"We have different gifts, according to the grace given to each of us. If your gift is prophesying, then prophesy in accordance with your faith; if it is serving, then serve; if it is teaching, then teach; if it is to encourage, then give encouragement; if it is giving, then give generously; if it is to lead, do it diligently; if it is to show mercy, do it cheerfully," Romans 12:6-8

One simple word--- Family.

I am so grateful for the gift of FAMILY. God knew what he was doing when he created the unit of family. Today was the first of two days, filled of wonderful families. I woke up this beautiful fall morning and was blessed to work with two great families--- The Colby Family and The Miles Family. It made for a very amazing morning. Both of these families are raising their children with both love and the Lord ever so present. One of the most inspiring things today, was seeing these fathers with their sons. Loving and leading them so well, that the love between the siblings, was something special as well. God Bless family! Here is just a little small tease of my time with them. More to come later in the week--- Happy Fall!

Time with Josiah….

I came upon these really, really cute hats--- I could not resist them They are made by Miss E’s Crochet, you can find her on facebook. She does amazing work, is reasonably priced, and did I say she is really sweet?!?! You should really check her stuff out!

While spending time with Josiah, it only seemed fitting to try the new hats out. He is one charming little man--- and his sisters just can’t get enough of him. He is their “real life doll”, and they are just infatuated with him. I have to say--- I am too. It was so much fun, capturing his smiles, expressions, and sweet sleepy face. Thanks Josiah for being such a good sport!

Mrs. Kerns Trash the Dress Session

Lauren Kerns is a beautiful woman inside and out. She is an intentional, caring, encouraging, and loving friend--- who has blessed my life in so many ways. Last night we ventured out into the fields and captured Lauren in her gorgeous dress. I am not sure what was beaming brighter--- the sun or Lauren’s radiant face. She puts on that dress and is just glowing. Spending time the with Kerns’ is always refreshing, their love for each other is overwhelming, inspiring and selfless. It is the kind of love that people pray for. I know that they will have many, many years of happiness and that their marriage will give back amazing things to this world. Lauren you are gorgeous, Danny--- you are very lucky! Hope you enjoy this tease from our time together.
