With big cheeks, gorgeous blue eyes and cute whispy hair Carter is an adorable 3 month old little boy that I could hug and kiss forever!
Don't you just want to hug him and stare into his blue eyes forever?!?! :)
Hagin' out with HOOTS, the family friendly knitted owl! :)

OK---if this mountain goat sweater came in a bigger size I would *sooooo* make Aaron wear it for Christmas pictures! :)
Carter, I love you and you make my world a better place! :)

With 2 adorable girls and another baby on the way, the Fergusons are a spunky and SUPER fun family! Emma and Lauren are 2 beautiful girls with sweet personalities and an adventurous spirit....and they LOOOOVEE their dog Sydney very much! :) We spent our afternoon together exploring the fallen fall leaves, trying to spy puppies and running down the paved path at their favorite park! :)
One of my faves from the day.....
Why is it that everytime a kiddo gets onto Dad's shoulders fistfulls of hair end up being torn out of Dad's head beacuse it gets used as reigns to steer Dad??!?! Makes for some funny moments though---thanks TOM! :)
Who doesn't love to dance on a path in the middle of the woods?
"Heeyyyy wait guys.....I can't see where we are going......."
I had a blast with you Fergusons! The sun was shining, the leaves were vibrant, and the girls were beautiful! :) Happy Fall you guys!!!!!!

One of the cutest families on this side of the St. Croix river is the Timmerman's!! Addison is already turning 20 months old and I can hardly believe how fast she has grown and how much she can talk now! :) We spent the afternoon walking around crunching in the leaves, listening to fire-trucks and making each other giggle!
By the look on Addy's face I think this must have been her first experience in the traditional fall leaf throwing! :) But then after a few demonstrations by Mom she got the idea real fast and starting singing while throwing leaves.....(what I sooooo love about little kids)!
And of course Addison starting singing the "A-B-C song" at the top of her lungs...and we all joined right in....
I have always *loved* my time spent with the Timmerman's and this downtown fall adventure was just the same---I can't wait to hear more of Addy's songs next time I see her! :)

We braved the cold, dreary and windy day to take photos of one of the cutest families of all times---the Sperrazzas! I met the Sperrazzas last fall and fell in love with Adam's little personality. red hair and gigglies....now he is all grown up at three years old and just adores his new little brother Jonah (as you can see with the amount of hugs he gives Jonah through the photos!)
First task: Tickling Adam! :)
Second task: Cuddles on the couch with baby Jonah!

I can NEVER get enough of cute little babies and their teensie hats to brave the MN cold!!!!
Some more hugs from Adam to Jonah!
You Sperrazzas are fun loving, adorable and full of personality and it is always a JOY to watch your family grow and photograph it! :) I hope that Adam continues to hug Jonah as much as he does every day as they grow over the next few months......

Coffee with cream, chocolate and wine and conversations with good friends was my weekend (as I happily say with a smile on my face)...all in the name of knitting of course. Our knitting club, the knitch, went up north on probably what was *the best* weekend of this fall to relax, rejuvenate and have some much-needed girl time. And that is precisely what we did....
The Pond View Lodge was our destination and it was (simply put) filled with perfection the ENTIRE weekend! The owners of the lodge, the Paulsens, do a magnificent job at creating a comfy-cozy, rest-easy environment that we didn't want to leave. They are located up north in Fredrick, WI and *MAN* is it gorgeous....they have restored an old 1940's barn into a getaway with a gigantic (fully stocked) kitchen, beautiful rest-friendly bedrooms, luxurious bathrooms and a perfect relaxing great room! We rested, we relaxed, we knitted and we LOVED it.....

GOOD MORNING!
Out for an afternoon hike for some fresh air...
Our (somewhat) finished projects....
...And rest we did! Pond View Lodge is amazing and we loved every second of our trip. If it weren't for the KNITCH girls my life would be boring. :) I LOVE YOU ALL...

One of my most favorite families is gracing the blog! :) THE OLSONS!!!!!
I have been photographing little Max every few months for over a year now and I feel like I should be eating Thanksgiving dinner with the Olsons because I know them so well! :) And man, do they have a fun and energetic family with their 3 boys! Reed, Jack and Max are near the bestest of friends....although Max does get yelled at every once and awhile for playing with the "big kid" toys, but they still have a genuine brotherly love for one another! What more can a Mom ask for right?!?!?
Mr. Grumpy Pants....

After a quick warm-up inside with the boys, I walked out to find Ang and Max singing ABC's together in the field......I nearly teared up! :)
I *love* me some backlight!! (especially when the sun is THIS golden!)
Apparently the sword fighting with the grass got a little out of hand and polked Max in the eye. Whoops!
I love boys!
I wish that I was half as cool as the Olson family---seriously you guys are fun, energetic and down-right caring and genuine! I love the time I spend with you guys! :)
