On the road again...

Fun at University of Wisconsin's Union Terrace.

Hugs for Ryan's Aunt Pat and Grandma Knerr- just turned 96!

Do it yourself face painting. Yikes.

Picnic and jet skis on Lake Mendota. Beautiful day.

Cousin Austin entertaining the kids.

Back in Birmingham- ponytails and popsicles at Steel City Pops.

Beach!

Casey is excited to be at the beach!

The kids spent hours searching for (and finding!) tiny shark teeth.

Fun at The Hangout.

Sunset kisses.

Peace out. Fun with silhouettes.

Hunting for crabs on the beach late-night.

Playing chase on the beach with Daddy.

Nothing like some country music on the beach at night!

Late night Fridays in the neighborhood...

Picking Emily up from Camp Smile a Mile.

Crazy cousins!

Summer!

Anna, "star defender". Last soccer game.

On their last day, the 4th graders get to walk the halls of their elementary school one last time to say goodbye to teachers and friends.

Our second annual "jump into summer" party- the kids meet at the pool right off the bus on the last day of school and jump in together!

I was setting up for a headshot and needed a test model.

Relaxing at the lake! Life is good.

Spring!

The back porch boil before the boil!

Preschool graduation. On to kindergarten!

Full weekends!

Wow, and I thought fall was my busy season. Between soccer, softball, Ryan's race, Racing for Children's, and the Crawfish Boil (next weekend), our April has been packed. I'm trying hard to remember to get the camera out for my own family in between spring sessions for clients!

Ryan and the girls just before starting the Iron Warrior Dash in Georgia.

Finished! With one of our best friends from college.

X marks the spot.. Pirate day at school today!

Large Share!

Yet another cold, wet spring Saturday. What better to do than play Mexican Train?

Prepping our boxes for Square Foot Gardening!

Easter Egg Hunt.

Amazing weekend at Honda Grand Prix at Barber Motorsports Park. Here Emily is signing the Brumo's Racing Porsche 250 after it was unveiled in front of Children's Hospital. She was one of the two honorees for the weekend.

Emily in the driver's seat of the race car with the driver!

Waiting to wave the green flag to start the Porsche 250!

Waving the green flag! She had to hold on tight.

Our view from the starter's box- the car in front is our car and has Emily's handprints on the roof and the dashboard.

Waiting to start the race.
