The Sun is Out

Posted on February 27, 2008




Winter is getting long, but at least the sun is out today! Just wanted to share a few more photos from a session last week. Love the green walls–so fun! I always have the hardest time deciding on what pictures to post here. I seem to want to post them all! I just love the last picture. It reminds me of my girls when they would get tired and rub their eyes. Happy Wednesday to you!

Guess Who is 4?

Posted on February 25, 2008

Happy 4th birthday Tatum!! My daughter Tatum turns four today. I am not sure where time has gone. I did not realize how grown up she looks until I was editing these pictures from today. No more baby face! Also pay close attention to the hair cut she gave herself a week or so ago. She did not have bangs before then–see the really short ones under the long pieces. I need to get her in to fix the new hair style, but I am not sure what they will be able to do. The shortest pieces are really really short. Good thing Uncle Brian’s wedding is not until May–she is a flower girl!

Hope you are all having a great day and gearing up for more snow!

And the Winner is…..

Posted on February 24, 2008

Heather Brockway–nominated by Laurie. Below is the winning entry. I look forward to showing you all pictures from this session. Congratulations Heather! PS I hope you are all enjoying the sunshine today!!! I hope Spring will be here soon.

“I would like to nominate Heather Brockway. Heather has 7 children ages 21 to 3. She is an amazing woman. All of the children are involved in sports or other activities and she manages to get to everything somehow! Her house is always neat and orderly and she can have 10 different things going at once, but her children are definitely her top priority.

Heather can be in the middle of making dinner and when she has a moment that she can break away, she will stop and play a game with the kids. I have witnessed this several times and I am in awe of how she manages to do it.

She makes each of her children feel so special, as if they were the only one. The love that the children have for each other says so much about the love that she and her husband have shown to their children. All the children respect their parents and each other so much.

There are so many things that they all do together as a family and they all enjoy it! They love the simple things in life and they have fun with everything they do, whether it is putting together a puzzle or going to visit friends and relatives.

Now this is the part that makes me cry. I appreciate so much what they have done for my niece, Sarah. Sarah’s mom died when she was 9 and her dad remarried and then divorced a few years ago. Sarah had no place to live after the divorce. She was dating Heather’s oldest son, Greg who is the most amazing young man in the world. They took Sarah in and made their home, her home. Each one of the kids loves her like she is a sister. And she loves and cares about each one like they were her very own family.

I am so grateful to them for all they have done. It can’t be easy to have a house full to the brim with children and still find room to take in another. Sarah is treated like one of their own children in every way. Heather does her laundry, has birthday parties for her, and the list goes on and on. And the best part is that Sarah and Greg are now engaged and so Sarah will have them all in her life forever!

I could go on for a long time about what a great job Heather has done as a mom. She makes me feel like a real whimp, having only one child!”

Happy Valentines Day

Posted on February 14, 2008

Hope you all had a wonderful day. I know my girls loved opening their Valentines from all their friends at school today. Kenadie has to wait until tomorrow and that has been REALLY hard for her tonight when her older sisters are going through all of their cards–and candy! So I thought I would show you all what Kenadie is handing out at school tomorrow–along with a tootsie roll sucker–her favorite.

Sneak Peek

Posted on February 6, 2008





Wow what a busy week, but I love it. These two were the cutest “models” today. I had the hardest time choosing which images to post so sorry for so many. I just love photographing in Merchan’t Platt. The homes have so much character and most of them have closed in front porches with wonderful light! These two are just too cute! I even left with a surprise–a drawing of me taking Ellie and Jack’s picture courtesy of Ellie.
