Gardner Family

I always love meeting up with families I've been photographing for the last few years, especially to see how much the little ones grow and change.  I met up with Super Nick and his family last Saturday on a gorgeous evening in City Park.  He is such a smart little guy--so easy going and getting so grown up now.  Loved this session!  Thanks G family!

Stice Family

It was a beautiful morning last Saturday and spending it with these beautiful people was icing on the cake for me!  They were so much fun!  They were all troopers and endured the pesky mosquitoes we had to deal with too--something we weren't expecting to be dealing with in November.  :)  Thanks again for a great session, S family! 

Kirwan Family

Well, here we have the last of the Idaho pictures.  I finished it off with great company, I must say.  I can't even begin to say how much I love these guys and how happy I was to meet their newest addition on my trip home.  Little Hawkins fits perfectly in their family and is so incredibly sweet.  I just loved him!  Love you guys!

Carter

This fine young man here is my baby brother.  Yes, the baby of the family who is 18 years old now!  I can hardly believe it.  He is now a senior in High School, set to graduate in the Spring!  It has been fun to watch him grow up and see what a great guy he has become.  My boys sure love Uncle Carter and we are all so proud of him!

Jackson, Taylor, & Samantha

 Some more pictures of my good looking family members from Idaho.  These are my nephews and niece and we got lots of play time with them when we were there.  My boys said that one of their highlights of the trip was that they got to play with Jackson and Taylor.  I think they are pretty big fans of their cousins!  I love this bunch and am so glad I got to see them all in Idaho!

Since my trip fell right during Halloween, we had to grab some shots of the Halloween costumes.  Samantha fell in love with the US gymnastics team and wanted nothing more than to be a "twirly girl" for Halloween.  I LOVED it!  Such a cute idea and she was the cutest twirly girl I've ever seen!

Mike & Angie

 Another group of shots from Idaho.  This is my darling little sister and her hubby.  They are expecting their first little baby--a boy--in just 5 weeks.   We took a few minutes to try to capture that cute little baby bump of hers...which was hard to do since it is SO little!  :)  I can't possibly tell you how excited I am for these two.  They are going to be great parents and I have confidence that they are going to teach him young who his favorite aunt is!  Love you guys!!

Robinson Family

Ok, where do I even begin with this?  This family is another gorgeous family I got to meet up with in Idaho, but our friendship started a long, long ways from Idaho.  I met Brigit when my husband and I moved to Iowa in 2003 for him to begin law school.  This was the first time we moved far away from family and we were lucky enough to make some of the dearest friends while we were there.  It sure helped ease us in to life away from our families!  Some of our greatest memories from our time in Iowa involve these people right here.  And wouldn't you know, 9 years later, they are living in my Idaho home town!  I can not tell you how fun it was to see them all again.  It has been so much fun to catch up.  I absolutely LOVED this session.  Thanks, Robinsons...your family is as beautiful as ever!
