sweetness

what do my kids love to do when I say its time to go???
they dart out the door and run.....
this is the new thing... they love to run, run, run!

no i did not pick out those boots for ella
and no i did not pick out those socks for gabe.
but whats a mom to do when her children think THEY know what they want to wear...
I say let them wear it!

Gabe fell and scraped his knee....

and sis is there to comfort.....

and then there is this face, that is to die for!

And this is what they did when momma said... its time to go!

They did this all on their own... if I would have asked for this I am pretty

sure it would not have turned out so cute!

God has SO blessed me.. I am trying to soak up every moment with these two sweet things, because I know that the day they go to school will come all to soon!

Thank you Lord for these two sugary babies!

sweet family....

This sweet family took some pictures with us .... check them out on the website!

Thanks for havin fun with us!

blessings sent our way...

Since mentioning on the blog that I would be so blessed to take pics.....
God has sent some sweet blessings my way.

This is the Davidson family,
and they have now welcomed their new baby girl into the world!
Congratulations to one of the sweetest families around.

The next shoot was of my two nieces.

Are they not the cutest things you have ever seen....

They will be celebrating their birthday with Minnie Mouse style!

We were so blessed to have this family in over the past weekend.

The Swartzentrubers are from Ohio, so we always cherish our time with them.

I hope you enjoyed. I have loved every minute of it!

More of each on the photo website....

My little man...

Today, Gabe told me he wanted to take some pictures and so that is just what we did!

He picked out his outfit HEAD to TOE and he did ALL of the posing!

Maybe I did train him right.... hee hee

Oh.... and little princess had NOTHING to do with pictures today,

except for the one she was trying to act like Gabe in...

passing on traditions...

The other night we were out at my parents house popping popcorn and I had a little step back in time.... as kids we used to always end our weekends with Sunday night popcorn, snickers (bite-size yes they have to be bite-size), and apples!

Now do not judge until you try it! Popcorn is just the side item but, when you eat the apples and snickers you take a bite of each... kind of taste like a candy apple! YUM!

So as we were making popcorn I was telling my parents we need to do this with the kids sometime... Well what do you know, my dad had his own little stash of snickers! Yeah! We told the kids all about it and they LOVED it! I love passing on these kind of traditions.

We put these boots to the test..

Today Ella was able to actually try these babies out!
It was actually nice to see some precipitation after all of this dryness...
Thank you Lord for the rain!






Loving Life Photography
In April, I was finally able to purchase something I had always dreamed of.. my camera! It has been so delightful to be able to learn things about it. My dad has been an amazing help, role model, and advice giver. I would not be half the woman I am today without he and mom. Thanks so much you two for letting me work with you!
It has been an amazing blessing being able to use it to take pictures of my littles. Since getting, my new love, others have asked me to take pics for them.. and so I did. I love it! To get a good pic for someone is one thing that makes me come alive. Capturing moments for family and friends has made me realize that God has blessed me with this desire! Thank you Lord... So why am I posting about this??? Well I have had enough people wanting pics so I decided to go ahead and make myself a website... Yeah! So would love to do pics for you if you just so need them! Its definately a nice little side job, because being a mommy is my real job! Just wanted to introduce my new passion with you all!
