Check out these shots that were shot at a beautiful park in Nashville that Lauri loved. I don't remember the name of the park, but I do remember the pain from that day. Basically, it held a former Texan's worst nightmare...
AN INCLINE.
It was the hill that never seemed to end. And worst of all, nobody could tell me when it ended. Trust me, I flagged down every single passerby to ask and nobody could tell me how far we had to go. Poor Lauri (who was lugging a CHILD around, mind you) kept looking over at my slightly terror stricken face and asking me if I was ok. My only consolation was that soon we'd have to be going downhill, right? Right? Anybody??....

Think this was right before she crawled into my lap and went for the camera. =)





All I can say is that no matter how hard you try to keep them from sticking random objects in their mouths, it's a losing battle. They're faster than you are. Guaranteed! ;-)



My favorite shot from the shoot (shot right into the sun for this one)...



This was so cute. Lauri put Elise on her shoulders and all Elise wanted to do was just kiss her Mom's cheek. Precious!




Look at those two front teeth... ;-)

This shoot is special to me because we prayed for this little one, for a long time before Lauri ever found out she was pregnant. He is truly the God who hears us. Nothing is impossible with Him, nothing!
But I call to God,and the Lord saves me...He hears my voice.
-Ps 55:16-17
What is impossible with men IS possible with God.
-Luke 18:27
