It’s been such a wonderful first year with Miss Ruby! Have really LOVED watching her grow up. She’s a real sweetie pie! Love this sweet girl and her family very much!

And looking so very adorable!! Love this boy and his family! 

It’s embarrassing for me to admit, that this photo session was a Christmas gift for my daughter and her cousins…and…we didn’t get around to doing it until almost the end of JULY! Ya’ll this is my life. But, it was so well worth the wait. We had the absolute best time together this night. We laughed so very much. It was surely 1,000,000 degrees outside and we were all drenched by the time we were done. It’s hard to explain exactly how special the relationship between these girl is-it’s pretty special and sweet and a true gift of God. I love watching them grow up together and hope that these photos will also be a reminder of their innocence and their love for one another. How awesome to know that you’ll always have these friends in your life…what a GIFT!

And now for your entertainment of the day. When you are between the ages of 10 and 14, you come up with some really fun ideas. We had several ideas that the girls wanted to try that night. But this one was…by far…the most fun! I haven’t laughed this hard in such a long time. The outtakes on this are hilarious. It doesn’t seem hard, but it is difficult to get 5 girls heads swung up in unison! 🙂

I love you girls so much!! Thanks for such a fun night!

This super sweet Mom and Dad win my award this year for “Calmest Under Pressure”!! You guys, you cannot see it here in these photos, but we got a rainstorm to end all rainstorms that blew up smack in the middle of this photo session. It was the wildest weather-we literally went from sprinkles, to blue skies, to dark and stormy sideways rain with thunder, to rainbows and back to sunshine! This crew were quite the troopers through the mess and it was all worth it if you ask me! What a beautiful family! Thanks to April, Tim, Taylor and Nicholas for a fantastic and crazy memorable session!
