chelli + jeff

I think it is great when married couples want to have a photo session, just for fun.  Spending the time together, and having the photo memories to look back on….I would say a photo session is almost like a good therapy session for a married couple.  ;) And I am only half kidding.

Jeff an Chelli are getting ready to celebrate 18 years together this December.  They made the trip down to Cincy from Columbus for the shoot, and if they look familiar, it is because they did a session with us at the end of last summer as well!

Cincinnati had a very colorless fall this year due to the lack of rain, but we found a FANTASTIC patch of color that evening!

I love this one….

Jeff and Chelli, you guys are awesome.  Thanks again for coming down and hanging with us!!

Family time in New Mexico {part II}

If you missed the first part of our vacation, look here, then come back.  :)  Here are a few more days of our family trip in October.

We spent a day at Bandelier National Monument, where we were able to explore around ancient ruins of the Pueblo people.  I heard someone say it was home to Anasazi people, which the kids loved because we studied them a bit last year.

The kids loved climbing into the cliff dwellings.

Some of Brett’s college buddies came along.  Here’s Mark and Gracie.  :)

Brett’s friend Jacob came with his family as well.

Dinner at Mark and Mel’s was a great end to the evening.  Can you tell I like my little boy?

Sunset outside their house…

Next day – Poor Priya

New Mexico is known for its red chile peppers…

Priya’s 11th birthday was the day we arrived to New Mexico. She loved when she was serenaded.  ;)

Thanks for looking. I’m not done just yet.  ;)
