Photo of the Day!

Ahhh Ha Moment!

This is one of those moments that makes me giddy! The groom is my amazing brother-in-law and the bride is my new amazing sister-in-law. They had a beautiful wedding on New Year's Eve and I was honored to be the photographer. Good Times. Ciaran is the third Maguire brother to marry and end up in Austin (from Ireland). There is something about Austin. My husband was the first to make the move to Austin. His brother Gareth met his wife at our wedding and now Ciaran met his match and is here as well. Confusing but wonderful! I'll post more photos soon!

2011 moment...

Happy 2011! Ours started with this lovely little girl in her ruby red slippers! While we all celebrated 2011, Amelia slept like an angel. I can't believe 2010 is behind us. Crazy how life moves along. The holidays put a stop to my blogging for the most part. This time of year is always a crazy one in our house (and most of yours I'm sure). We usually have lots of Irish visitors, parties,... and more parties filled with lots of music (including re-occurring renditions of Neil Diamond and Elvis,.. seriously). It was truly amazing and topped off by a great New Year's Eve wedding (I'll post pics soon)! I hope yours was just as wonderful! Now to 2011,.. oh the possibilities!

Covert Operation!

Hope everyone had a fantastic Christmas! I wanted to share these special and 'hard to come by' photos of Pike and Josie. They are two wonderful kids who I had the honor of photographing! Pike loves the camera and was easy! Josie, on the other hand, didn't want me or my camera anywhere near her. So I had to be incredibly sneaky in order to get these of her. It was worth it!









Oh, my sweet girl Amelia came in to help smooth things over for Josie!

This is adorable!

I love this!

This time of year is.......

...one of my favorites! There are so many special moments this time of year. Having kids of my own makes it that much better because I get to watch them take it all in. There is nothing like it! We went to the lighting of the tree at the Capitol this weekend (for the first time ever) and it made me feel so grateful to live in Austin. It was a magical night. My best friend, Laura wrote about a moment we had recently that I also wanted to share. Go to www.metalsgirl.blogspot.com and read about it. Ahhh, I love it all!
