This is my favorite photo of my mom, so glad I got it. She doesn't love it, but it is truly candid so it is special to me. Love you mom!!

Passionate Joy

I follow a sweet blog called Kellys Korner and each week she hosts a "Show Us Your Life Friday" and this week the topic is baby names, which I LOVE!! So I'm participating.

My first girl will be Reese Joy. Reese means things like fiery, passionate, enthusiastic" and I think it would be so sweet to have my little girl's name mean passionate joy. Also, I pray her life is filled with joy and I know she will be a source of joy to me when the time comes!!

I also like Chloe Lane (Lane is my dad and brother's middle name) and Eden Claire or Eden Lane.

Before and After

I know this picture (after version) has appeared on the blog a few times before, but it is one of my favorite pictures I have taken!! I am joining up with a before and after blog carnival so now here it is straight out of the camera.

Daddy's Girl

This little lady did not love me with my big black camera in her face, but she did love her daddy!!

Springtime sweetie

I did a photo shoot a couple weeks ago for my youth leader and his family. This is their 6 year old daughter Emma. I rocked her all the time as a baby in the church nursery, so its hard to believe she is 6.
