Labor Day Weekend

Anytime we have a three day weekend, we pack up the kids (and most of our house) and take off to Vandalia where Jimmy's parents have nice quiet place on the lake. We enjoy fishing, cruising on the boat, swimming, eating and of course good company. Some home madewine too! The first few pictures are of Connor and his grandma, Fran. Fran, along with Dean, have been best friends with Jimmy's parents ever since Jimmy was little so they are like family to us. It is always so relaxing to go to the lake, a nice little get away with babysitters! Who can complain about that?

Morgan, High School Senior-Tri-Valley High School

I was granted the pleasure of photographing Morgan for her high school senior pictures. She is just gorgeous and the camers LOVES her! I may be a bit biased, after all, she is my cousin! We had a lot of fun going to the different locations, especially the ones downtown. We were stopping traffic and cars were pulling over to watch us!

















These pictures caused a stir on the streets! I love how she rocked her red converse shoes!











My schedule is filling up fast, so please contact me if you are looking for a session this fall.

The Balloon.......

Papa Howard took Finley to Bloomington for an errand and came back with this beloved balloon. She had so much fun running around with it and watching it sail in the air. Sadly, shortly after these photos were taken the balloon went to balloon heaven in the sky. It was so tired from all the love Fin had given it and detached itself from the string and soared away in the sky.




I thought about labeling this an outtake, but it really isn't. This is my daughter, always clowning around. Yes, I will claim her!



Have a safe holiday!
