friends for 22 years | friend and family photography

recently, i won a workshop out in seattle.

you may have heard about it.

i had an incredible time with my other friends at the workshop and with zack arias and his wife meghan and creativeLIVE.

when i wasn’t over at creativeLIVE, though, i was hanging out with one of my friends from college, Laurie, and her husband, and their two kids.

i had a blast.

how could you not when have a superhero to play with?

this was my first time meeting Laurie’s husband and their children.

i think i have at least 2 new bestfriends whenever i head back to seattle.

these kids completely cracked me up.

the faces this little girl makes…

and this guy…  cutest little boy ever.

i suspect this little girl may…just…be…

{ maybe }

daddy’s little girl.

their family is precious together.

a typical family of laughs, meltdowns, tantrums, more laughs.

mom and dad tired at night.

get up in the morning,

and do it all again.

but together, they work.

together.

they are a family.

and…

my favorite part?

getting a high five from this three year old who never high-fives anyone.

priceless.

already i can’t wait to go back.
