Before leaving for Kaden’s Christmas program I took the boys out to the cul-de-sac for a quick 5 minute photo shoot. Logan hated the buffalo plaid shirt that I got him from Gap but since it was going under his H&M This Boy Rocks shirt he put it on. I honestly have no idea what […]

I was on top of my game this year when it came to our family holiday card. Maybe it was because Oliver Beckett Photography has pretty much all but come to an end. Maybe it’s because I wasn’t waiting on a “holiday” picture and just used a few of my favorite images from Instagram—like we […]

I had plans to spend one of the past weekends with my hubby at the American Royal but the weather was a little cold and things just weren’t looking to play out like we envisioned so while he BBQ’d all weekend, I loaded the car up and headed home for some family time. We hadn’t […]

If you have followed along on here or through Facebook you know that when it comes to my kids and their milestone birthdays I always have Ms. Katy from Katy Gitto Photography capture their adorable smiles–I honestly never thought I would have my kids in front of anyone else’s camera, besides my own. & then […]

I have seen a number of people post pictures of their families making gingerbread houses over the last few weeks & decided that this year would be the perfect year to start that tradition with our boys as well. And why not make it a party too! A few texts later & we had the […]

Its really amazing what a difference a year can make. This weekend marked our first anniversary in our new home and when I actually sit down and think about, it seems like we have been here a lot longer than that. I can hardly remember everything that went on that day but I do know […]
