Thanksgiving!!! So much to be Thankful for

The girls wanted to have a photo shoot on Thanksgiving. I willingly agreed. They are incredibly beautiful subjects and what better way to celebrate the day but by taking pictures of those I am most thankful for. We even got the "man child" in a few photos. Ya..I know its January and I am just now getting pics up from Nov but I will get caught up soon. I am inspired to be creative!

The Hanson's

2 hours of posing and a little playing and tree climbing thrown in. the boys said it was
"hardwork! ". but, I think it was well worth it.

Where the wild things are......?

why, they were in kansas city playing at Kaleidoscope. had to go last week for a doc appt. so we turned it into a fun day! mom, sis and her kids, me and mine! If you ever get the chance GO!
such fun. free art time...all kinds recycled cool supplies to work with.

took some quick shots while they were all playing. can't wait to go back.

after we left i got some cute pics of R and J...they made crowns while in Kaleidoscope
this one is being framed and put on a wall!!!

happy dress up day

Halloween 2009---I think our most creative yet! It was so much fun. The kids looked awesome. (3 of them actually one contests--oh ya!)
Check out the shots below of our fun weekend!

the ones above were actually taken friday the 30th...our town businesses did a trick or treat the night before Halloween so that crew got to dress up twice. The babies waited till halloween night cuz it was COLD friday night.

you know we cant let the kids have all the fun. check out the adult costumes! this really is one of my favorite things to do every year. halloween or no DRESSING UP IS FUN STUFF!

All together now.....

We got the whole family together today. What an easy shoot this was. Its hard to take a bad pic when everyone your shooting is so PURDY!

this one has been a sick kid for few weeks now...it was good to see his smiliey face.

And this one...... this is a GOOD MAN! truly truly. don't let the grump fool ya. LOL

family...hold them close.

I am so thankful to have such people in my life and to capture their warm hearts in pictures. xoxo
