Christmas Fireside Family Photos

Merry Christmas!

Lots of teens and tots in our family photo this year! The toughest part of family time these days, is matching the schedule of these kids going every which way. They are all involved in so many activities, I am sososososo proud of them all.

I set up my props in the backyard by our firepit and picnic table. I used vintage sleds, firewood, checkered tablecloth, my son’s guitar, and some evergreenery. We all dressed in denim, red, and black. I also tried to add as much red and black gingham that I could.

The Tots

These girls did very well for being so young. I had this vintage baby sled that I had found at a garage sale a while back. It fit well with my red, wooden, vintage fireside Christmas scene.

I also place a couple artificial Christmas trees because we don’t have real evergreens in this part of our yard. My dad will collect these after Christmas on the curb in his neighborhood.

The Picnic Table

Our picnic table became the center of our photos despite my efforts to include all of the props that I set out and the fireplace.

The Tree

The big kids leaned against the tree by the woodpile for some of our photos.

The Guitar

I love that he plays guitar and enjoys music so much. He enjoys playing for fun, but also gets to play his bass in church on Sunday mornings.

The Storm

She is so beautiful and loved sitting in this little seat at the woodpile. She wore her little red and black checkered jacket and canvas shoes.

Merry Christmas to all!

Cousin Fall Forest Photos

We went to the backyard forest for these pictures. These three girls are cousins; we decided to take the pictures for as a Christmas gift for the grandparents.

We decided on fall colors for their clothing. She wore a brown striped sweater dress and tiny cowboy boots. The older girls wore red tops with their red converse.

I love fall in this part of the country. The leaves turn all of the colors and the temperature feels so nice after the long hot, humid summer.

Little Miss Storm wasn’t interested in cooperating with her smiles today., but we did get a couple of smiles from her.


Here are some more of our group photoshoots:

2016 Family Photos

The boys and I took some family pictures this past month, so I could hang them around the house.

One nice weather day, we dressed in white and took some pictures in the backyard. These boys are just so adorable!

We also, took a few pictures in our living room. They are so silly, with their great personalities!

Another beautiful day, so we went to the school to take some pictures with the brick wall. My boys are great little models, so cooperative!
