His actual debut had to be for something big right??
As many of you know Jessica and I have been blessed in many ways, but our most special is our little one, Lincoln. This weekend he turned one and we had a little party.
We had so much fun!!
We can not thank everyone enough for all the well wishes for our family. We thank God everyday for this great gift of family that helps make everything we do just a bit better.
Here’s a little taste of the cake….




P.S. Lincoln told me he loves comments, at least I am pretty sure that’s what, ‘Jeesh zu dot!’ means.

So we went back to St. Louis, just because we didn’t get enough of the arch the first time around. Deirdre and Jeremy’s multiple toasts at the reception had people buying stock in Kleenex, and then rolling on the floor with laughter. We love it when the toasts become more than a who,what,where,when, and why….but instead divulge secrets from 4th grade, and paint a picture of how their lives have changed since they first met. The raw emotion is what we love to see!











Jewerly was hand made for each bridesmaid. A special touch.








There is something about an engagement session that really makes us look forward to a wedding. We get to know the couple, we get to hear fun stories about their relationship (some we could blackmail them with), and we get to see how they interact with a camera shoved inches from their face.
In this case, we came to the understanding that on October 19th, if the limo drives by a stray puppy, the wedding may be slightly delayed. Laura has a huge heart and just can not help but try and nurse an animal back to health.
Can’t wait for their wedding.











I still am finding blue frosting on my camera. The things a cute one-year-old gets away with !!
