Yucaipa Family Reunion!

well, it’s finally cooling down a bit where we live, but now we are off to boiling TX in a few days!  it’s totally worth it though, because we’re going to spend some time with Stephen’s awesome family & we don’t get to see them too often 🙁

speaking of family, today i’m excited to share some photos from a recent family reunion session. Stephen and i stayed pretty busy with photo shoots over the 4th of July holiday weekend…and here is a sneak peek from the first one!

it was such a pleasure to meet this beautiful family 🙂  Marie is one of 9 children, and has quite a large family herself!  they all got together for the week in Yucaipa, where she grew up, for a little family reunion.  her and her husband have 5 kids of their own, and they each have their own wonderful families.

there was so much joy and laughter during the couple of hours we were with them…you could tell they were all excited to be together again 🙂

here are the girls in the beautiful dresses Grandma Marie made for them…

and, of course, my favorite part…more candid shots!

thank you so much you guys for spending some of your precious time together with us!  it was so nice to meet all of you and hope to see you again sometime 🙂
