After Stephanie and her sister surprised their mom with a session back in the spring, she and her husband decided to do the same for his mom!  And as I’m wrapping up these family sessions to concentrate on weddings, engagements and birth photography, I’m SO thankful for the time I’ve had with each of these families and that they’ve trusted me to capture memories for them.  Sharon was so excited about getting her family together and like me, she’s a planner!  So once we were finally able to meet for their session, it was like hugging a friend!  It took us a while to land on a date when everyone was available and able to be in town, but it worked out perfectly.  The weather was gorgeous and little Maddie is now walking!!  She’s just precious… like her whole family.

Thank you guys so much for a fun afternoon.  Enjoy a few of my favorites!

The grandkids!  Obviously Maddie is treated like quite the princess.  Each time these four were together, the boys each wanted her in their lap.  SO sweet!

As any 11 year old boy, David was not that excited about photos… but I’m glad we got this sweet one with his mom!

Because this is what happened when I asked him to give her a kiss on the cheek!
This is the “you want me to do what?!?!” face.

Sharon and Larry will be celebrating their 50th wedding anniversary next month – and I thought Ben and I were doing pretty good with 2 years!

Trust me, it’s really difficult not to love these guys.

And you better believe she loved every minute!

Boys… But I love it!

Oh my goodness, sweet girl, you are just beautiful.

Happy Friday, everyone!
