So here is a real quick run down of Dec. and Jan.
First of all, we did dissect a cows eye for Enoch's school! I'm not posting pictures because my computer crashed (for literally the 4th or 5th time), and all my pictures are not back up on my computer yet. So maybe later. I know you are just SO anxious to see bloody gooey eye balls!
So Enoch turned 5! Can you believe it? They grow TOO fast!! He had a good birthday. He chose a Kong-Fu-Panda theme, and once again... no pictures. Sorry.
Then we left for Florida. Here are some pictures I CAN share with you!!
First.. the much talked about 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 picture! For those of you that don't know... our kids (Jemma and I's) are ages 5, 4, 3, 2, and 1! So we thought what better way to commemorate than with these huge numbers we made and used on the beach :) There are lots more on our business blog, but here's one!
And here is one from Adam and I's TTd (Trash the Dress) session... I think this ones going in our bedroom!
And of course... Essa's puppy. Her birthday is the 27th and we are doing a puppy theme (since shes attached to this thing at the right hip). So I took pictures of her with her puppy on the beach and made this beautiful 20x20 collage. Adam made her a gorgeous frame from old barn wood, and this will be the center piece of the table (since they don't make decorations with puppy's that look quite like this) :)
And here are some of the individuals... and yes- she really did take a nap (and quite a long one) on the beach!
And here is some scenery through the great Smoky Mountains! This was on our way home:)
And back the beach...
And a nice family one...
Or two....
And this one was just too cute! She always picks up the camera and yells "Cheese"! (See the puppy? Did I already mention.. right hip (or I guess in this case left one:) )
And I rarely am actually in the photos, I'm usually behind the lens. But Adam picked up the camera.. and I adore what he captured!
And here is some from Christmas day...
Daddy's turn! The other two were too busy to sit on Daddy's lap long enough to take a picture!
These are some of my favorites! I think they deserve a place custom framed in my bathroom! I already have all 3 of the kid's feet impressions (molds) in their bathroom in a shadow box. What better to accompany it than pictures of them playing on the sand?So this is Enoch...
And Eleesia...
Eleesia again (I couldn't decide which one I liked better)
And although I didn't get a silhouette of Essa (she wasn't too fond of the crashing waves), I did manage to capture this precious one of her dancing on the beach. This is pretty high up on my list of favorites from the beach! (I think it makes the top of Moms list)
Once again.. couldn't decide between color or b/w
And I adore these of the girls!
And here is some from Christmas Eve. We rented a boat and went to Shell Island, a completely deserted island, that was absolutly georgous!
So here is Jonna and Essa...
And Enoch...
And Adam and I...
So thats pretty much it for the beach pictures. However, there is a TON more on our business website (including some breathtaking ones of Jonna), so go check it out! The address is

So now onto Eleesias birthday! Her birthday was the 30th (of Dec). We try to always do something fun on their birthday (especially since their party is usually not the same day). So for Enoch's we went to Chuckie Cheese. Eleesia wanted her nails done, so for hers we headed to the salon. Now she keeps telling everyone that Daddy is going to dye her hair pink and purple. Wonder were she got that idea?
Then her party was the following Sunday. It was a My Little Pony Party seeing how she is SO into horses!
She has been telling us for a while that she wanted her ears pierced. Our stipulation was that our girls had to be old enough to understand that it was going to hurt yet still want to get them pierced. So after warning her several (probably close to 500 times) that it was going to hurt, she still requested it done. So on the day of her party, we went to the mall and had it done! She did so good, she barley cried, and she REALLY likes them! She shows them off to everyone! So here is what they look like!
And last of all, has everyone been enjoying the awsome (very few) beatuful 65 degree days? We take it in all we can! Here are a couple pictures of the kids during one of these awsome days! We usually end up outside when the weather is so nice... this day they rode their bikes, but the sky was AMAZING... so we had a little fun!
So thats it for now! I have to get to the studio soon and take some of Essa in her dedication dress (we just had her presented to the Lord at church on Sunday)... so be looking out for those! I'll keep you posted :)
