Ahh….Colorado

Last week we had a great family vacation in Estes Park, Colorado.  We enjoyed crisp, blue skies, golden aspens in full glory and tons of elk.  This was or 6th trip to the YMCA of the Rockies, and the first time our kids were old enough to really enjoy all the fun activities offered….pony rides, the amazing kid craft center, mini golf, etc.  As if hiking all day weren’t enough to keep us entertained!

Scheduling….

a couple snaps from yesterday of Ava and Cal…

I look at the calendar and just CANNOT believe that it’s almost the end of September. AYKM?

We are running DANGEROUSLY low on available appointments till the end of the year.

***SOOO…..If you are expecting a baby this fall and would just love to have some amazing newborn portraits taken, please please email right now and let’s set aside a time about a week after your due date. Normally, we’d have you call as soon as the baby is born, but it looks like this year could disappoint if we wait too long. Thanks!*****

*****Also, we are pretty backlogged on our phone messages. Matt is doing his best to get back with everyone, we are so slammed. Which, ultimately is a good thing, but you know…. So, thanks for your patience!!********

Side note, stay tuned tomorrow as I have some awesome new holiday gift items to share!

Wow!

On any given evening, around one a.m., I am typically working (obsessing?) on a clients’ album layout perched in my SPOT…..kicked back on the couch, laptop in place.  But every so often, I break (obsess?) to check my favorite photo blogs.  

Matt says I have blog syndrome.  

I know I need to work.  

I know I need sleep even more!  

But*just*let*me*check*one*more*blog!  

I have my fav’s: some are my friends, some I want to be my friends, and some are new to me, found through one of my favorites, blogsofphotogs.com.  

OK, so I almost FELL OVER this morning when Mary Hanson of blogsofphotogs fame emailed to say that WE were the featured blog.  Holy crap!  

A Million Thanks Mary!

My blog roll?  Here are a few to feast your eyes on (I could go on, but I guess that would be obsessive…)

Prayers for Jen

{UPDATE!   Little Ian Edward Mulligan made his grand entrance last night at 9:18 pm!  He is just over 5 pounds of perfect and the family is doing great!  Yea God!}

 

We got word this afternoon that our beloved Jen…..Jill of all Trades…is in the hospital with preterm labor.  Her and Evan’s baby boy is due in 4.5 weeks, so we are all praying for a bit more time.  But we also pray for a safe delivery and health for the baby and Jen if he must be born tonight or tomorrow.

Here are some snaps from our little “going away party” we gave Jen last month.  The kids loved the watermelon ice cream cake…..and Jen loved her ridiculously awesome 30×40 inch canvas gallery wrap!  But do you think she could stay away?  No…through tears when she saw the canvas wrap, she said she’d be back once a week till the baby came.

We love you Jen!  We are praying for you and your sweet family.

 

First Day!

Our first baby’s first day of kindergarten last week….we all love her amazing school!
