So…it’s been a really long time since I blogged last…like 1/2 a year! Hey – I’ve had a lot going on! 
Josh and I recently got to have maternity photos taken by Daniel and Nicole…well, pictures by Nicole, Daniel was there for moral support for Josh I think, and I figured this was the best way to break the non-blogging streak.
The day of the shoot, we agreed early that we would make it quick so we could go get some sushi for dinner. Here’s one of the 1st photos…
Next, Josh wanted to get some pics on the jungle gym….but on the way over, he spotted a little trail that led into a wooded cove area and thought it would look really cool, Nicole agreed, so we walked down a hill and over a little stream and as we got to the area where the sun was coming through the trees I saw something move…right about then Josh said, “Oh, a frog!” And Nicole froze. Then, we saw another one, it was small, but as we looked closer we realized there were tons of these tiny frogs hopping around, and I started to laugh and I said, “Nicole, aren’t you scared of frogs?” as I turned around and saw her, I laughed even harder…she had turned her back to the frogs and was speaking scripture under her breath…”for I do not have a spirit of fear…” Really?! Hilarious! These frogs were smaller than a nickel in diameter! So I said, ok, fast, take some pictures and we’ll get out of here…she looked at me, and I seriously thought she would start casting those frogs from the woods at any moment “in Jesus’ name” but she didn’t. She mustered up every ounce of self-control she had and took some AMAZING photos!!
The moment she had the shots she wanted, she bolted back up the hill…! On to the playground! One of my favorites…
I’m pretty sure Daniel was still joking with Josh about Nicole and the frogs when this one was taken…hahaha!!
We really are blessed to have such amazing and fun people as friends! Thanks guys…!!!
