Thanksgiving Day

First Snow

trick-or-treat

Mr. C really got into Halloween this year. He walked quite a bit on his own and held out his pumpkin for candy and everything. He's 17 months old and growing up fast.

"J" family session

"K" family session

I spent the morning with this wonderful, fun, and loving family. Here is a preview of a few of the photos from our time together.

Visitors

Mom and Dad are here for a visit. Such good sports they are. :)

All caught up

I am finally all caught up on my photos for the blog. From now on the date on the post will be the day the photo was taken. For the most part, anyway. :) Thanks to everyone who is checking.

Engaged

A few weekends ago I had the privilege to spend the morning photographing this amazing couple. They are so in love with each other and looking forward to their upcoming wedding.

4 year old

Mr. C turned 4 in August and with the move I never got 4 year old photos of him that I was happy with. A month later in the new place we did a photo session and it went great. He was in a good mood and actually wanted his photo taken. :) This is one of my favorites.

Touch

I just love the little things that kids do. This one made me smile.

The toy says "touch an animal to hear what sound it makes".

So Mr. C touches the animal sitting next to him...

My flowers (a few more)

These are the last photos I took of my flowers at our MN house. Whenever I had a hard day and needed a pick me up I would go out and walk in my flowers. It was such a calming thing. Today was a day that I could have used a walk in my flowers. Why? Everything and nothing. Lots of little things all adding up I guess. And behind it all is the fact that I had to say goodbye to the people and places I loved in MN. It is hard to say goodbye. I am convinced that this move is a good thing (the always optimist in me), but it doesn't and hasn't made it any easier to say goodbye. To my friends in MN, I miss you.
