Tween Twins

I brought my twins out for a photo shoot yesterday. They are growing so fast and turning into teens right before my eyes. One day they are toddlers and the next, they are in middle school with braces and legs longer than mine. Where does the time go? I have to say though, I love the growing stages. Watching them turn into the people they have become. Each year brings new memories.

And, that's what the photos are for. I'm so glad that I have taken literally hundreds of pictures of them over the years. Maybe that's why I love photography, because I love my kids. They're crazy and cool and like all moms, I don't want to miss a minute.

So here they are..... my awesome kids.

Pretty Payton.

 Really love these black and whites of Jack. He's a musician. Can you tell by the hair?

 My not-so-serious subject, Payton. Glad she's having fun today. She's a nut!

 This one was a little over-exposed, but I like it anyway.

 He's so much taller than her now. That's okay, everyone needs a big brother; even the one the same age.

Thanks for letting me brag a bit. I'd love to take pictures of your pride and joy, too.

Wild Life

My husband was walking in the woods (his favorite place to be) and found a this turtle. He or she, is an Eastern Box Turtle. Gorgeous, isn't it?  I'm pretty on board with any animal around our house accept for a bird; they freak me out.

So the kids decided that the turtle needed a place to swim and they put him on top of our pool cover. It has rained quite a bit lately and it is just deep enough and full of leaves to make Hawkeye comfortable and happy. That's his name by the way, Hawkeye.

So here is the turtle enjoying his day in the sun.
