I happen to think this is a beautiful family.

This might be because it is my brothers brood. I am so blessed to have all these beautiful children & families surrounding me. What cutie pies.

This photo shoot originated in honor of little Mae’s first birthday. Originally we were just going to do first birthday photos. But, we decided that it was time for a “real” photo shoot. Mom picked out Mayfield Park, and the rest is history. We did do some extra photos of Mae to capture her first birthday, but we could not resist her adorable and charming big brother.

I had a hard time limiting the photos to show off. If I could show off the whole shoot I might. Anyway, without much further ado, my beautiful niece and nephew (and a couple family shots thrown in there too).

Sometimes there are not words to describe the sweetness in life. 

Sometimes you have to act like a tiger and POUNCE!

Pretty girl.

Indy is a sportsman by nature. 

Daddy actually caught a fish in that net. It was legendary.

Enchanting.

I love the antique look of these next few. I know I posted a lot of this bunch, believe me when I say I wanted to post more!

Sweet sweet family.

OK and this last photo I LOVE. Sometimes you have to save the best for last.

Happy First Birthday Mae!
