A little over a year ago, this girl that worked with my sister said she liked my pictures and wondered if I could come take pics at her son's first birthday party. It was to be my first "official" shoot for somebody I didn't know. Unfortunately the day before the party, I got soooooo sick and the day of the party I was even worse - high fever, body aches, chills, "stomach issues"..it was bad. So my sister had to take my camera and do what she could. I was so bummed I couldn't be there, but she did awesome. Here's a collage I put together of some of the pics...
In April, I took pics of Spencer at Hugh Macrae Park...
This summer...I took some of the whole family...
And this fall....a little penguin stopped by for pics...
And now a couple weeks ago...I was invited to Spencer's 2nd birthday party. I am so blessed to do what I do and to get to meet the people I do. I didn't even know Jessica and her beautiful family a year ago and now she is a dear friend - love you Jessica!
So here's some pics from the birthday party. It was held at the same place as last year - it was fun for me to see since I only saw pics! She had Mr Mark, the music man come and sing songs for the kids. It was absolutely adorable. The kids danced, helped by playing their instruments and sang along on some of the songs. He is really awesome with the kids and his prices are really reasonable for birthday parties and other events...check out his web site here.
Since most of the kids there were about 3 and under, their attention spans weren't too long. So Mr Mark played for about 20 minutes or so and then gave the kids a break to go out and play. It was such a beautiful day that he ended up playing the second half of the show outside. The best of both worlds - the music and the playground!
Here's my cutie pie nephew Edwin....
The "big boys" had to play on the toys too!
One of the songs was about eating your vegetables and he had all these cute little props to go with it..super cute!
After the music, it was back inside for cake and ice cream and presents!
Edwin wanted to go back out on the playground so I got this cute pic of him and my sis in the window of one of the "play houses."
Before I left I got a couple of family pics for them...
Thanks guys for a fun party! I look forward to next year!
