Happy Thanksgiving!

I hope everyone has a wonderful day today with friends and family.

We are headed up to Reno, to spend a few days with family and also to celebrate my birthday a little early.

I'm excited to spend the time with them, to be surrounded by the people I love and to share this with Roweyn. I get so excited about sharing the holidays with her and she's still a little young to really understand it but I can tell she's understanding it more this year and to see how excited she gets about it just melts my heart!

Fall 2012 Family Photos

Mid October we had our family photos in Truckee and Donner Lake here in California,  taken by what I think as some of the best photographers in our area, Lemaire Photography. We had our photos done by them last year and I knew as soon as I saw the results, we'd have our photos done by them yearly for as long as we could. If you missed our photos from last year check them out here, here, here and here. :) We got a lot last year, haha I couldn't help it!

Here they are. :)

Amazing right?

I sure think so!

We also have them all in black and white too.

Did I say how much I love Lemaire Photography? haha

They are based out of Sparks, Nv but travel to surrounding areas which is awesome. I wasn't really sure what direction I wanted to go in for our photos, so we chatted and brainstormed and we came up with doing some urban shots in Old Town Truckee and then headed over to Donner Lake for our Forest and Lake photos with the Teepee that they MADE! Danny captured Roweyn & me perfectly. Roweyn was a little shy of the camera at first, but warmed up to Danny quickly and he was able to get the best shots of her.

I can't wait to decorate my house with all these wonderful photos!
