happy birthday sissy...

We hope today is full of happiness!   Your the "bestest" aunt to my girls!  Sorry Michael, I didn't have a single pic of MK alone!  Quite possibly this is a picture of my future niece or nephew or both!  Please keep them in your prayers!

I am so glad that I have been missed!  I start back Tuesday with a full schedule! So check back!  Here is Mr. Garrett and his big sister Lilly.

Another way to document the little things.  How sweet are these pictures.  My sweet baby girl is reading.  She is doing so good.  She has made 100% on her first two AR test!  You go girl! 

life as I know it...

Life is a little more precious around our house lately.  I am trying to slow down a bit and remember the little things. Kate inspired me to start documenting life.  As a photographer, I am sooooo BAD about shooting my own family.  You know camera = work type of thing.  I find myself purposely leaving my camera behind on family outings or events. (Not major ~ my child is the star of the play events) I'm talking park, ice cream shop, fair, road trips.  I love sleepy faces.  But i don't ever get my camera out in the morning.  Yes, I always regret it, but it is such a nice break without a camera in my hand. BUT ~  things are a changin'.   I grabbed my camera tonight for just a few minutes and shot exactly what everyone was doing.  No self portraits!  You would thank me (sorry you had to see me today Brooke, thanks for the unbelievable present by the way) This face hasn't seen a drop of make-up for a few weeks!   TG dancing in her room. Sophie watching her, Addi watching the new tube, and Matt cooking away.  So, I encourage you to do the same.  In this digital world, you can't afford not to pick up your camera once a day.  You new moms... oh those sweet first days, you can't take enough pictures.   You will never ,     ever regret it.   Wow, I am usually a girl with few words, who knew?  tonight.....

valentine templates...

Aren't these adorable! I'm printing these as wallets for the girls school valentines. You can use past session photos for these. Just an idea! Lovin, mb

Happy Birthday...

Our dear Pogee is 88 today!  Happy Day sweet lady! We love you with all our heart!

Thank you...

Thanks to my family and friends for your prayers, hospital visits, cards, flowers, food and love.  I am recovering well, thanks to you!  I will be back in the game very soon.

Update...

Thought I would do a quick post so that everyone knew where we have been the last 36 hours.  We found out this Monday that Mika Beth needed to have surgery Wednesday AM.  Everything went well and we just arrived back at home this morning.  I know many of you have called on orders and appointments and one of us will be contacting you and responding to emails as quickly as possible.  I am writing this for Mika Beth as she wanted me to post something so that everyone would understand our slow response...
