2011 Santa Portraits at the Lakeland Mall
Santa portraits always make me smile. I love to watch the kids shifting nervously while patiently waiting their turn, then walking up to the big guy, either with a huge grin that won’t stop, or walking very slowly unsure of the situation! I love listening to the assurances that they really have been good even...
Fall Portraits with the boys
Sometimes they play well together, sometimes they don’t make it easy to parent, sometimes you want to hold them forever and keep them little as long as you can, sometimes you dream of them all grown up, but all the time you love them in a way you never dreamed possible!

My dad’s siblings and my Mom’s siblings all lived in the same province, mostly within...
Sisters
The best thing about having a sister was that I always had a friend. ~Cali Rae Turner A sister is a special thing in life. For the younger sister, it is someone to look up to, someone to confess your sins to, someone to show you how to wear makeup and drive the boys crazy….or...
