I did NOT want to take family photos this year. Don’t get me wrong- I wanted family photos of our family this year… I just didn’t want to have them taken. And it’s not that I didn’t want to be in them… I just didn’t want to look the way that I do in them […]

Hudson’s birth story: On Monday night light but consistent contractions started at around 8 pm They continued till around 1 am when labor picked up a little more.

First of all: Happy birthday to Mila! What a beautiful day it was in flagstaff! And I have to say I totally admire the Curtis family’s dedication to annual family pictures. Not only do they take annual family portraits they drove to flagstaff for the day to switch things up a bit. I love the […]
