Oldham Sisters

I have known these two for a long time and have loved capturing pictures of them over the years with their family. Aren't they beautiful. They are sweet girls and they are really good friends. I love the bond that sisters have. Maybe I need to do pics of them together sometime to capture that bond. Now that would be sweet!

love

I have so many pics of these two to share... More pics coming soon.

My Beautiful Sister

This is my Sister Amy and her sweet family. She was my protector when we were growing up. My Brothers didn't have a chance against her. Our room was her bone of contention with me, she would give up and just clean our room to avoid a disagreement. She cannot believe that I know how to clean and keep things tidy now it must have been all of those years of watching and learning :).

I was honored to take their family pictures when they visited and I have to admit that she can do no wrong in my eyes. She is a wonderful Mom, Wife, Friend and Sister. Her kiddos are so dear to me and we are thankful when they visit because our kids are crazy about Uncle Shawn and Aunt Amy they make them feel so special.

One more thing my Sister is crazy talented she sews, cooks and crafts and I will have to spotlight some of her creations soon.

Gallion Family

I am catching up and it feels amazing. I think it is time for me to post all of the pics I did not post over the busy season(family pic time)stay posted more to come.

Happy Saturday

One thing I can count on in Mommyhood is being surprised. Sometimes I feel like I am in the movie Groundhogs day (same thing different day). I am not complaining I actually would choose this over many other scenarios but I have so many days where my kids delight and surprise me and remind me in their own way that what I am doing is of great worth.

My 11 year old left me this note on our counter a few Saturdays ago. I was having a particularly hard day and when I came in from a huge grocery shopping trip and saw this I instantly felt at peace and knew for the millionth time that being a Mom is the best job ever.
