it has been too long since i did a giveaway. so, i figured i would kick off the end of the summer with a big one. and this is BIG! i fell head over heels with this talented artist on instagram immediately. she is so good! when i received this little treasure, i was teary eyed and loved it more than i had imagined. and all she needed was few images from me and soon after it was in my mailbox!
and now you can have one too! betsy from betsymadeshop has offered up a family portrait for one of you! (she will even include the family dog and/or cat for a minimal charge)

last summer night.
9.1.14
our night went pretty much nothing as planned.
1. rain storm at the pool
2. waiting for taylor over 30 min to finish cross country practice
3. dead battery in the car because the lights were unknowingly on
4. 1st car that attempted to help me jump my car we could not find the negative on the battery? (damn new cars)
5. dinner at 8:15pm. on a school night. in a bar.
6. BUT they were in bed by 9pm. and we had such great conversations!
side note: these images were 20 seconds after i pulled out my camera and about 30 seconds after that it started raining. ella was there but running around with her best friend. taylor was at cross country practice. and easton was at home with daddy resting.
happy eve of first day of school!
evening walk.

this poor little guy has been sick since he woke up. we laid in bed with him until 5pm. when he said he wanted to take a walk, we were happy to get out of the house and enjoy some fresh air. hoping tomorrow is a brand new (healthy) day.
new (to him) helmet.
