Guthrie Family Photos 2013

We took family photos last August and I just realized while creating our Christmas cards, I forgot to post our pictures!  Last year I took the kids pictures for our Xmas cards, but we needed an updated family photo session because Alexa has grown so much since the last session we had when she was only a few months old.
I look forward to our annual family photo session, although the preparation can be a bit stressful... Several months beforehand, I start thinking about when?.  Our outfits, work & school schedules depend on it.  Once that is decided, it's on to our wardrobe!  My focus always starts with Gordon's shirt, always.  Take a look at previous posts--his shirt selection has always been my inspiration for clothing the rest of the family!
This year we took our pictures in August, in a new location at a park in Ankeny, a city north of Des Moines.  There are so many good ones and I wish I could post them all!!!

Kirsten's 4th Birthday Party!

We celebrated Kirsten's 4th birthday like Royalty with a Princess Party!  One of the best things about the party were the attendees, which included "real" Princesses.  Ariel, Rapunzel, and Tinkerbell helped Kirsten and her 10 little friends have a wonderful time. I took so many photos that it was hard to narrow them down! Check out the slide show below:

Happy Halloween 2013

Halloween 2013 was a lot of fun for Ariel, Sophia, Skeleton, and we can't forgot Prince Charming and the Enchanting Princess!

We all got dressed up this year!  Drake was a skeleton, Kirsten was Ariel from the Little Mermaid, Alexa was Sophia the First, and as you can see from the picture Gordon and I are royalty!
