We took off to Branson with our close friends this holiday weekend and had some fun.  We had 6 children (8 yrs. old being the oldest) between the 4 adults, so needless to say we were outnumbered!  🙂

We ran into rain, but for the most part it was nice…not too hot or cold.  These kids are so much braver than I was at their age with some of the rides we were able to talk them into.  LOL!

We went to The Landing for dinner and a waterworks (with cool fire. 🙂 ) show Saturday night.  There were these kids that could’nt have been older than 18 playing drums with buckets.  They were really good too!

This was our view from dinner.

Abby was totally outnumbered, but she handled it so well.  🙂

I told you it was a cool show.  😉

We made the men take them on this ride because we didn’t feel like getting wet.  After seeing how wet they got i’m really glad we didn’t go!

The giant barn swing.  I can NOT believe my son got on this.  It swings you just over a 90 degree angle…pretty awesome.

Hope everyone had a great weekend.  Now get back to work!  😉

I’m having so much fun down here in NOLA.  It is awesome to meet and learn from such talented photographers, not to mention all the networking!  Tamara and Audrey hooked us up with some real cuties.  (and when I say cuties I do mean children!  🙂 )

Wow, I always love going to visit family…but it’s good to be home! The kids had fun, and we even got to celebrate my 2 younger one’s birthdays while we were there. I know there are a lot of pictures below, but I just couldn’t narrow it down anymore!

Things are going to be busy around here over the next couple weeks, working on 2 different projects…more on that later.

Here are a few of my beautiful niece…

These two amaze me. They live 2000 miles apart and yet they have been the best of friends since they were babies.

ACK! I can’t believe my little girl is 5…and going to kindergarten! Man, I wish someone would have told me just how early all that girly stuff started…i’m in over my head, ha! 🙂

Can anyone guess who she is dressed up as??? That’s right, Hannah Montana! (like my house isn’t dramatic enough anyway. haha)

Our baby is one! Time flies when your sleep deprived, ha!

While I was visiting back home I got to catch up with my old friend and his wife! I had so much fun visiting and shooting with her. I even got to take some pics of them together, enjoy a little peek guys!

Til next time,

I will be running away (oops, I mean going on vacation, ha ha) July 5th-16th. Session availability is filling up quickly, so if you need to make an appointment you better call soon! Also, due to increasing vendor pricing there will be a price increase beginning July 15th. If you book your appointment, pay the session fee and pre-purchase a collection before July 15th, I will honor the current pricing for your session. Sessions must be completed before the end of 2008 for this special.

And because I hate posting without a picture…

Now THIS is one of those lazy, hazy days of summer! 😉
