Better Late Than Never

To Keep With the Theme of Celebrating?!

My super talented friend Hollie has done it again! She took these pictures for us at Reese's birthday party back in October. She has been so crazy busy with Christmas pictures and other things that we just got them back last night. I love them! She did some really fun things with the coloring too. I tried narrowing down what to put on here, but there are still a bunch because I just loved too many.









This last one is my absolute favorite! Go ahead and click on it if you can handle the cuteness!

Oh those are AWESOME pics. Really really TOO cute. Rachel, Reese is the cutest little kid! And I'm not just saying that.

Cynthia said...

So cute! The last one is my favorite too. I caught myself laughing when I saw it. Which, by the way, is kind of weird to laugh and then look around to explain why you're laughing and realize there is nobody else around to hear you laugh. Hm.

those pictures are amazing! My newest hobby (or desire to hobby) is photography. Bret got me photoshop for Christmas and I've been reading like crazy trying to figure out how to do it. Your friend is really good! Someday I hope my picture are not blurry...that would at least be a start :-).

Love 'em! I *really* enjoy Hollie's work.

Rachel B. said...

Isn't Hollie awesome? We really have been spoiled having her as a friend.

Cynthia, your comments always make me laugh! Your comment about the Magic Bullet was hilarious too.

Which brings me to Heidi. Heidi! You don't know what a Magic Bullet is?!? :) It's basically a mini-blender. When I saw the info-mercials that's exactly what I said, but very sarcastically, "wow, so it's a mini-blender." Apparently it is quite the gadget set though. Tom's been so busy with work that he hasn't opened it yet so I'll let you know when he does. And I'm still so sad Hollie was out of town that time you came to visit and wanted pics of Austin.

Marisa, you could totally be a photographer. Those pictures you posted on your blog of your kids a while back when you were practicing were awesome! And that's perfect because I'll need a new photographer friend when we move to Ohio right? ;)

Those pictures are AMAZING!!!! I need to hire her to take pictures of my family. The color work is so beautiful, too. It also helps that Reese is the absolute cutest thing ever.

I have to say... I could hardly handle THAT much cuteness!!! She IS adorable, what a treasure to have those photos!

hi Rachel, these pictures are beautiful! Thank you for reading my blog!! Ok, so I'm excited that you want to try to come to the blog party! It would be so great if you and Mindy both came. I'll keep you posted on the information. If you email me I can add you to the group email list etc.
Thanks!!

Reese is too cute to handle! I love the pics and especially your innovative cake creation.

Where did you get that hat? I must get one for Jocelyn's bday.

those are all so cute! i love her hat.

Those pictures are really cute. Damien and I have been using photoshop for over a year and have about 10 books as well as training videos on it, but there is so much to learn I can't do it working and having kids. Maybe someday I will be as good as your friend. Not only is Reese absolutely adorable, but the photo editing really is great. Thanks for posting the pictures!

Rachel,
you can check out our website- jesseandlauren.com for pics. I am starting jesseandlauren.blogspot.com, but I don't have any pics up there yet, and not much in the way of posts yet either. It's fun being able to reconnect with you through your blog.
