Happy Birthday Sam!!!!

A couple of days ago Sam turned ONE! Sam is one of Bonnie's (that's Sammy with the purple hat on her site) boys, and he's just a fabulous kid. Totally easy going and happy as a clam. He's one that could make even the sourest sourpuss smile. Ben fixed his own plate of jalapenos, pickles, lemons and onions! Sam ate up his slice of birthday cake with a fork. He looked directly at Josh and said 'Dada' for the first time. Sweet Anja filmed the whole celebration. Mia got hooked on photography. There was so much fun had by all. I posted a couple of shots yesterday, and here are some more of my fave shots of the sweetest little boy (not a baby any more) ever with his family and friends.

Bonnie's Guys

I always look forward to hanging with my lovely friend, Bonnie. When our families get together there's always this laid back vibe that makes for a nice time.

These are Bonnie's guys: Josh, Sammy and Ben (well, his feet on Sam's new ball). They were all watching Bonnie taking a portrait of another fabulous family, the Simon's. Taking amazing shots is one of Bonnie's forte's. I'm sure they guys have watched her take thousands upon thousands of photos, but they are still so captivated by what she does...that and the Simon's were making silly faces at the camera :)

I picked this shot for my best shot because I just dig the easy feel of it.

Here's another shot I had to add....an impromptu family portrait I took of them. Talk about the tables being turned!
