Have you ever been around a family that clearly loves spending time together?

This family is totally that.  Each one of them is so refreshing to be around, and watching them together just warms my heart.

They were here visiting from Chicago, and I'm so very glad we made these made these family pictures happen!!  They are total gems and pure sunshine wherever they go, and I'm so happy to call them my friends...

Once upon a time, there were four of the best brothers who ever were. They were handsome, charming, funny, and oh, just everything nice.

I had the opportunity to meet them on a sunny Saturday afternoon, when after knocking on their front door it opened wide with no one appearing to be there. Peeking inside, I saw a shy little man standing in the corner, smiling back at me.

It didn't take long to become friends with these brothers. One by one they told me their full names but then added "but you can call me..." with their nickname. So when I told them my name but they could call me whatever they liked, I was called "Bobby Jo Grandma" from thence forth. It suits me, I think...

Anyhow, I don't know why I'm still writing because you'll just see the cuteness in these faces and you'll want to have four boys too. Who will probably call you Bobby Jo Grandma.

My oh my, life has been ever so full in the best of ways!

I'm sure many of you would agree, lots going is evidence of LIFE happening with you and those you love...

Sometimes though, it is good to have the world seem to stop turning for a bit so that you can drink the amazingness that a precious new baby brings.

So friends, will you pause with me to admire the sweetness that is bundled up in this little person? :)

I wish you the world, little prince.

Well hello there. You're in for a treat today, as I'm just posting pictures of two of the cutest little chaps around.

These brothers and their parents are truly some of my favorite clients ever (though, I've been called on for saying that about EVERY shoot I do.) But for real, they are one in a million. Or, well, four in a million...

This family's photo session from the fall is one of my favorites.to.date. I really don't know what was better, laughing so much with them as I clicked away or the moment when little Jamie asked if I was coming to dinner with them all afterwards.

My heart has officially melted.
