We certainly love to celebrate the 4th of July at my house – it ranks up there with Christmas as far as my kids are concerned!

This picture take me back to MY childhood, and reminds me of my childhood love of knee high socks and roller skates.  Times WERE simpler back then … am I dating myself?!

Was in the house tending to my homemade baked beans, and caught this moment between my husband and son ;

Head on over to I Heart Faces to see more patriotic goodness!

Tomorrow morning I have a shoot scheduled with a friend of mine that is pursuing modeling for the second time – post children.  I am really looking forward to this experience, as well as capturing images of my gorgeous friend!

Here are a few inspirational images that she sent me (LOVE them all):

We’re going for an urban setting – so we’ll see what we get when we cross some of these inspirations with our location.  Will share!

Lots of fun happenings in my household this summer.

My baby girl got her ears pierced.  Not even one tear!

And of course she chose the ‘diamond’ studs …

Every year, the weekend school is out,  we round up the kids and the dogs and head for the mountains!  It’s becoming our annual tradition.  I love to camp and am glad that my children love it just as much.  There’s something so wonderful about no electricity & no cell phones!  Not to mention the amazing playground that nature creates for us.

Here are a few of my favorite shots from our camping weekend :

I know it’s a week late, but wanted to share with you what I gave my husband for Father’s Day.

Snapped this image while practicing a few poses with them – just goofing around.

Love when I get THE moment!
