Hi! I want to show you some of my favorite little munchkins... Beautiful Lola and her handsome little brothers Asher and Noah. I can't believe how fast they are growing, but I love being able to watch them turn into such good people. Their Mom, Nikkie and I have been friends FOREVER. Literally... forever. And Nikkie and her awesome husband Jamie are still part of our EVERY day lives. I love that. So much.

I popped over to their house to take a few pictures for Christmas. But what we captured instead I love SO much more than just pictures for the Christmas card. Nikkie wanted to document this time in their lives. Their every day life. Their kids as they are right now. So we did just that. Each one of them did what they love most (as if there was no camera at all)... play in their rooms, read a book... do what every ordinary day life looks like. I couldn't love this more.

I am constantly striving to do this... I want people to look back at their pictures and remember life as it was. Not just the holiday times... but the real times.
