MEET ... Sarah and Easton

Easton is T-minus 19 days and counting! Here are some of the maternity pictures I took of Sarah! She is stunning and looked beautiful and natural! They are a surprise for her hubby! ... and YES she gave me permission to post these three on the blog (thanks, Sarah!) Auntie Brittney loves you both!

MEET ... Odin (again)

How precious is this little man?! Odin just turned one last month and Auntie Brittney was soooooo happy to take his pictures! I'm so happy we got to see him a few times this visit. We did some inside shots then went and played in the snow --- he loves running in the snow in his boots! His Mommy is as gorgeous as ever! I love (and miss) you both!!!

MEET ... Melissa and Reggie

Melissa is one of my best and longest friends. She was in my wedding, so many of you may remember her from that. And Reggie is a fellow Brave (Go Braves!). They live over in the Seattle area and Blake and I can't wait until they make the swtich back here! They were having so much fun playing in the snow I had to post some of their individual pics!

MEET ... The Wageman Family

This is the Wageman family! My friend Melissa had me take pictures of her husband's side of the family for a Christmas gift to her mother-in-law! Her nephew was such a cutie ... check out his blue blue blue blue eyes! Merry Christmas Wagemans!

MEET ... Myli

How precious is Myli!?! She came over for a quick photo session in my entry way! I love her dimples! We dressed her up like a doll in a tutu, headbands and even stuck her in a hat box! She smiled through it all. I had to put the crying one in because it is proof she is gorgeous even when she is crying!

MEET ... Bryce, Morgan (again) and Connor!

These are some of the kids' Christmas pictures. They turned out soooo cute! Morgan was so funny to watch play with the Christmas lights! Julianne came up with that idea and it worked out perfectly! There are some darker ones that were really cool where you could see more of the glow. Connor is Bryce and Morgan's cousin (Julianne's sisters' son!).

MEET ... Aubrey (again!)

Little Miss Aubrey turned 2 yesterday! Josh and Michelle hosted a ballerina party for her at the Court Club! Michelle even made this darling tutu outfit for her ... she looked like a little princess! Happy birthday, Aubs! We love you!

MEET ... Peyton

Peyton and her mom, Wendy, are so pretty! We went to Bookwalter winery to play in the snow. Peyton had such a great time running up and down the vineyard rows! She is such a cutie and I loved watching her ringlets bounce with every step! She will make an awsome big sister for her brother on the way!

MEET ... Hannah and Grant

Say hello to Grant! He is 4 weeks old today! I took pictures of him, his sister Hannah and their parents tonight! Mom and Dad go to see how far their son can pee too!! He was a trooper and let us mold him in lots of different positions! Hannah was a helper all the way --- check out those locks! Gorgeous kids!

MEET ... My "Bling" Tree

I have to join Wendi and Jamie in the posting of their decorated Christmas trees! My tree's theme is BLING! Matte silver, shiny silver, sparkles ... I love it all. Wendi gave me the great idea tonight to spray paint things silver to match! I guess we all know what Blake will be doing in the garage this weekend!!! ;o) Merry Christmas!

Leavenworth 2008

This year, our friends Colt and Haley joined us in Leavenworth with our family for the tree lighting ceremony! It was so beautiful. Leavenworth got its first snow on the day we arrived!!! It looked like a winter wonderland! Great food, great wine, great get-away!

MEET ... Abbey Mae

Oh little miss Abbey Mae. We were over at the Samples for a 'turkey dry-run' on Sunday and I was able to snap a few of Abbey and Joelie playing around the house. She is such a cutie! She's scared of big-bad-Blake, but Joelie loves him!!!

MEET ... The Riecks (again!)

I took pictures of the Rieck family again, but this time we got the coolest location ever! We were up at 360 Cellars on top of Thompson Hill! If you haven't been, you must go wine tasting up there -- beautiful house, grounds, and breathtaking views! It was cold, but the family cuddled to keep warm!

MEET ... The Cousins

Here are more pics from Tierney's family session! These are all the cousins on her side of the family! I cannot believe how well they all did! And for that many kids we had a lot of pics with everyone's eyes open!!! Way to go!!

Our Christmas Card

Well, after several of your suggestions, I have decided to upload mine and Blake's Christmas card to my blog! I'm so happy that so many of you enjoy my zany take on holiday cards...nothing traditional for this girl! For those of you who haven't seen it already, hope you get a laugh!

MEET ... The Bechos

Tierney and her family are so beautiful ... all 18 of them on her side! I finished editing the ones of her immediate family last night and wanted to get them posted on the blog! She was so wonderful and doubled as my 'helper' as we arranged kids and families! Bet 'cha can't tell we were on the verge of rain the entire time!!!

MEET ... Connor

Connor is Sarah and Sean's newest addition to their family! I took his newborn pictures and he did amazing! He is such a cutie ... look at all that blonde hair!!! Big sister, Jayden, got in some pics too! Connor also proved my "milk drunk" theory ... after some time alone with mom, he was a rag doll and we could put him in any position! He's a doll!

Sarah & Easton's Baseball Baby Shower

Wendi, Michelle and Nicole threw Sarah an out-of-this-park (ha!) baseball-themed baby shower for Easton! We ate nachos, pretzles, hotdogs, and baseball-decorated cookies ... sang the star spangled banner right before the first inning of the shower ... and showered Sarah with our love and support! All the team is ready for you, Easton!
