As a mom of 3 late teen/early 20 year old boys, I imagine having a little girl just like her. Enjoy both of your children- they truly do grow up so quickly! I admire your photography skills, too!

    oh, Joss is absolutely precious! I love her beautiful red dress (and ballet shoes)! Can’t wait to see the pretty pink Christmas dress too!

Snyder Family Session 2013

King kids decorate our tree

Our kids LOVE decorating our tree and Joss has continued to decorate it by rearranging the ornaments on the tree. Every ornament has a memory and tells a little story. It’s so precious to remember them together. Even the pugs get in on the fun.
