Life Stories: The story of…the thunderstorm!

April 26th, 2012

It was early August last year, the weather man had been predicting storms all day. If you know me, you know that my least favorite thing in all of the world is a thunderstorm. I’m a bit afraid of them. To say I’m a bit afraid of them is really just an understatement. I’m actually [...]

 

It was early August last year, the weather man had been predicting storms all day. If you know me, you know that my least favorite thing in all of the world is a thunderstorm. I’m a bit afraid of them. To say I’m a bit afraid of them is really just an understatement. I’m actually terrified. So here we are, early August, late summer storm and my husband declares “lets go outside!”

Really? OUTSIDE? Don’t you HEAR that sound?!

But being the wonderfully submissive and loving wife that I am, I reluctantly agree. Being afraid of thunderstorms is not something I would like to pass down as a legacy. :)

Here is the story of the thunderstorm. And really, she enjoyed herself.

The umbrella was the big hit!

Head on over to the amazingly awesome Amber Anderson, of Amber Anderson photography! Trust me, you won’t be disappointed you did!

Life Stories: The story of…seeing DOUBLE!

February 24th, 2012

Ever see a photographer who starts out with a 365 day project, or even a 52 week project and never finishes? Yeah, me too. Well, I recently joined a group of a few other busy photographers who decided to commit to a 12 month project! If we fail this, we’ll be taking donations for a [...]

 

Ever see a photographer who starts out with a 365 day project, or even a 52 week project and never finishes? Yeah, me too. Well, I recently joined a group of a few other busy photographers who decided to commit to a 12 month project! If we fail this, we’ll be taking donations for a time management seminar. The best part is that it will be totally candid, lifestyle shots of each of our own families/lives. We don’t even have to dredge up random people or make our kids pose for us. We’re calling the series “The Story of ________” and we’ll each be filling in our own blanks. At the end of this post is a link to another photographer who participated and she’ll be linking to someone else. It’s a whole big circle of stories in pictures. Click through and enjoy!

This is the story of the much anticipated arrival of my twin boys! My due date was October 17th, 2011. They waited until October 11th, 2011 to arrive. At exactly 39 weeks.

Meet James Scott Wilson & Luke Ryan Wilson…and big sister Grace.
