...just a big playdate...

This family was so fun for one big reason...this session was a big playdate! Complete with baseball, trikes, flower picking, giggling, hanging from trees...and most importantly M&Ms :)

I first met the G family last fall when their youngest son ran a 1/2 mile race I photographed. Can you believe it...this guy...ran 1/2 mile ;) (I think he may have been barely 4 at the time) Very cool!

He is the only runner I remember coming across the finish line...because he had the BIGGEST smile on his face. It was touching and made me smile...still does :)

The next time we met it was for a family session. They decided that their backyard would make the perfect setting and I would have to agree! The kids were comfortable with their familiar surroundings and more importantly these images now have a personal touch that in 20 years will touch your hearts.

I truly had a wonderful time getting to know these very sweet kids...who were waiting in the front yard to greet me when I pulled up!

I love this picture...it just really shows how fun and easy going they are!

Thank you again for inviting over to your home to capture your sweet family just as they are :)
