Father's Day 2011

Father's Day is a great day! We so enjoyed having so much time with Kent. The kids and I woke up early to make eggs benedict (a family tradition) for breakfast before going to church. Felix was asleep when we got back home, but I still took a pic of Kent and the other three. And Kent was nice enough to take a few shots of me too.

Kent is this incredible Dad. I often admire his patience, or his calm with the kids. He loves them so well, and balances me out, in the parent department with ease. Kent is fun! He is always greeted with hugs the second he hits the door, and often begged not to go! The other thing is this man gets up more in the night with the kids then I do! What a blessing. I adore this man, the father of our children. I think he's super handsome too! Thanks for making beautiful kids with me Babe. They sure are spectacular little people.

Then we headed over to my Dad's place with his gift from my Mom. A new bike. He loves it as you can tell!

Isn't my Mom Cute?! Aren't they even cuter together?! (My Mom just got her bike this month too)

This is my Dad's racing game face! I love that my Dad does everything whole heartedly!
And of course the kids wanted to ride a little too. Here are my kiddos in action! P.S. Seger has not stopped wearing this jacket except to be washed (against his wishes) since APRIL! He calls it his soccer jacket and even wears it to bed some nights. He's a little attached!

Before we left my folks house, my brother and his clan showed up. What a treat! My Brother is an amazing father too, and loves his Five kids. I only managed to capture the oldest and the youngest, and their good looking Mom too!

Two times 3 - Calgary Child Photographer

These little girls are cousins, who are all turning two this month. Lucky little girls to have each other so close in age. Their Grandma, oma, Nana, (not sure what she goes by) won a photo shoot with me and decided to use it for these beauties! I'm so glad she did. This was just a really fun shoot! I was so excited going through the edits. I just can't get over Sadie's CUTE smile, and those little curls of Lexi's had me swooning and Sawyer is just so dainty and elegant! As an added bonus I knew their Mom's while I was growing up and it's always fun to see them too! Enjoy the peek. Evelyn you have beautiful Granddaughter's!

Oliver- Calgary Baby Photographer

Meet Oliver. He is my cousins little baby. That makes him perfect! What a privilege it is whenever I am invited to come and capture someones first moments with their child. I find it truly humbling. This time was no different, and even more so because I love Oliver's Mom. Ashley has been a very good friend to me for all my life. Thank you for letting me do this for you. Oliver is perfection, see for yourself.
