Kathy and her lovely daughter Caitlyn wanted something to remember each other by before Caitlyn went off to college, so I was hired to take the last photos before she left the nest! They traveled over an hour just for the shoot!! They were so much fun I had a great time just spending the time with them!
E went to his first baseball game last night and totally LOVED it! Went to see the Gary Railcats, which was really an awesome place to go for a chill night with family and friends, hotdogs and beer, and fireworks to end the night! We all definately had a great time!
He's screaming "SWING BATTA BATTA" in this photo! haha!
Steffeni's birthday was Sunday, so we celebrated with dinner and Fro-Yo! Yum!
My dad ended up buying E the most awesome birthday present, which we got today! He got a battery powered Yamaha Raptor 4-wheeler!! Elliott was SO excited when I was putting it together, and was very surprised to see that it moved by itself! haha! Pretty much, he's a little scared of it right now, but in time I know that he will LOVE it as much as I loved the Barbie Jeep I had when I was a kid!
Cute factor is that it's a mini version of the Yamaha my dad owns! And the fact that E calls it his P-Paw Truck! Aww!
Thanks Dad/P-Paw!
And then she turns around and denies the entire thing. Go fucking figure, LOL.

I seen Dave's family.
When you get tired of Dave cheating,
they will not be your family any more.lol
Your family is in Oklahoma, Kansas, California, Idaho....
Shame on you Lauren , shutting my parents out. :(
They may be different but THEY ARE YOUR FAMILY !
My response.
First off, because you have shitty taste in men doesn't mean that I do. Get over the fact that I have a man that loves me and only me, unlike you and every relationship you have ever been in.
Second, Stop talking shit about my family. Funny how Dave's mom is more of a mother than you have EVER been. I love her so much and I will continue to be at her side.
Third, Grandma and Grandpa were there, infact they helped plan and decorate his entire party.
You need to stop with the fucking jealousy comments and talking shit about me and my family.
There is a reason Elliott has yet to even know you exist. Don't bother holding your breath about seeing him, because it will NEVER happen. Get over it and move on.
You are nothing but a horrible distant memory from here on out. I'm sick of your shit. Act your age, you were born in 1965 NOT 1975**. Stop with the lies....
And as far as I know, my only sane parent is my dad.
Can you tell I was pissed? Seriously, what did I do in my past life that I deserve a fucking nutcase for a mom? I know she's schizophrenic and all but DAMN. I hope someone takes her out of her misery... is that bad? LOL
**she has is in her facebook that she's born in 75 and then goes around adding random young guys
Saturday we held E's birthday party at our home and had almost all of our family and friends over! We had such a blast and I love the fact that people are still talking about our party! Here are a few photos from the day, I didn't take many because I was busy hosting, but thankfully my inlaws took more for us. I'll let you all know when I get those back and uploaded.
See the whole set here!
Every year we have a birthday swap for the June/July 2007 birth community.
Ofcourse, Elliott INSISTED on wearing the hat to school today (and by how cute he was, I couldn't say no!) and told everyone he was a "Monster!! GRRR!!!"
The last photo of my baby as a one year old.
I'm getting teary eyed just thinking about tomorrow...
Sunday we went to the Munster Fair and E had an awesome time riding the kiddie rides (the whole 3 rides he was allowed on, haha).
Last weekend when we got our pool!
My sweet friend Megan asked me to take photos of her beautiful family, and after the shoot being pushed back we finally all met up Sunday for our overdue session! Junior was so funny and had me laughing, and Adrian was just so sweet!! And Megan, gorgeous as always!
See the rest here!
A good work friend of mine approached me a few months ago desperate for a last minute photographer for his wedding. I took the gig and ran to my car like a school girl who got asked on her very first date, I was estatic!
The big day was this weekend and I am so honored to be a part of their big day! I can't wait to hear what they think about their photos!
I decided 28 photos were enough for a good sneak peek, especially since I took over 1,000 photos by the end of the night! Haha!
So see the rest of the teasers, click here!
