Joey

This post is by Emily because she wants to show off her new adorable kitten Joey to Mom, Beth, and Matt. There were more pictures but Jenn wouldn't put them on because they were slightly fuzzy and Jenn's blog has "standards"! :)
Hmm... delicious little rock.

Yes? What did you want? I'm just innocently sitting here. I never get into trouble.

Die pink seahorse!!!

String's more fun.

He looks like he has little hands here! So cute.

So exhausted! Too much playtime.

Wedding Dresses + Sand + Surf = FUN!

Shad, Nicolle, and I headed to the beach yesterday to have a "Trash the Dress" photoshoot.
IT. WAS. A. BLAST!!!! Contrary to the name, "trash the dress", the dresses actually didn't get too dirty, and we will dryclean them back to almost new. :) So don't worry everyone! lol
This shoot was so much fun because it gave us another opportinuty to get some beautiful pictures in our wedding dresses, and spend some more time on the photos. This post is picture-heavy, so be ready! :)

I'll start of with my absolute FAVORITE pic from the entire day - Nicolle - I love everything about this pic! her hair! the dress flying! the blue blue sky! the beach!

ooooooo......risque! ;) Love this shot of Nicolle!

awesome jump you guys!
loooove this one too! the moody colors, the sillouette kiss..... yup yup, good stuff! heheShad took over the camera halfway through the shoot. I gave him a mini-lesson on how to shoot in manual mode on our way to the beach, and he picked it right up - shot in manual the whole time! He's a natural at knowing what angles work - I was impressed!

Fun shot

I accented with pink, and pearls :)

Gettin' it dirty.....! Eeeeek!

I love this idea of Nicolles, with the reflection!

All in the water! :) I was going to get in the ocean, but it was freezing, so settled on the warmer puddles lol

We had way too much fun! I'd totally do it again! (after i get my dress drycleaned) ;)

SO, if anyone wants to "trash the dress", look me up, and we'll have fun! Prom or bridesmaid dresses are fun to "trash" too! :)

I may have more pics later :)

~maternity~

My beautiful sister in law is 8 months pregnant with.....a girl....or boy.....we don't know, lol. Debbie was in town, so we took the opportunity to take some maternity photos. Here are a few of my favorites


I love this one! We found a field of wildflowers - in the city, no less! There wasn't any "no tresspassing" signs, so we took our liberty, and helped ourselves to using the field. A cop did stop on the other side of the road and watched us for a few minutes, but must have decided we were harmless lol

A funky angle, but i love this shot!

The view from Debbies world lol I love this one, too! :)

Thanks for being such a good sport Debbie and letting me try new things on you :)

I'll have the pics to you soon!
