Family pics Phuket-style

We waited towards the end of the week to do our beach pics ... and the rain nearly kept us from getting any. We went for it, though, and after a couple different "takes", we were able to get a few. The Father gave us an amazing backdrop ... all we had to do was just show up with our camera and tripod.

Not sure how our first born blossomed into such a beautiful young lady overnight ... but she has. We fell in love with her long before knew her. We love her gentle spirit and couldn't be more proud of the person she is.

And we're also proud of this guy!! His heart is pure and his love for life and his ability to see good in others contantly challenges us!! He was MADE for this new life He has called us to.....

According to a baby name site, Emma means "whole; complete." And that she has done to our family. We love her wit, her love for family, and her willingness to just go with it. And of course, we never know what will come out of her mouth, but it's usually something that keeps us laughing.

We love these three more than we ever thought we could.....

We even got a few of mom and dad....
