Family Photos at the Beach

When we set out the last night of our week in Oceanside for a quick family photo shoot- I didn't think the sky would be this gorgeous.  Hadley (14) is also an amazing photographer, especially for her age.  She had the perfect eye for some pretty shots.  

Here are my favorite:

Aillon Family- Nov 2013

For my parent's 30th wedding anniversary- Todd and I scheduled and paid for family pictures.  We took them at my parents semi-new (they've been there a little over a year) home.  They have a beautiful lot with like 35 trees and all that.  It was very fun- which not all family photo sessions are and our amazing photographer- Andrea was a rockstar in getting it all done! Thank you, Andrea!  

Black Friday

I am thankful that this is how we started Black Friday: 

Black Friday has turned in to Gray Thursday.  I HATE that the stores are opening on Thursday night. 

 GRRRRRRrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.  

Sadly though, I don't have enough hate or discipline or self control to keep away from the stores on Thanksgiving night.  

It was a marvelous evening.  Hunter and I had a great time finding deals through out the night.  We even slept a little this year! 

Then we woke up and the Garners had our annual family picture on Friday morning. 

We threw JCPennys for a loop. 

I bet you can't wait to see how they turned out.
