Christmas Photo Sessions

November Photo Challenge-Together

These two were so happy to be able to play "together" after school yesterday.  They ran in the house yelling they were home, ran into Marchal's room grabbed all the Nerf guns threw them in backpacks, hopped on their scooters and off they went to play some kind of superhero.  lol.  They crack me up.  Being a mom of a boy is so much fun! 

November Photo Challenge-Up Close

Isn't he so handsome!  I know I am his mother but you have to agree with me.  He is going to be such a heartbreaker and becuase of his HUGE heart will sadly have his heartbroken too.  I wish I could keep him this age forever. 

November Photo Challenge-Glow

I was walking, yes once again and saw the sun glowing through this beautiful yellow tree.   I was captivated by it and wanted to capture the vision in a bottle so that during these rainy months I could go back and take in that moment.  AH!  Something that will be missed for a few months and like most of the other Oregonians I will be counting the days until Spring comes back around.

November Photo Challenge-Far

Far-I cheated alittle on this one.  I did take this in November but just not for the day I was suppose to.  It was the day I had my annual photo shoot with my little man and I asked him to run far away and then come back running toward me.  Who knew it would ever come in handy?!  lol. 

November Photo Challenge-Windows

Windows?  I wanted to get really creative with this one, thinking windows to someone soul (ie eyes) or looking out the window but when I went on my daily walk I saw this shed with these old, tragic looking windows.  I couldnt reisist.

November Photo Challenge-Pattern

Pattern is the topic today and what better way to show that than with a spider original? 

November Photo Challenge-Alone

I am starting this a few days behind.  But a friend of mine said she loved looking at them and that gave me to the push I needed to get started back.  So bare with me as I play catch up. 

Alone is the first topic.  And I found this baby mushroom on the side of a tree and it totally spoke to me and said I am all alone.  lol.  Isn't it adorable?

behind the scenes.

My children amaze me with their quirkiness.  They are so goofy and always can make me laugh.  Even though when I am trying to discipline them they seem to turn it on it still makes me giggle even if I don't let them see it.  They are full of life and laughing their way through it.  Here is a few "behind the scenes" photos from our recent shoot. 

My how she has grown.

My 12 years has flown by so fast. It is hard to look at her and not see my little 5lb baby girl.  Sniff sniff. 

My little man

It is time for our annual photo shoot with my children.  I snap away at my kids all year long but only make them pose for me once a year other than our family photos and today was Marchal's turn.  I love to be able to go back and see how much he has grown.  He gets more and more adorable/handsome everyday.
