Fall Photo Shoot

Our Fall Pictures
Lauren was about done at this point, but James was goin' strong! :)

This is my favorite one of just Lauren. I love that smile and the way she looks like she is glowing.


I love this shot of her looking up.



The grass was cool and Lauren seemed to actually enjoy sitting on it. She was quite fascinated with the pumpkin and mums.

I love this shot of her from above looking down at her pumpkin.


It looks like he is posing, but don't let him fool ya...he's taking his flip-flops off...I surprised him.


ahhh... laughter...

silly face...too cute to pass up posting



I wasn't able to get any good pictures out at the farm/pumpkin patch with the kids, so I decided to do a little photo shoot of my own last night. It was 84 degrees here yesterday, so I waited until it cooled down a bit to put this sweater on James...don't worry...he wasn't sweating to death! I just loved the way they turned out! I have about 50 that I just LOVE, but I chose some of my favorites to show you. You are all very aware of my frustrations with James since he usually refuses to smile and/or look at the camera...anytime! So, I am sure you can all see why I am so pleasantly surprised with the way these turned out. I do need to admit that we bribed him with a tootsie pop. I think it worked well. :) I felt like I got some really candid shots and I love the contrasting colors of fall...brown, maroon, orange, and green...

Great pictures. It was so fun hanging out with you at the football game. I am glad you had a fun time. Jett enjoyed playing with James...he's been telling everyone about his "new friend".
