Handsome Jackson on the beach

It can be hard to take the nice camera to the beach because of the heat, sand, water, & safety issues. Thank goodness for smartphones that can capture moments like today.

Boys pool fun

 Michael & the boys had fun in the sun and pool yesterday.  Noah is about 85 pounds; launching this kid is not easy! Daddy was a good sport!

Annemarie's 1st Fourth of July 2015

That squinched up nose---the same face I used to make at my dad when I was a baby! It's uncanny!

Annemarie Grace- 4th of July 2015
9 months old!

My photographer was sick almost this whole month, so I didn't have an opportunity to take nice 4th of July pictures for Annemarie. I did my best shot at home, and these are a few of my All-American girl! She can sport the red, white, & blue!!

4th of July Photo Booth with Grampa!

Grampa & Oma came to our house for 4th of July 2015, & Grampa didn't mind getting silly in our red, white, & blue photo booth! We kept joking because Noah's glasses with the white beard looked just like Grampa!!! What a great sport! HOW WE LOVE GRAMPA!!! He's the best!

Annemarie's 8 month pictures

Here are the pictures Rose Bailey Photography took for Annemarie's 8 month session.  It was a HOT day when we took these pictures, and at a time that is normally the near-witching hour.  But, true to form, my sunshine girl did amazing and we got what we needed quickly.  She's so delicious...from her head to her toes. I simply adore this girl. She's my sweet sunshine baby. Oh, how I adore her!

Precious baby toes!

And this is why my girl is in a commercial. She's a stunner.

Just look at this face. Joy personified. Love!!!

She looks a lot like I did when I was a baby in this one

Father's Day 2015

Father's Day 2015~

We got together with Paw Paw, Granny Meg, and Sarah to celebrate Daddy & Paw Paw this Father's Day. We ventured out to eat for lunch...with success! The boys were excited about the Bevo cake covered in orange and white icing.  It was just a great way to celebrate these amazing men in our lives. We are so blessed.
Happy Father's Day Daddy & Paw Paw.
