Bitty Girl -- Day 330

Over 5 years ago I captured an image of my oldest niece playing on the tire swing. Today her little sister was wearing the same knitted skirt that Aunt Amber made for them. The tire swing is no longer hanging or we would have taken a picture there. It's so fun to see this skirt still being loved.

Jocelyn Smiles -- Day 288

Cliff-Side View -- Day 361 -- Winner of Viewer's Choice Poll

Today we took a hike with the family. Abbie was in charge of our Niece as we walked along the cliffs. They were lagging behind as we were nearing the end of our walk and I got some good shots of them. Abbie was pointing out something she saw across the river below. I love how this shot turned out. It was somewhat posed (meaning I had them recreate the look, since I wasn't ready with the camera when she first pointed. :))

Angel Chimes -- Day 357

My niece agreed to pose for my photo today. :) We've had these angel chimes for as long as I can remember. Every year we light the candles and listen as the heat from the candles make the angels spin around and ring the bells to announce the coming of the baby Jesus. :)

Lounging in Daddy's Chair -- Day 258

This little gal is my only niece, whom we call, Miss Ham. She's always being silly trying to make us laugh. :) Here she's posing in her daddy's chair. She has a ways to go before she grows into it. :)

Three Cuties -- Day 182

My nephews and niece were here for the holiday weekend. It wasn't easy to get them all to smile at the same time. :) But I think this one turned out great. :)
