Reese is 5!

Happy 5th Birthday Reese! This weekend was so beautiful at the river. The sun was shining. The wind was blowing. The kids were running around on the sand, splashing in the water, laughing with each other. Even the adults were found jumping off the pier with their kids hand in hand. The details of a little girl's Mermaid themed birthday party complete with a Barbie Mermaid cake...it was perfect. I had so much fun meeting friends and family of the White Family. What a great group of people. Hope you enjoy the highlights.

Mini Beach Session



My husband & I went to the river the other day with boys to play in the sun and sand. It was a beautiful day. The Lord just blesses in amazing ways. I ended up shooting an impromtu beach session with this sweet little girl who will be celebrating her birthday next month {and her little sister}. Their mama was so nice and easy to talk to. The girls, as you will see, were just the cutest things. I am so thankful I met them; they just blessed my day.

Little John is ONE!









Happy 1st Birthday Little John. I love you my precious baby boy! En route to North Carolina, we stopped at my friend's house for a few days to break from driving. It was a lovely time out from our road trip. The weather was beautiful. The boys played outside all day. We stayed up late and slept in. It was wonderful. I brought along a couple props just in case John was in the mood for a mini-shoot. I had bought some of those Huggies jean diapers, which are adorable by the way. They went perfectly with the tie and sunglasses, don't you think? John loved being free to roam on the front porch. He also enjoyed swinging on the porch swing, so I thought it was fitting to take his pictures there. So much of him reminds me of Beau, like his facial expressions, his ears, and his build. He does have brown eyes though, and those he got from me thank you very much. Ha. ha. Love you John. I pray that as we begin our life in a new location that you will be blessed through and through with all that God has planned for you.

Braggin' Rights!

This past weekend Julian & I traveled down to central Florida to visit with my family. We hopped in my parents' SUV, waved farewell to Dada, and away we went. Poor Dada misses alot during football season. 'Tis the life of a football coach. Honestly, I was a bit worried about the 6 hour road trip with my sweet 2 year old boy, but thank God for naps and Wow Wow Wubzy on portable DVD. This short trip was planned to celebrate the fall birthdays as a family and we took the opportunity to take some pictures too. You'll notice that I am in some of these shots...that is because I handed over my camera and tripod to my sister's friend to capture the whole bunch. (Kelly, you did a great job, girl.) To say that I am proud of my family is an understatement. If I had a dime for every time I heard the exclamation, "There are SIX of you?", I'd be a RICH gal! As always, we had so much fun. For those of you who have toddlers, you know that they provide a good source of entertainment :) I am so glad Julian & I braved the long drive to visit with my family. It was so worth it! I love you guys and miss you terribly. Wish we were closer. Happy Birthday Jess, Dad, and Kaylen. May the Lord bless you and keep you.
In His Love, Karrie
