, 2 donkeys, a cow, a horse, a pony, and a family of pigs...oh, and some chickens and kittens! And I chased kids! It was a muddy, hilarious experience! Thanks guys~ xo

Everyday cuteness

So...this weekend I met up with a friend to take some pictures of her kids. I kicked myself for using my zoom lens because for most of the time they were stuck to me..pulling me along to show me this or that...and just randomly snuggling up to me. I had so much fun being with them that I didn't get as many pictures as I would have liked, but if success is measured in love than~ we were a HIT!  I broke the pictures up into three different sections...you'll see why. Enjoy!
