an overdue post- Arizona photo shoot

So way back in August, we spent some time with Kerri and Doug on our way home to Texas. It was quick, but the best 9 hours of the whole trip!

We managed to pull the cousins away from each other long enough to squeeze in a little photo shoot. Ker has a fantastic photography gig and I couldn't be happier with the outcome. Now that I've got a little decorating done at our house, I'm ready to order about a bazillion prints. Here's just a little sampling of what she came up with:

Check out the rest of her talent and services here. You're gonna want some of your own.

Thanks, Burch's for "the goods" and for such a fun visit!

What cute kids you have! They are getting so big!

Country of Texas. I love it. So true.

Finding the appropriate babysitter rate is hard, huh! And it's different where ever you live.

Wow, what a moving slideshow! As if there weren't already enough reasons to come to Texas! Did she put that all together, or did you? Your family just cannot get any more good-looking. Can't wait to see you soon!

How adorable. Your kids are so cute and I can't believe how much Lydia looks like you. And of course you are looking gorgeous as always!

Wow, she IS amazing! She is so talented! It helps when there's such a cute family to work with! I'm glad you guys 'weathered the storm' there in Texas. I know the feeling. A couple of hurricanes came close to us in Cayman while we were there. I'm glad you're safe!

Hey Mary! I can't believe you guys are already in Texas. Glad to hear you're doing well. Gia still talks about Ethan - it was fun to get to know you and Ethan during that short time. Good luck in Texas! It seems like you've had a fun adventure!

Take care,

Mel
