CHIMNEY ROCK!

While my sisters were here we took a little road trip over to Chimney Rock with the Fredericks. It was a long day with all the driving (over six hours by the time we got home) but well worth the trip! I had been there with Brent back in February and it was cool, but there was still some ice on the falls so the trail was closed...total bummer since we drove so far to get down there. Anyways, it was open this time and it was really cool, supposedly it's the waterfall from last of the mohicans? You be the judge.

The kidos decided to graffiti their names onto the fence around the "opera box"...







Hickory Nut Falls...









All tuckered out after the funnest day EVER (Maddie claims that she was just pretending to be asleep and heard me take this picture...I'm not buying it)...

Frederick Family Fotos

Our good friends the Fredericks, just moved away to Ohio a couple of weeks ago for Justin's fellowship and before they left we took a little trip over to Old Salem and I shot some family portraits for them as well as some individual shots of their kids. Unfortunately, baby Maia wasn't really into the whole picture thing and cried almost the entire time...but we still got a couple good group shots and a few nice ones of the kids. Katie, I hope you like some of them enough to get them printed because you have beautiful children and you should show them off!!





Ok, I guess she wasn't crying the whole time...























Justin tried to get Maia to smile by throwing her up in the air, it didn't really work, but it was a good effort! Thanks for letting me practice on you guys, I hope you like them!
