shawn and gretchen: 25th anniversary

Shawn and Getchen have been married for 25 years. They have 5 sons and a beautiful daughter-in-law. Their boys decided to throw them a surprise anniversary party. They in listed some help from a few great women at their church who really did a wonderful job with the party. Both Shawn and Gretchen were shocked! Their marriage and faithfulness to one another and to the Lord is a great encouragement to many and I was so thankful to be a part of this celebration.

Happy 25th!!!

This sweet boy is almost one!

meacham: maternity/family

This family is very near and dear to my heart! I am so excited for them as, Lord willing, their family will be growing leaps and bounds this fall! Jon and Bethany are very excited to welcome their little boy in a month or so! This couple has been a very good example of patiently waiting on the Lord to grow their family. They have been through many trials but by the Lord's grace have remained faithful and it's so encouraging!

jayne family

The Jayne family just grew by two in the last two months! It was really special to get to take these photos. They were so sweet. The kids loved each other so much, even after just 6 weeks of being together. Some of their grandparents were visiting from Florida so we were able to get some with them too.

I praise the Lord for this beautiful reminder of my own adoption in Christ. (Ephesians 2:13 But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far off have been brought near by the blood of Christ.)

stone sisters

Meet L (4) and T (9 mo). These sisters are both so beautiful! It was fun trying to get this session in before getting rained on. The clouds were rolling in but the girls did great and cooperated so well.
