You’ve seen Missy & Cody on the blog before – she’s one of my BEST friends – and I love taking their pictures!

Missy brought her mom and dad along for their early morning session this year!

That’s her first-born. By the time I blog this – he will be SEVENTEEN! WHAT!!!

So – let me tell you – I know this little guy. I know him well. But he did NOT want that sweater on. And it threw him. HARD. You’ll see his smile at the end of the session – but I assure you – we worked for it!

And those little hugs – made for GREAT pictures! He turned five a few weeks after our session – and the times of holding him like this are almost gone!

A WORM!

Scroll back up – look at that GORGEOUS best friend of mine!

The men in Missy’s life!

Her boys!

Isn’t he such a handsome little guy!

THAT is the little guy I know and love!

OH MY WORD! This next series of pictures! MY FAVORITE!

LOVE LOVE LOVE!!

MISSY – I know it doesn’t NEED to be said – but I LOVE YOU SO MUCH!!!
