A Weekend Photo Shoot

This weekend was so wonderful...even with the crummy weather on Saturday.  Friday night we picked up Peyton's slide and ended up playing outside until 8pm. we lost all track of time.  Saturday we invited some friends over to grill out and we had "planned" to light the fire pit as well.  Needless to say the fire pit didn't happen and all the kids had to play inside, but we still had a great time!  Sunday we all went to church and then we had a photo session with Peyton.  Sunday night after Peyton went to bed, the hubby and I lit up the fire pit and grilled out for a 2nd night.  We sat outside together until 9pm and just enjoyed the silence.  Nights like that remind me why I love living out in the country!
A few months ago we invested in a digital SLR camera so we could do our own photos and get really good pics of Peyton.  We've always used JC Penney before but for her Easter and 1 year pics, we really wanted to try to do them ourselves.  So yesterday we took time to do some Spring/Easter pics and in a week or so we'll put Peyton in her birthday outfit and do her 1 yr pics.  I can't even begin to express how happy I am with these photos.  I can't wait to get them printed and framed!  Here are a few (of the 30 something odd pics we took!) of my favorites...
