Foto Story Friday #67 --my girls

Because no matter how you add it up 6 times even the cheapest package is too expensive! And because I really do want to get better at this photography thing, I took my kids out for a little photo shoot. I had a great place in mind and I wanted to go in the early evening..... but time moves faster than 7 people, we arrived a bit later than I wanted.... As it is I give you my daughters:
EmmaLece the youngest, but very strong willed.

Savanna determined and in charge!

Shantel finding her niche.
Each beautiful in their own ways.

Foto Story Friday #66 -- a wedding photo

Sunday evening Troy and I went to the wedding of 2 of his co-workers. It was a nice ceremony, not long and drawn out. The bride was beautiful in her gown and the groom handsome in his tux. I will not be posting their pictures as I don't have their permission. But I will post this fun picture:

When the "I dos" were over and they were announced as Mr and Mrs, one of the groomsmen and fellow co-worker, dashed over with a set of handcuffs and slapped them on. As they walked back down the aisle I snapped this shot of their hands. I think I'll call it "Doin' Time" or maybe "Doin' Life"
