The Party

She loves doing hair, the blow dryer turns on too!

Pinkalicious dress and her new twinkle toe shoes. She is such a girl!!

A Barbie and a Barbie movie. The Barbie came with a flat iron that lets you color your or Barbie's hair pink!! It is just chalk but she loves it. Thanks Caley family!!

The decorations, I am cheap folks, I made most everything myself from construction paper and leftover wrapping paper. I did buy the crown for her to wear for the day. And the york patties are her and Nathan's fave.

The Barbie cake. The puppy is a ring and Barbie's skirt lights up. She insisted on using it for a nightlight last night! I hope she had a good day, we went to McDonalds for lunch and saw Whinnie The Pooh after. A nice man found out it was her birthday at the theater and bought Nathan and Nora kid snack packs. It was really nice of him and they loved it. I cannot wait to see how much she will grow up this year. She is so special and we love her to pieces!

Nora is 4 today!!

Well folks, she is no longer a baby. She turns four today. I love her so much, I cried in bed last night like a baby just thinking about the joy she has brought to our family.

We love you Nora!

Videos of Nathan at T-Ball

I am so proud of Nathan! He did such a good job in t-ball. This was his first sport and I think he will stick with it. He caught on pretty quickly and progressed very well in the few months he was in it. Go Nathan!!

Last T-Ball Game!

Nathan and Caleb's team photo. Our kids are great! Love that Caleb is giving the thumbs up!

This is one of Nathan's buddies, he also goes to church with us. They had tons of fun wrestling in between innings.

Maternity Photo Shoot - New Location!

Dan and I have been searching for a great photo location since we moved to the valley. I do believe that we have found it. It has a rail road track, with a curve.

It has some amazing doors with a great set of knockers!

Look at this one, just amazing doors!
We drove by it one day and I was amazed by the location. This session is the first time we have ever been back. It worked out well and we didn't even use all the spots we could have used. We will definitely use it again.

I think this picture is the largest I could make Aly's belly look. She is due just shy of three weeks but her belly is just so tiny!

For this session Alyssa wanted to go with muted tones. They photograph so well, very natural and relaxed.

This was all Drew, he didn't know that Dan was shooting. I love it, a little risque'.

It was so hard for her to get her legs up over that rail! Thanks for playing along Aly!

There was a very small window to get this shot. Dan was laying on the ground to frame it properly. The effort paid off I think!


This last one is just so cute! She hardly looks like she is preggers but I think it is beautiful.
thanks for a great session Aly and Drew!
