These are the moments of our childhood that create a lifetime of memories❣

Dapper groomsmen with their "old fashioned" toast.

This picture fell out of a book today, Ella, only 6 weeks old-now 10 years old.  When I was a mother of one, now a mother of five. The pure, innocence of true love's gaze.  With birth a baby is born,  but so is a mother! 

I love being able to capture the true essence of children, especially at home. They are so much more comfortable and willing to just be themselves!! I love that!

A birthday party for Mouse 

Rachel and Karl are huge Cubs fans, so it was great to get some fun shots around Wrigley Field!

How many days until summer?!  I can not wait to road trip again with my favorite guys to my favorite beach!  

This here is Delanie, havin fun. Yet she knows she created a Kodak memorable moment. 

Micaiah travels the world giving back and has a heart for international conflict resolution. I’m so glad I was able to capture this photo of her hanging out and laughing. 

Josh Carter and Sarah Barthel of Phantogram performing a live DJ set. 

She was somewhat nervous about the robo monster behind us but she managed to muster up a scared smile :)

Celebrating the start of spring with at a Holi Hindu festival in India.

Alexi & Tegan hug everyday when she gets home from school. 

“Knowing a person is like music, what attracts us to them is their melody, and as we get to know who they are, we learn their lyrics.” - Unknown. Still filled with love today, especially for my music men. I love that my husband is passionate about his own love of music and shares it with our young boys. 

His smile makes my day even if he mess up the whole house

I took this photo on his 31st birthday. I love it because it captures the light and kindness in his eyes. He likes it because it captures how big his biceps are. Men, amirite? ?

During our first big snow of the winter. 

Miranda giving kisses to her best friend Bandit. Since birth there's been an unbreakable bond..

Dr. Jovie and Dr. Pippa very excited about their three-year-old wellness visit at the doctors' office. Everyone loved their outfits just as much as they did.

Look, kids don’t always love when you take them out in freezing temperatures and make them take their coats off *and* make them smile. But...all it takes is one moment. This was that moment.

The prettiest under-sofa conspiratorial gathering. Oh to be a fly on the wall of this meeting. 

Wer sich auf den kurzen, aber steilen, Fußweg zum Schloss Heidelberg macht, wird mit einem tollen Blick über die Stadt belohnt. 

If you take the short but steep path to Heidelberg Castle, you will be rewarded with a great view of the city.

Early in the morning when my daughter woke up she went to the living room and saw me standing by the window. The first thing she asked me to do is hug her and the take a selfie of us together. It made my day.

During college there was a beautiful snow fall, so a couple of friends and I went outside to enjoy. My friend captured this snowflake and I love remembering the joy of playing in the snow.
