Going Away Party
Goodbyes in Style. We had some people over to wish the Chartney's and Watts' farewell. We miss you guys. Especially, those two little stinkers, Bryce and Lydia.
Happy 31st Aniversary
You guys deserve it!! We all know that!! We love you and miss you! Can you believe that you have been married for this long? Sherry, you made a beautiful Bride! I am looking for some funny and/or sweet aniversary stories...Does anyone have one?
You will be missed
A marriage devoted to the Glory of the Lord is real love. Thanks for being great role models to others, Kevin and Christina. Your love and respect to each other, your patience, the way you choose to resolve conflicts and you honesty has really helped me grow. You will be missed.
How Sadie came into this world!
I was looking back at old posts and realized that I had just saved her 'birth' story as a draft and never published it. So, if you feel like wasting a few minutes and are curious how she came into this world,

The Chartneys
This is my 100th post! Crazy! Am I being a good steward of my time??? HA!
Shannon let me tag along again on a shoot with Christina and Kevin and Bryce (who is now 1 1/2!). Shooting is a lot of fun, I have always been interested in photography, (well looking at nice photos), but I didn't know how relaxing and exciting shooting could actually be. (relaxing because I did not have to do the posing!) Shannon is really good with placing them in a good position and I just stand on the sidelines for fun, shaking keys and making ridiculous faces to get the kiddos to smile and snapping a few to learn. There are a few girls here on campus that are really good and it is a blast looking at their photos and learning from them.(Lindsey, Shannon, and Rachel) Mainly, so I could learn all of your tricks, just kidding! Click HERE to see all the pictures of the Chartneys. A beautiful, easy going family, Shannon leading the poses, a beautiful day.....makes for great practice. I love to try and catch 'emotions'. (are you laughing, Shannon?) Anyways, let me know what you think.
the park
Here are some recent pictures of Sadie who is 10 1/2 months! There where taken at a park in Corte Madera. Who does she look like now?
boys
Christina tried to get Bryce to hand Sadie a flower...he gave his famous little grin and ran the other way. It was too, cute. That's okay Bryce, Noah H. is much more of a gentleman! (We need to get the two them together to play, really)
Tiemann Family
Shannon Let me tag along on her photo session with some friends of ours, Doug and Reann, so that I could pick up some tips! This is Mara, the baby I watch on Thurdays (she watches Sadie while Matt takes a class) My first photographer bloop: my battery was not charged all the way and died on me! Here are some of my favorites.Click HERE to see the rest. Thanks Shannon and thanks for teaching me some tips in Lightroom, too.
