Family Photos
So, I know I've been away way too long. Though I don't seem to be overly busy right now, I just can't get myself to do much of anything. I'm not physically busy, but my mind is crazy busy, and I'm just emotionally exhausted for lots of reasons. I don't have a whole lot of sunshine to spread around today, but I DO have pictures I want to share... so, here I am!
My sister & I are heading out to California on Monday to spend the week visiting our Nana. She is ill, and it's... well... one of those things. We're also going to be seeing a lot of that side of the family for the first time in years & years. LOTS of years... some of them we haven't seen since the 80's. While there is a certain necessity & urgency for the visit, I have to say that I'm excited (and maybe a tad nervous) to see everyone! I'll be seeing my brother Miles for the fist time since I was a child. SO excited about that!
Anyway, Heather (my sister) wanted to make a little album for my Nana with pictures of our families. That, of course, is where I come in. With so many little ones running around between the two of us, family pictures become outdated quite quickly. And, hey, it's always fun to have a new family photo, right? (I didn't say it was fun to MAKE a new family photo... now, that's a NIGHTmare, and we ALL know it!)
Our family photo day turned into a really fun extended family photo day. Not only did we do family shots for my family & Heather's family, we also did my cousin Jesse's senior pictures, my cousin Alison's family picture, shots of my parents, shots of my aunt & uncle, shots of Heather & I together, my mom & Rob (my aunt) together... all sorts of things! It was fun! But, I ended up with HUNDREDS upon HUNDREDS of shots, as you can imagine.
I'll just be sharing pictures of Heather's family & one of my family today. I'll share the others of the extended family when they let me know which ones to process. (wink, wink!)

Heather's family
The always beautiful Summer:
Stud muffin Ryan:
The boys were SO super cute & cooperative. The Red-Headed Bandit:
Sweet Ky:
And, here's a quick one of my family. I don't love the posing looking back on it, but, hey... what can you do. :) Heather snapped this, and I think she did well. Who knows what we were laughing at...
Heather & I. I really like this one, aside from the glasses glare that looks like bright turquoise eyeshadow. Ha!
And, one last one of my parents. :) Aren't they cute!?!

I love the last two because you can see that Heather looks just like your mom and you look just like your dad!
I know what you were laughing at - the birdie that was flying above the camera :)
You did a great job as always! Love the ones of Camden and Kyden especially.
Thanks for taking the time to take the photos and to PROCESS them.
Great photos. I love your family pic. I also really love the ones of Kyden. It's fun to see a new post.
Great pics, especially the 1st family!!! hehe - Jimmy
Beautiful family photos Amy!!
Wow, I think Summer looks like you. Love the setting too- where did you shoot those, it's beautiful. I'll be praying for you my friend. So cool you get to see your bro.
BTW- I think colored eyeliner is back in! Your family will think you look just like you did in the 80's. Always a silver lining. :)
Wow - I must be terrible at posing because I loved the posing in your family shot. Oh well, LOL! I love your photos, as always - so beautiful and rich. They are fantastic!
