I have been wanting to do a display of canvases in my hallway upstairs. We have an open loft type hallway upstairs and there are four wall spaces, which I thought would be great for my four kids. I just had no idea what I wanted to put there, until last night. Ken was pitching balls to Bryce and Kayley and the younger two just kept getting too close to the bat. The sun was setting and the light was so pretty on my front porch, so I asked if they wanted to do a couple of pictures with mommy. These were taken in our front foyer and I’m pretty sure this is what I’m going to do for my upstairs hall. Now I just need to decide and then try to get a couple of good ones of Kayley and Bryce to go with them.

My sister came to visit this weekend so we took her son and my son out for some pictures.  I had promised my son that we would do his 6 year old pictures with his new skateboard.  My sister was looking for some pictures for her son’s birthday invitation, so she brought his guitar for some pictures.  We had a blast finding different locations around town.

To say that we have a busy life is somewhat of an understatement.  I had found that in the business of life I had not been taking as many pictures of my kids growing up.  The daily life types of things that make up our family.    This week I tried to be more purposeful about capturing life.  I captured this when I woke Brady up from his nap.  I just love the sleepy way he wakes up and then is ready for the rest of the day.  

Fast asleep. . . .

Aww - do I have to wake up????

Why are you taking pictures of me?  

I guess I’ll get up for a cookie.

My baby girl turned 4!  I am still in disbelief that the last four years have gone so quickly.  She loves posing for me and was really excited to have some time in the studio with just mommy.   Here are a couple of my favorites.
