Lauren - I LOVE her dress! Too cute!

Sarah Martin - Sweet baby! Beautiful pics!

melanie - Afton is gorgeous. And of course she seems like yours. I think there are many of us who spent so much time praying for her that we love her just as if she were ours. But her parents can still take care of the diapers!

Debbie - Too cute for words!!! You are amazing. Thank you for capturing our beautiful granddaughter!!! I am in awe.

Jenn - Thank you, thank you, thank you!!! Once again, these are perfect. We are always blessed by your pictures. And yes, she isn’t “technically” yours, but someday she will be your daughter-in-law and until then she is lucky to have you as an aunt. Thanks, Ash, you are truly amazing.

Shannon Phillips - She is not mine either, but I love her too! What a beautilful little lady you’ve got there Jenn! Ash, you truley captured Afton’s little personality. Great Job.

Iron-on Canvas {example pics}

Here’s a couple pictures of those wall canvas hangings I was working on. They are a little over 3ft x 4ft…I made 7, which are now hanging in the preschool halls of my church. You can find the instructions here

evolution & brotherly love

We enjoyed a little trip to the zoo on Monday morning…with school starting it was nearly empty and we had the place almost to ourselves. Our version of evolution…

I am thinking about ordering really big gallery wrap canvas prints of the next two for the boy’s bathroom. They were laughing so hard they were crying while doing this. Nothing sounds greater than when they are laughing together, so naturally I let them go at it. Can’t break up brotherly fun that doesn’t involve danger. I love to post pictures like this because I know some of you absolutely CRINGE at the thought of letting your kids do this and others think it is great. Leave a comment and let me know which one you are….

grandma campbell - yep these are my fun loving, energetic grandsons, love it

Beth - Kids wash! I love this!

sheridan - so fun! what great memories and totally agree let them go at it!

Sarah Martin - It’s not fun unless you’re brushing sand from their teeth! LOL! I love the little film from all the dirt in the bathtub water after bath time; it means they have played really hard and had a great day!! They are precious and the boys ARE in class together! SOO FUN!

bopha - you are doing a good deed, i am getting much better with letting Lincoln “let loose” and beth is right, they wash very easily.

Ang - It makes me want to have another boy!

Jenn - They are “true” boys… I love it!!! You are such a great mom to let them get down and dirty. I also love that Hudson is holding his cars in both set of pictures…. so stinkin’ cute!!

Lesley - I love it! I agree with Jenn on the “stinkin cute” and did notice Hudson’s got the cars in the evolution shot! Too funny. You’re such a fun mom.

amanda torres - I love it! I just hope Mason’s baby sister is ready to get down and dirty after she’s born. I love the messy side of boys…as long as it’s outside. The evolution pics are very cute.

Natasha - Hello!
Thank you so much for the comment on our blog.
As you saw we are happy at home with Avi Joy and waiting to travel back to Vietnam for Nehemiah.
I see you have 3 beautiful boys and are a very talented photographer!!! I LOVE your work!

I ran into someone you know as well.
A girl from my CBS bible study, Ashley Walls, knew you from a small group at church. I got an update on how you were doing a couple of months ago from her : )

Blessings
Natasha

Lauren - You know my boys are all about the dirt!

Nana - They remind me of their mom and their aunt when they were little!

Rachel - I’m sure this comment won’t make me popular, but, since you asked, I have to admit that these pics (as cute and full of life as they are) give me total anxiety…in fact, I think I might be hyperventilating as we speak…I gotta go…grab a paper bag….

cindy - I love this! And Especially love Hudson’s face when he is throwing the dirt… You’re an awesome mom! It’s good to let boys be boys!

Jeannette Swan - I need to let you play with my boys in the dirt – one of Camden’s first words was “dirty” – that’s my fault, my kids don’t like to get dirty. Maybe I could sacrifice a little dirty for pictures as cute as these!
