OH MY GOOD LORD!!! The website is back, and I can stop being nauseous ALL THE TIME. Thanks to all the great people out there who emailed and called to let me know there was a problem in the first place. There was a virus on our site thanks to our old hosting company’s REALLY bad security. The virus was found and eliminated thanks to my AMAZING husband Dustin, and the hard workers (Jamon, Dustin and Neal) at Baldology. Guys… a drink is on me in Vegas.

We have a new hosting company with amazing security, and a site that is virus free and ready to rock! Thank you all so much for your patience and understanding during this time of what felt like the total destruction of my soul. This website has really truly become a part of me and I felt so empty without it. I am happy to have it back and in great health. I have lots I’ll be posting over the next few days, but today we’re off to be a part of Jessica and Keith’s AWESOME wedding! And really, now that the site is back up, we are most certainly ready to ROCK!

My oldest niece, Megan, turned 10 years old last week. In honor of hitting double digits she invited a few of her friends over for a slumber party that included makeovers and a photo shoot and her VERY cool Auntie Sarah’s studio. I wanted to make Meg’s 10th birthday as memorable as my own was. (Let’s put it this way, I got a pink boom box that had a shoulder strap so I could properly carry it around AND the “Dirty Dancing” Soundtrack. How could any birthday ever even compete?) It was a lot of fun with some fun girls at the studio.

Thanks to Megs, Phe, Sierra and Taylor for being awesome models and for celebrating Megan in style! You guys rocked it out. And Megan, you are amazing and I’m so happy to call you my favorite 10 year old on the planet! Check out the slideshow below or HERE for more images of these crazy kids.

Babies, babies, babies! They’re everywhere and they are making me hungry for a little chubby snugglefest. (Have I ever mentioned how NOT into snuggling Lauren is?) Lukas just brings out the need for baby in me. He is ADORABLE, and oh so holdable. He is just a little ball of love and cuteness, and it’s just impossible to not want that around you. Karlene and Shawn brought their little man into the studio to rock some three month portraits. Can I just say this boy has personality PLUS! He’s 3 months old and he’s a ham! I love him.

We worked in some quick family pictures as well. I hope Karlene and Shawn will forgive me for putting these images up, but I just love how cute EVERYONE is in these pictures. I think we can see where Luke gets some of that amazing personality of his. He sure is one lucky guy to have such cool parents who like him ever so much.

A big thank you to Shawn, Karlene and Lukas for a great session! I love that we’re getting together every three months to document the growth of this little(ish) man. Check out their slideshow below or HERE for more sweet images from an awesome shoot!
