Meet Oliver, Owen, and Reed...three cousins. Mother nature provided the session's entertainment with wildflowers, gopher holes, dirt, and cow poop. It's times like these that I'm glad Jason doesn't ever come to sessions with me. He'd be so jealous of the way the boys played vs the way our girls play. The boys didn't once put a flower in their hair, complain about their shoes getting dirty, or pretend to get married. They grabbed sticks, climbed logs, and looked for wildlife. It's a different lifestyle with boys. One quick note too...Jessica (the girl on the right of the family photo) and her husband Glenn (the guy conveniently next to her) are the owners of The Beneficial Bee. They gave me a tube of their organic peppermint lip balm, which I've been using at an embarrassingly frequent rate cause it tastes so good.

And finally...one of my favorite images from the afternoon...I'd exhausted my supply of whistles, fake farts, and cow noises trying to get Reed to look up from the dirt he was handling. Kate nuzzled into him in the hopes of distracting him. While it didn't distract him, it sure made for great photos. I love it when something doesn't turn out like you expected.
