One of my most favorite family session ever tonight. It was fast, it was real, and it was full of love and energy! 
She came into this world today surrounded by love. Can you tell?
But back to the somersault:
No worries. I caught her ;-). Oi.
Here are the page spreads from their family album:
I love them so much, I just had to make one using the pictures from our Hawaii trip. Of course, I also had to include our rockin’ shots taken by my friend, Marina, too! Wanna see all the page layouts?
Clients (past and present): contact me for information on a limited-time special upgrade option so you can get one of these beauties from your own session images (even if you’ve already purchased an album from me).
[P.S. Yes. If you look carefully, I am drinking a beer in the window of our hotel room overlooking Waikiki. Don’t be jealous.]
Now kindly go away, summer ;-). I’m ready for fall now.
It was also really cool to scope out the other homeschooling families in our area. I don’t know what I was expecting, but everyone was just so…so…normal. The kids were happy and smiling and well-adjusted and the parents were patient and encouraging and relaxed. What a joy to see all of those families embracing the homeschooling spirit! I had no idea how many there are out there, but this small sampling was quite a decent sized group.
I also had no idea that there is homeschooling “branding.” A few shirts today cracked me up. Made me feel like we needed to be one of the “cool kids,” too.
I look forward to hopefully doing this again next year. And wow, I just learned about Disney Homeschool Days as well! We’re going to be busy. Do you all know of any other events like this we should check out?
(Note, I realize I’ve been seriously remiss in updating our homeschool blog. Ugh. I should have known I wouldn’t be able to keep up with yet another blog. I have been sharing some things via the Creative Mama blog, but perhaps I can try to do some homeschool updates on here every now and then. Perhaps. No promises 😉
[As with all Xpressions sessions, these have received minimal adjustments, but no full retouching]
