family...it was definitely about time!

Cole will be 3 this month, and while we have tons of pictures, we had yet to ever get family pictures taken. Mostly out of fear, it stressed me out just to think about actually getting a picture where we all are at least looking in the same direction. Enter Val... Val is a friend of ours who just happens to be a FABULOUS photographer. She has been working on us for a while and we finally decided what the heck. If she is willing to put up with some 3 year old craziness, and trying to get a baby to pay attention, then we had better go for it! and I am SO glad we did! These are just SOME of my favorites.






























Val did an INCREDIBLE job. She was so flexible and dealt so well with crazy kids and stressed parents. I love how she kept shooting when we were not all cooperating, those crazy pictures are some of my fav's. She has the best prices ever (I am not exaggerating) and she gives you the CD of pic's to keep. She is so talented and by far the BEST deal you will find. If you are interested in getting pictures done just ask me about her, or visit her website at http://photographybyval.com/

We definitely captured some memories.

I could not love these pictures more.

I am pretty sure that you were posting this the exact same time I was posting mine! Ha ha.

I forgot to give you a copyright release form. (Sometimes Wal-Mart gives you a hard time because they don't want to be sued for you trying to pull a fast one on a photographer!) If they do give you a hard time, call me. My number is on my website.

Thanks again!

k, you look great in all of these pics. My fave is of you and Ali where you are looking at the camera, I also love the family ones and the ones where you are helping Ali stand and you are not quite in the picture. I love them all. A very good looking family!
And what are you eating? Those must have been the last pictures to be taken.
