Grade School

I love the smiles of a 3rd grader. They are so adorable, with all those teeth coming
in at all different times.
There is nothing like the smiles of my 3rd grader.

Being a Kid

I used to do this all the time as a kid. Trying as an adult is a whole other deal-thankfully I don't have a picture of my landing. I tried cartwheels again recently and praise the Lord, I do not have a picture of that one either. I'll stick to taking pictures of my kids doing kids things.

Wedding Bells: Daniel & Allison

Daniel & Allison are now formerly a Mr & Mrs!  Their wedding day was romantic, special, & fun!  They had personal touches sprinkled throughout their special day and truly made their wedding day their own.  

I loved Allison's "something blue," and her bouquet was so natural, simply gorgeous.

The boys held up their pant legs for me to show off their wild side.  I loved Daniel's blue high tops paired with bright orange socks.  A very fun way to pay tribute to his favorite Denver Broncos. 

Allison, you are stunning.

I like the groomsmen in black and white.  They pull off the grit of this cement wall with ease.

This was taken before the ceremony and moments before Allison saw Daniel for the first time. I love the sweet anticipation in her hands.  So many delicate moments on such a momentous day.

Daniel & Allison opted for a first look on their wedding day.  A first look, is when couples choose to see each other before the ceremony leaving more time to spend with their guests afterwards.  It was a beautiful moment and absolutely breathtaking to witness.  

This cute pose with the bridal party.....

....quickly turned into this!

I love the tender nuances of a groom taking care of his bride.  His hands bring assurance, comfort, and steadiness.  Some of the slightest of touches, speak volumes.  Daniel God choose you, before the beginning of time, to be Allison's groom.  May His hand be over your every memory together, binding you ever closer with each new day.

 Congratulations Allison & Daniel!  Thank you for letting me share in your incredible day.  It was sheer joy to watch you two become husband & wife.  You make one awesome bride & groom!

Beach Nights

We have been doing this on Sunday nights since school started.

There is almost nothing more beautiful than playing at the beach
right before the sun goes down.
