Let it SNOW!

It's that time of year again... the kids are so excited! Our first snow (that actually stayed on the ground) was yesterday. I LOVE winter... (until around February, then I get sick of it and start daydreaming about summer, camping, swimming and on and on). But from now until then, it's so much fun decorating for Christmas, sledding, sipping hot cocoa and making gingerbread cookies every other day. We still need to get our tree up, we bought our first artificial one last year. We're going to decorate the home school room for Christmas too, the kids can't wait!

Here's baby Eden, she just turned 10 months. She likes it outside despite the cold and loves her sled. Just along as we don't stop moving:)

Building the first snowman of the season.

Jessica and Cory's Wedding Day

This Fall, Melanie and I met Jessica and Cory for the first time. They are such a warm, genuine couple. We had such a blast doing their engagement photos... they brought their dog Angus and we hung out for a few hours on a gorgeous fall day! Even though we hadn't known them before, it felt like we'd been friends forever, they are just so easy to be around. We've been looking so forward to their wedding. They had some fun ideas and we were excited to be a part of their day!

Cory and the boys wanted a gangster type look to their pictures...




Angus looking sharp for the big day...





Jessica just shortly before she walked down the aisle... she looked absolutely stunning.


All the girls looking GORGEOUS!



Angus was the ring bearer.... he did an amazing job I might add:) But was anyone actually surprised that he did it so well? We all knew he would... he's such a great dog!








Congratulations Jessica and Cory, what a fabulous day!

Dawn and Bob = Married!

Here's a few more of my favourites from Dawn and Bob's wedding in October. I LOVE fall weddings... especially when the weather cooperates! It was such a blast doing their photos. Bob was so laid back and easy going. Dawn was up for anything... every pose idea we had made her so excited:) What a great couple!
I love this first image:










Congratulations Dawn and Bob!!

McDonald Family and friends!! :)

On Sunday, Ronny and I met up with our good friends, the McDonald's. Every Fall, the whole family meets up and visits an Apple orchard. This year, they chose to visit Frootogo in Hamilton.

Here's the whole McDonald family. Gary and Diane had two sons: Scott and Ken. Here they are with their wives and kids...




Tristan and his mom, Andrea are good friends with the McDonald's... I love Tristan's eyelashes. What a handsome little guy! The camera loved him:)


Ronny and I are very close friends with Ken and Julie, here they are with their kids:


And here's Scott, Tennille and their beautiful girls!






This is my favourite capture of the day! I have to give credit to Ronny for it. It really shows the warmth of this family... they are a very snuggly group:)

Thanks McDonald's for inviting us along on your apple/pear- picking adventure!
Looking forward to hanging out with ya again soon.

Jeremy, Carrie-Ann and Family

Today I met up with Jeremy, Carrie-Ann and their four gorgeous kids at Lindley's Farm in Ancaster. I followed their family on a hay wagon ride, thru a corn maze and into a pumpkin patch. Here's a few pics of our morning...

Dawn and Bob's wedding!!

Dawn and Bob were married today- what a beautiful fall day! What a dream couple for us to photograph... they were so adventurous and enthusiastic:) I love it when a bride doesn't bat an eyelash when you suggest that she lays on the ground! We loved the yellow leaves. Here are just a couple of pictures from the day... there will be more to come!

Happy Thanksgiving!!

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!
Just thought I'd do a quick blog entry to say what I'm thankful for!
I'm so thankful for the loving family that I grew up in, and for my husband and his amazing family. I'm am SOOOOO thankful for 3 beautiful children; I prayed and believed for many years for them, what answered prayer!

And most of all, I'm thankful for a Saviour who gave His life, His all, His everything so that I can spend eternity with Him.
