the whole family...

grandma and grandpa don't live in texas so it was nice to be able to get the whole family together for some pictures will they were in town. thanks for the location idea melissa, it was a fun one. you have a great family.

it's been forever...

since this family has had a family photo taken{only 1 and a 1/2 kids long ago.} i'm so glad we were able to do one while thomas was home for christmas from college. ramona you have a wonderful family. i just had to get a few up for you to see before christmas.

this time dad came along for the ride...

he was great he made everyone laugh. they should bring him along more often. such a fun family. their youngest alway asks me if we have to be finished when we're done doing pictures together. i love that he enjoys the sessions as much as i do. he just loves the camera and not even his family, try as they might can distract him from it.

as a side note it's been just over a year since i started mismatched stripes photography. and as i've been posting tonight it made me realize that the women in these last two sessions are two of the biggest reasons i'm doing this at all. and my husband too, of course. they were the ones who told me i could do it. they are the ones that keep coming back and praising my work. so i just wanted to say thank you. thank you to all of you who have made this last year wonderful.

her family...

just love this family.

her big brother...

i was just getting the pictures finished up when i came across this one. i just loved it. my youngest talks about this cute boy daily and now it's not without mention of baby girl as well.

sweet little girl...

she is such a darling, sweet baby. she looks just like her big brother. congrats! i'm so excited she is here.
