I can’t wait to post some picts of our vacation! We got our family pictures by – Monica Martin (which I’m so excited to see) and we did a few shoots down there, including the amazing- Tiffany
I’m so behind on emails, phone calls and editing I will have to wait a few days to post, but here is one of my favorites in the mean time.

fun sunday evenings
One of my girls favorite things to do is go to grandpa’s house on Sunday. They LOVE trolling around the garden picking peas and veggies and fruit from the tree’s. Thanks Dad for being the best Grandpa ever!
On a side note. Our house got hit by lighting the other night during the crazy storms and our internet got fried.
Anyway if you have tried emailing in the last couple of days, that is why I haven’t responded. It is up an running now and I’m trying to get caught up.
| I LOVE these. I love the colors, I love the processing, I love the scenery. I love everything about these. They are simply beautiful. I would give anything for a backdrop like this in my backyard, or just accessible to me! It is absolutely PERFECT! Fabulously done my dear! ( Sep 8th, 2010 7:19 am)Your girls are getting so big. I love the shot with Mya and the peaches the colors are beautiful! ( Aug 25th, 2010 4:09 am) |

Hi Kate,
( Sep 23rd, 2010 1:20 am)Do you mind to share where you got your girls’ dresses? the photo looks fantastic!
Huge above your fireplace FOR SURE!!!! Gorgeous and totally worth the long trek TWO TIMES to get out there.

( Sep 22nd, 2010 6:31 pm)Lindsay- Yes we went to this amazing vineyard that Monica found for us. It took 2hrs to get there but it was so worth it. We had our family pictures there, but didn’t have time to do the girls so Dan & I drove back the next day to do the girls. Totally worth the drive. And Lyla’s hair does look blond in that picture but it is still pretty dark:)
( Sep 22nd, 2010 5:58 pm)Kate- I can already dying to see the rest of these!!! It looks like you were at a vineyard…??
