Sweet little girls.......
These 2 cuties are cousins. Their moms wanted some shots of the 2 of them together.


Olivia: was a little reluctant at first, but she warmed up quick.
Dana: didn't really care...
Aren't they sweet. Olivia has the sweetest little lips.
Hold on tight!
I love this of their little hands...

Matthew + Brooke:

Today is their 5 year anniversary and they wanted to document and celebrate their 5 years of marriage together. I think it was a wonderful idea and you can tell that they are still deeply in love. I am so honored to have been a part of this day. We had actually realized that we went to HS together too. Congrats you two!

Park:
we went to the park for a bit tonight so that the girls could play. megan is laykin's cousin from little rock... aren't they sweet!!!
laykin says... " my cousin "... get away!

AW.... My mom & stepdad got a new puppy and Laykin thinks she is hers... Isn't she the sweetest. She (the puppy) was a bit tired at this time a day, ya know after a long day of playing then having to turn around and look your best for the camera, it's never easy! I think she pulled it off though. I mean... just look at those eyes. You want one don't cha???
And those wrinkles... I WANT ONE!!!!

phew.... Last post for today... I had a lot of stuff to post. It is now 11pm & I am tired....

This was the 3rd... as we were headed out to watch the fireworks, our annual ritual...
laykin was the driver.... Well, with a little help : ) The sunset... ew. eee. aww.

I just love this.. so sweet! BOOM!!!

These are just some random images from the past couple weeks...


This one is her wishing winter were here, I know she's CRAZY... but cute! :)This is in our yard. A couple weeks ago, Kevin was kayaking and I told Laykin that we were gonna take our camera's outside and see what we could find to photograph.This one cracks me up.... winter one day, summer the next.. I think that this was the same morning that we were doing our nature shoot outside... She took off and returned with her swimsuit and a life-jacket on. And, oh yes... Look down.... high heals. She is stylin'....
It was funny because I went in her room to see what she was doing and she was down on the floor playing with something, but she couldn't reach it b/c her puffy life-jacket was in her way, but she wasn't willing to give in.
We did end up going to the lake that aftenoon incase you were wondering.

Laykin and her camera... smile mom!
Such a pretty little face...

This was the other night when we got home... The evening light is lovely. She had her new pj's on that her daddy told her were beautiful when she showed then off. She quickly corrected him that they are CUTE not beautiful. The dancing fairy princess....
