TJ's Birthday Photo Shoot

Following tradition, we did TJ's annual photo shoot for the panoramic photo that hangs on the wall in his room. This one was one of my favorite shoots of all time - it was just so "him".

Birthday Boy photo shoot...Take 2!

I liked this next shoot much better...I call it "Vintage Boy". Truthfully, it probably isn't the boy, but the gorgeous vintage clothing he is wearing from my fave clothing line, Eden's Bouquet. He is just so freakin' hard to get a good picture of these days...refusing to look at the camera, and only showing those big blue eyes and dark eyelashes. Good thing he is so darn cute, or I would bite him! :) Thus, I digress, and we are now having a vintage themed BBQ Birthday on Memorial Day weekend. I wonder how I will pull off that theme!

Birthday Boy photo shoot...Take 1!

Call it "On the Farm"...I was going for a vintage "farming" sort of shoot, because I was looking at doing a BarnYard Bash sort of birthday party. It failed. I just wasn't "feeling it". So, I took him back inside, dressed him up in Eden's Bouquet...and proceeded to Photo Shoot....Take 2!

"One Year Old" photo shoot

Click on the collage of photos to make it bigger! Isn't she just the cutest little thing? I took Raegan's newborn photos and was delighted when her mom called me for one year old photos! She is such a doll! http://www.sti-photography.com/

Baby Maci Lynn

I was honored to take hospital photos of little Maci Lynn today...isn't she a doll? This is their second little girl, and boy do they make cute kiddos! Congrats Courtney, Adam...and big sister Marley too!

Miss Emily's Baby!

I took a mini photo shoot of Miss Emily's new little baby, Jaret, yesterday. Miss Emily has been the girls dance teacher for the past three years...so I couldn't wait to take photos of this little one! He is so cute! He was almost 6 weeks old...look at those gorgeous eyes!

Autumn family photos of good friends

I took some family photos today of Sara, Travis, Jasmine, Isaac & baby Thomas. I love the way they came out! :)

Camping

What an awesome weekend! We went camping in Door County's Peninsula State Park. It was a blast even with the not-so-perfect weather. We stayed warm all bundled up together (yep- all 7 of us) in the tent at night.


Brian built up the side of our snowmobile trailer so that we could bring all of our camping gear and bikes...he did a fantastic job!






It was a group effort to pitch the tent...even TJ helped!






TJ and Kennedy enjoying Pop Tarts on a rock!



TJ eating a peanut butter sandwich while we wait for everyone to come back from the bathroom on their bikes.






I love the look on his face here!



We did about 20 miles of biking total as a family in the two days we camped. It was beautiful scenery through the woods on the trails!












Kennedy and Daddy sharing a moment at the beach.












Gotta love this pic of Kennedy!



This was Alex's signature pose for this trip.

Brian and Alex did a little kayaking.












What's camping without s'mores?
