Family Pictures 2010

We went and had our annual family pictures taken a couple weeks ago with an amazing photographer here in town. I am so pleased with them as always!  It was a challenging year for our wardrobe choice due to mommy being four weeks post-baby and Jeremiah being so small. But we fianlly found something and […]
