I had so much fun meeting this wonderful family (once again) for a photo shoot yesterday.  We really lucked out and had THE most gorgeous weather.  Same family, same setting, just one year later.  I couldn’t believe how much their son had changed in one year.  He looks so much more grown-up now.  Not too grown up though, I don’t want to make his mother cry! LOL  When you see your child every day, you don’t see the difference as much, but as an outsider looking in, it’s always amazing.

Sweet “Z” was having fun at first and then wasn’t too terribly thrilled with me hovering around him with my big black box.  I think he might be camera-ed (is that a word?!) out! LOL  Soooo, what did we do??  We let boys do what they do best . . . play with sticks, mud and grass!

I can’t show any of the great family pics, because I don’t want to give away any Christmas card material.  However; I will let you know that lots of “Z” smiles are in those photos.  It’s obvious that he loves his Mom and Dad!

Here’s your sneak peek M and L.  I hope you like them!

I liked this one in black and white too!

We did find something that made him happy - his blanket.

Another happy moment, finding this humongous stick.

What a find!


And he’s done! LOL

Here are some more cuties that we met on our Michigan trip this summer.  If I keep trudging along, I’ll actually show all of them to you!  They were the sweetest, kindest children and I thoroughly enjoyed each and every one of them.  Their parents were pretty awesome too!  Maybe when I finish sharing all of them, I can finally explain how unbelievably wonderful this trip was and how much it meant to me and my family.

Here is Miss "C" - doesn’t she have the sweetest face?!

Mr "I" - great soulful eyes!

Miss "M" ~ a total sweetheart and she just loved the camera!

Miss "L" - absolutely adorable.

Miss "E" - What could be more fun that blowing bubbles with your Daddy?!

That’s all for tonight.  I hope everyone is having a wonderful week!

Just trying to get a closer peek!! LOL

I decided to take a break and enjoy the beautiful cool weather for a bit.  I am currently in the holiday rush and extremely busy.  I’ve been glued to the computer working on photographs, in the hope that I’m helping make Christmas extra special for others.

So, here I am sharing a picture of my two sweeties taken on my break this evening.  Well, it’s now time to say goodbye to my break and hello to proofing pictures!!  ‘Tis the season!!

Whooooo-eeeeeeee, was Miss Sadie ever fast today. LOL  Yep, that’s right.  Speedy Sadie was at it again, leaving her Mom and I eating dust in her path!!!  She did NOT want her picture taken today.  There were way too many toys just begging to be played with . . . by Sadie’s hands of course.  Things that sang, sparkled and mooed.  I guess anything that moos really is more interesting than the photographer taking the picture huh?! LOL  Well, unless said photographer does "Moo" . . . . which I did today, along with meowing, being a monkey and anything else that would make Sadie crack a smile.  Oh yeah, I pulled out all the stops and when all was said and done, we got this . . . . (insert huge smiley face here) LOL

Can you believe it Rayne?! LOL  All our hard work paid off and there’s more!!

Enjoy the weekend!!
