Every single January and July we got to Knoxville to visit with two of my oldest and dearest friends, and their families.  Sonja, Mandy, and I met in college, almost 20 years ago.  Our families have grown up together, and their kids are the closest thing to cousins that my children have. I love them dearly and our family looks forward to these traditions.  We have a ton of photos of our kids through the years, and we love recreating the same poses through the years.   Mostly of the kids and not quite as many of ourselves, but this time, we made sure to get one of the three of us.  My nine year old, Megan, gets credit for this photo.  We were being silly and trying to imitate the photo I had taken a few minutes earlier of our eldest daughters.  I think we did pretty good - we are even in the right order. I expect to have similar photos 20 years from now.

Love these pictures?  Please take a minute follow me on Facebook , Instagram, Google+ or Pinterest and share with your friends who might be interested.   Email me now to book a session to capture your own family's beautiful moments.
