this past weekend, we had the awesome opportunity to have our family’s photos taken by untamed heart photography at the city museum in st louis. and oh…my heart is so darn happy, i can barely stand it. i cannot even begin to express how much i appreciate this gift michelle has given us.
friday afternoon, we drove to st louis, to visit michelle and her family. ryder lost his tooth on the drive and we hoped that the tooth fairy would be able to find us. she did. :-) our families had such a great time — sharing, laughing, playing together!! saturday afternoon was the photo session. and on sunday, we visited grant’s farm and then ventured home.
i truly and deeply treasure each and every image michelle has shared with me. needless to say, she’s wicked talented. here’s a few that she has emailed over the past couple days…
thank you michelle, for the magical photos. for opening your home and your hearts to our family. for the special memories that will forever be a part of us. thank you…for everything!!!

and in case you were wondering, this is what the four-hour drive home had in store…
p.s. if you’re a photographer, please don’t forget to take the time to have your own (family’s) photos taken!
