Family: A bunch of people that, in the outside world, may not have ever been friends, but due to the binds of blood and love, are the best friends anyone could ask for.
Lonnie & Bonnie were married 30 years ago (on June 30). They are my parents, my confidants, my heroes, my best friends. They inspire me and make me strong, and without them I would not be the woman I am today. I thank them for their unconditional love and support, and hope that my relationship remains as strong as theirs has over the years. My sister and I couldn’t be luckier to have them as parents! I give my dad credit, for surviving as he did with three females in the house, especially through our teenage years. He’s making up for it, though, with 4 grandsons!
My mom is a huge goofball and my dad is pretty funny himself. Get them together in front of the camera and they couldn’t stop smiling! I thought about editing them like I would a normal session, but my mom is proud of her wrinkles and grays, and their faces tell the stories of their love and our lives. They are perfect just as they are! We also tried to get a nice image of all the grandsons, but with three under 2, no one would sit still for long. This one is so imperfect that it is perfect. It’s a great example of their lives with grandkids!
My little sister’s little ones, Carter & Evan. I am the only person in our family that cannot tell them apart unless they are standing right next to each other!
Josh is their big brother, and he recently became the proud owner of this adorable little beagle puppy!
And who could forget my own little boy, Maddox? He’s growing up so incredibly fast, and I am astounded every day by what he is doing. I love him to pieces! So does his big cousin Josh!
Going back in time a bit, here are a couple from Easter Sunday. Travis was not too thrilled about the bunny ears, until he saw the image later, at which point he agreed that they are super cute!
The kid is happy when he is in just a diaper, and even happier without one! Just don’t interupt him while he’s playing!
I love my family!
