Angela asked me about taking pictures of her daughter & granddaughter – hopefully for CHRISTMAS!!
Thankfully we had a mild-ish day and were able to schedule a session!
WAIT WAIT!! You’re going to take pictures of ME!?
SHE IS SUCH A DARLING LITTLE SWEETIE!!
STAY TUNED for the rest of their session!!
Courtney’s mom asked me to take pictures of their WHOLE family over Thanksgiving! She saw the pictures of Courtney & Dave and decided she NEEDED some of her own!
Courtney & Dave – he said – didn’t we JUST do this!?
And the baby! When you’re the ONLY baby in the family – you get ALL the attention!
THE WHOLE FAMILY!!
JUST THE GUYS!!
JUST THE GIRLS!!
Babies have MAGICAL powers – especially when it comes to grandparents!!
ADORABLE!!
DARLING!!

The Friday after Thanksgiving – I met with the *B* family!
It was a RATHER cold morning – so we opted to stay indoors!

We didn’t think my brother would make it home for the holidays this year – but he did! His wife stayed in Ohio and worked but he brought the kiddos out for Thanksgiving!
On Wednesday night – Thanksgiving Eve – Jared & Fitzy were in Cleveland for a BASKETBALL game!! They stayed at the Westin and had a GREAT time!
BUT – my controlling momma heart was kind of FREAKING OUT a little!! I wasn’t able to really breathe until they pulled in the driveway! WHEW!!
They got in a little after 2 on Thanksgiving and grabbed a plate of food and then opened Christmas presents!!
COUSINS!!!
Enoch 5 – Fitzgerald (who is asking to change his name to just Fitzy) 7 – Rowyn 7 (soon to be 8) – Jack 3 (so close to 4) – Judah 6 – QUITE THE CREW!
That’s only the 23rd gun to add to their collection!!
Rowyn wants to be an ARTIST!! BRING ON THE PAINTS & CANVAS!!
Judah – have you been noticing his faces!! They are the best!
Jack calls me Daniel – and Samm loves it! It IS pretty adorable!
SO MUCH CHRISTMAS!!
My sister is OBSESSED with the poop emoji – so my dad got her a special gift – PASS THE POOP!!
And every year we have to line the kiddos up and get the NEW picture – they are growing TOO FAST!!
We had a GREAT Thanksgiving with our families!!

My cousin Jake messaged me about some announcements he needed to make – and was hoping I would photograph their happy news!
