Goodbye 2016 (Family Pictures)

I am super happy to start a new fresh year, and to end this one taking some pictures with my favorite people on this earth <3.

My good friend and absolute sweetheart took these for us. She's my hired-forever photographer, I love her so! You can find her work over at www.seemogo.com it's drool worthy :) 

While I didn't get to shoot this session obviously, I did get the unique opportunity to edit them myself. Thank you Morgan for letting me put my own spin on your amazing work! I absolutely loved SO many of the shots we got, even though Georgie girl single handedly tried to ruin them ALL.... I just might make a slide show of all her horrid and hilarious faces because there are THAT many. Regardless, these somehow turned out awesome and my most treasured pictures I own of my family. 

This year was a rough one in many ways with a lot of contemplation and searching for answers, but at the close of it all the light shone through, we made it, and all was right in the world. I can't tell you the beauty that comes from a trial you survived. It's like finding treasure in the most unexpected places. These people are my treasure, better than gold, and they light up my whole life - may I never ever forget that! 

Thank you, Mo, for capturing us so beautifully! xoxo

Preschool Girl

I took these last summer before Georgie girl school started preschool... she's grown so much since then, I just can't believe it! I wish I knew then what I know now about photography, but I'm happy I at least have these cute images to edit now. This red gingham top is especially dear to me - it was a handmedown from my mom. I know my sisters wore it as little girls and I love that she saved their clothes all these years so that we could put our little girls in them. I love this girl so much... I can almost get anything I want out of her with an oversized sucker!! <3
