My, Oh my, it's been too long....

So as you can see I haven't posted a blog in sometime.  My 3 girls just got out of school for the summer and it's been too hard for me to keep them cooped up in the house.  We have such a wonderful breeze atop this "Kentucky mountain". 

Aside from the "black bear" my father-in-law spotted while hunting, that frightens me a little and the newest threat, 2 "mountain lions" that have been spotted in the neighbors field. Our property line is separated with only a tiny fence.  Mama is gonna be "PACKIN' the heat" on her hip-ster jeans and sparkly belt.  Now all I need to work on is my aim!  So yes, this does frighten me.   Mostly because I've been letting the older girls go out to their playhouse without me all summer, then I find this out. I am thanking the good lord above for keeping them from becoming dinner to the creatures we have roaming our mountain.  

I've done so much since the last entry and if I even tried to add them all, you'd be here till lunch.  Ya know what, just go grab a biscuit, slap some jelly on it and meet me back here....it's gonna be a long one today!

I left off with Erick and Lauren. I blogged about them on June 1st.  Here are my favorites from their engagement and wedding.

I think that one was one of their favorites.  Needless to say, I was standing barefoot on the railing of a bridge for this shot.  It made me feel like a gymnast, although my landing was far from a perfect 10! 

   

 Her smile here says it all for me.  They have definitely been bitten by the Love Bug.

I just LOVE the sunflare here.

....and this is actually the exact way he proposed to her.  They went out to dinner with their families and friends.  They brought out the fortune cookies for everyone (that he'd had especially made with "Lauren, will you marry me?" on the inside of them).  He bought this faux-diamond studded fortune cookie to present her the ring and was down on one knee with this ....whopping diamond that he had chosen especially for her.   What a sweet moment for the two of them...and wonderful planning from Erick.

Here is some from their wedding day. 

And here is Lauren waiting to go outside for the wedding. 

 

Erick helped carry her train....

 

This is their favorite wedding photo.  He said it looks like a magazine ad.  I agree....  

and the musican. 

 

....and the cake.

 

the details of her dress

  

the new Mrs. 

 

and THIS is my FAVORITE one of them together.  I love the almost kiss.

 

Next, I had a session with this teeny, 9 day old angel.  Her name is Lilly Brynne and a month earlier, I did her parents maternity session.  The proud parents, Aaron and Tera, are just beaming with delight at their first born.  She is absolutely gorgeous.....and the first grandchild on both sides of the family, so this little girl will be spoiled all the way around.  lol.... 

 

and look at all those wrinkles and baby fuzz.  It just melts my heart.......

and her parents are smitten by her existence...

We wrapped her up with mama and she was soooo comfy she drifted off to sleep.

Yes, she folded up just like a little taco and rested her chin on her toes.  

Lilly is perfectly content with her adoring mama and dada.  How blessed she is to have them.

Heaven smiled down on them the day she was born.  Savour every moment.....with little Lilly Brynne.
