lets start with this silly family. :-)  we went to their place to capture their fun. we took about 4 shots and it started to pour. the kind of rain where you run for the house! we decided to finish up at the studio.

i have to tell you these guys had me laughing so hard at one point i just gave up 'cause my camera was shakin' too much.  :)

for example

 next we have those gorgeous sisters i mentioned earlier....

then last but not least is that cute little baby i mentioned earlier

'baby's got blue eyes like a deep blue sea on a blue blue day'

this baby has the cutest little expressions.....

here's the squishy smile.....(notice the baby teethers)

here's the look of utter surprise  (one of my favorites)

 

this is just her being blue eyed and adorable!!!

sleep newborn.....(not really)

to look at these two images you'd think this cutie is a little sleepy head. i just happened to catch the two times she closed her eyes (this first one i was out at the car and her mommy told me she was falling asleep so i came back in)

isn't she a doll?

 

we just had her 3 month session and she has such a sweet little smile. and she looks great in a headband!! 

'you gotta spend some time, love'

i have to share this fun family. they had me giggling the whole shoot.  this is family and soon to be son-in law (on the end)

i love love this shot!! look how much fun they're havin' cracking each other up!

 

aren't they sweet? 

stop...

brown + blue + blue = cuteness!!!

here's the gorgeous big sis. who was such a good little model.

 

here's the lively little sis who has amazing hair (and eyes)

 

and of course the little brother with those big blues....

 

put them all together and they make a cute little snuggle.....

week ago this morning.....

i can't believe it's fall already. i drive jade to school on mondays and wednesday and this is what we saw last monday. i couldn't get over the blue lines.....

 i caught this prettiness with my iphone so the quality is so so. (i know, it's crazy that i don't have my camera 24/7  :-)      ) 

watch for some little cuties being posted soon!!!!

'climb up, up in the trees, every chance that you get, is a chance you seize'

another gorgeous family.....

with a brand new little brother.... (with lots of hair)!

  

and a loving big brother to watch over him

who is also very cute

and has the key to a successful shoot with a 5 year old

no, not pills. something better ..... smarties!!!   :-)

we saw the real life 'mater....

i know. i was skeptical too but.... 

we learned so much about the movie 'Cars' on our trip on route 66. The movie is a big part of the revitalization of route 66. Every little gift shop along the way has at least one  'Cars' keychain or some other little souvenir.  So when we saw a sign in this  cafe that said this was the inspiration for  Mater in their parking lot I said 'i wonder how many people are going to say that'. Turns out it was true tho. :) We met one of the sisters and she told us the whole story and showed us the scrap book and everything. Check out their website 4 women on the route (make sure you turn your sound down if you're at work tho.....) The experience we had here was typical of our whole trip.... we met the nicest, most interesting people! 

okay, so 'Mater' lives in Galena,  Kansas. There is only 13 miles of route 66 that passes thru Kansas.

ain't he cute!!!! 

so yesterday i asked for feedback from our blog readers on the images i posted. i got one email and one comment. and the comment didn't count cause it was from Tony and he probably took the picture anyway. So my other commenter is going to get a itunes gift card just for playing along and to shame all of you other people who were too scared to share. :-)  Next time I'm going to give a Target gift card!!
