I assure you, there will be more…

July 6, 2010

My roommate warned me. She said: “Now you know, you are going to turn into a crazy person when your niece is born… you know that, right?… And your parents? Yeah.. they will turn into crazy people too.” Um… she was so right.

I am in Virginia Beach hanging out with my brand new (18 day old) niece, Rebecca Grace. Guess where her middle name came from?? :)

And she is PRECIOUS. We are all seriously so in love with her. So, her photographer aunt was going to waste no time getting some pics (even though she may already have the most well-documented life of an infant thus far, when you consider the number of FB pics already attributed to her…)

She makes some seriously awesome faces. Like this one, that we call “the Elvis.”

I can assure you: there will be more. :) She has turned me into a crazy person. :)

First off: The bling. Yesssss.

Next: The man who put the bling on my finger. He liked it so he put a ring on it (I had that song in my head for DAYS afterward!)

A few days later at Thunder over Louisville. Yep, I was still pretty darn excited about my ring :)

ENGAGED-1-2

I’m so, so in love with this man. I spent some time typing up our story the other day, so, rather than rewriting or pasting it: to read about our love story and engagement, you can read it here on our wedding website!

The Avenue Family in the Yard

June 16, 2010

There is a house on South 3rd Street that has become a special place for our church. Our pastor and family are moving in to this home today, asamatteroffact, and the offices for the church are on the top floor. One day we had a meeting in the house. We all sat on the floor in a couple of the bare rooms and talked. And then, this happened.

The kids were running around, we were mingling and standing on the porch in the sunshine… and it just felt like home. It just felt like family.

I took a few headshots of people to use for a project for the church. Look at these good-looking Avenue-ites!

And then it was play time.

Play time for the big kids too… apparently

Little boys. Give them a big stick, and they are happy for hours.

So these next photos are the last pictures taken before I became Lee’s fiance the next night! I had no idea what was about to happen the next day– but apparently a lot of the people at this meeting did! I’m going to post some of the pics from the night we got engaged soon!
