I’m so happy I did, I watched it a number of times to…Continue Reading “New House!!! – Before and After videos”
Yes, the next step has arrived. We are buying a house! A couple months ago we were given the opportunity to buy a house in Leavenworth, KS.

This winter I developed a new-found sense of wonderment when it comes to the beauty winter has to offer. Here I was, obsessed with snow and pinecones and evergreen and the stark beauty of naked tree branches. Even better, I had the opportunity to celebrate this winter wonderment in a special way, by photographing Krystle…Continue Reading “Krystle + Cecil’s Wintery Church Wedding”

Mister Miles – 11 Months
Categories Family, Milestones, Mister Miles, Monthly Updates, My LifeMy munchin’s mobility has slowed me down even more than the usual.
