Fun in Pictures

Back in March/April, we had some great family pictures taken by the very talented Kim Ence at 1000 Words Photography!  She did such a great job that we wanted to share them with all our friends and family.

Lili was the first to get her pictures done.  We did them for her first birthday.  The girls came with me to the shoot and helped keep her happy.  She is so stinking cute!


She loved the teddy bears that were there for the shoot.


She was so funny in her various outfits and settings.


A girl and her monkey all dressed up!


I promise, I didn't make the mess!


"Hehe!  I actually have my big sister's phone!  I wonder who I can text..."


She's queen of the world!


Look, Lili made a new friend!


"Can we keep it?  I promise it isn't too much trouble."


"Oh my gosh!!!  I found an egg!!"


I just LOVE this one!  It is so cute and helps us remember her chunky little leggies... even though by this point they were only 2/3 their previous size...


Our next photographic adventure was at Flatrock Park here in Columbus, GA.  I made the girls and myself pirate costumes to go with their dad's.  We had a great afternoon playing around there.





The girls wanted to use the props they had brought along so badly.  Here they had the chance to use the sextant, map and telescope to have some fun.






Look at these gorgeous girls!

Lili was so very happy when we let her put her feet in the water.  She really had fun walking around in it. 


When the shoot was all over, the girls were just walking around and Kim took a picture of them.  I love their reflection in this shot.


Flatrock Park is such a fun place to explore.  The girls love to climb up the large rocks and walk along the water.  Sometimes, the will even "accidentally" fall in.  They also love all the different plants and even sometimes critters they run into there.







We had a lot of rain earlier this year, and the girls wanted to see what the park looked liked.  So we loaded up in the van and took the camera to see how much water there was.  Usually, the water is a nice little stream.  You could hear the water rushing along as you got out of the van.

The picture of the girls' reflection was taken at this part of the stream.









   

The individual pictures of the girls and the family picture with our feet in the water were taken under this over pass.

  2. Aw, thanks!! We had a great time picking out fabrics and making the costumes. And it was all Chris's idea! The girls really enjoyed the whole process. :)
