Turning 4 {Racine Wi, Kid Photographer}

Do you remember being young and having the best birthday parties ever?

This little girl had quite possibly the cutest Pink Lemonade Birthday party I have ever seen!  Her mom thought of everything from Pink Lemonade to drink to Pink Lemonade cupcakes and cookies.  Everything matched and looked just beautiful.  The best part of the party quite possibly had to be the Owl piñata…little kids make the best faces when candy is involved!

What was your favorite birthday party growing up?

Close Family {Round Lake Beach IL, Family Photographer}

Do you have family that live close by or far away?  Do you visit your relatives by car, plane, or boat?  Do you see everyone daily, monthly or annually?

I’m pretty lucky with having a majority of my family close by, with the exception of a few that live a bit farther away.  My Aunt, Uncle and cousins are one of these families…they live just over the state line in Minnesota.  Last weekend we were all together for another family member’s wedding.  It’s always so fun to see how much everyone has grown and what is going on in each other’s lives; braces, karate, driving licenses, and school fun.

It’s great to realize that with family, it really doesn’t matter how far or close they live from you…family is always close by.
