Its a book filled with tons of fun questions for you and you significant other to fill out, its good way to maybe find out some things you never knew about the person. :o) First person to comment gets it shipped to them!

My Family!

Our first family photos was with Vanessa when Laila was just a couple weeks old and I put it off again until now! Photographer, Armin came to my house for some casual fun family photos with us! We started off inside and then took a little walk for some outside stuff. I dont know why more people don’t get photos at home, I love how much more personal it makes my photos and I know I’m going love looking back and remembering the time we spent in that house, no matter how long or short! Here’s a handful of them!


This is us, every morning, all cuddled up in bed.
