CHRISTMAS FUN WITH FAMILY!

So, we made it back from Denver in time for Christmas with family! The airport was craziness...and we didn't have our baggage when we got back. But it was delivered to our door the following day, which was pretty impressive! :) We had family come over to our house the first night, and then we headed out to spend time with extended family. It was so wonderful. This is my favorite time of the year!!

Jeremy and I got a new iMac for the office, and it has a fun built-in camera and is installed with "photobooth"! I had my first Mac Photobooth experience in New York with Becker, Liana, Jessica Claire and others, and it was such a total blast! I couldn't wait to get Jeremy and our family and friends in front of the camera!!! :) What better time than Christmas?! :)

How good-lookin' is my dad?!


My beautiful mother, Cindy....




Those two people are where I got my wonderful good looks....

My handsome husband took such a fantastic series of shots that I had trouble choosing my favorites! Hilarious!!!

My wonderful Meemee! She's so much fun!


My brother-in-law who cannot pick on me enough, Brad... and, yes, this handsome hunk of a man is currently single, girls! ;)

SNOWED IN!!!

Hello, everyone! I am writing in from Breckenridge, Colorado where Jeremy and I are vacationing with Matt and Jenna Walker of Jenna Walker Photography. What was originally supposed to be a die-hard ski week for the four of us quickly changed once we found out about the baby to a ski week for the boys and a relaxing and pampering week for the girls. We have had such a blast!! A major snow storm has moved into the area, and we are basically snowed in here in Breckenridge....which isn't so bad! :) Jenna and I enjoyed an afternoon of shopping and fun while our hubbies tore up the fresh powder on the mountain with Jenna's sister Katie. It's been awesome! We're expecting a lot more snow before the storm is over with. We're just hoping we get to make it back to Denver and catch our flight out so that we can spend Christmas with our families. It looks like we shouldn't have any problems once Friday rolls around....but you never know.



Hope you all are enjoying your week! Merry Christmas, everyone!!! I'll update again soon!

IT HAPPENED OVERNIGHT!!!

One day I didn't have a belly at all......then I wake up with a baby bulge! Yep, it's official! I'm finally showing, and I couldn't be more excited about it. I mean, its about time to have something to show for all of the "morning"sickness I have been dealing with. I prefer to call it "24-hour" sickness. :) That all is getting much better these days. I actually have my appetite back now! Yaaay!

Jeremy and I were so excited about my new belly that we had to take a few pictures. He took these the other night after we got in from dinner. If I look tired it's because I WAS! And I AM! haha! This baby is stealing all of my energy! :)



The firm Jeremy works for had their Christmas party the following night, and this was taken just before we left for the party. My belly was pooching this much before I even got a chance to eat!! :) hehehe!!


We have a doctor's appointment tomorrow. I can't wait to hear the heartbeat again!!!

JENNA & KEVIN

I had a blast in Little Rock with Jenna and Kevin shooting their engagements! They are such a wonderful, fun, and sweet couple. I cannot wait for their wedding in March. The ceremony will take place on a beautiful beach in the Dominican Republic.....and they're taking me with them! :) It will be my first wedding to shoot out of the country, and I am so very excited. Here are a few favorites from their engagements:

BRIAN & SARAH

I was thrilled when Liana Lehman asked if Joshua Smith and I would like to help her out with Brian and Sarah's wedding at the Biltmore in Atlanta a few weeks ago. They are a wonderful couple, the location was spectacular, and the lighting we had to work with was so great! Here are a few favorites:



















Thank you Brian and Sarah for allowing me to be a part of your day! It was wonderful!! And thank you to Liana - I always enjoy shooting with you, girl! I miss you!!
