Summer 2012 Wrap-up

It saddens me to say goodbye to summer. It's been a pretty good one. First of all, our darling little one continued to get cuter day by day. At four months, she now wears clothes marked for 6-12 month olds. She's a chunk... but she's a darn cute chunk.

Another reason this summer was particularly remarkable was a special opportunity which we had to take the Little One to meet her paternal grandparents. This would be special in and of itself, however, my parents just happen to live in a particularly amazing part of the world.

Sweden 2012 - batch 3


For any who may read this blog and don't know, my parents are serving a service mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints in Stockholm Sweden. I won't lie, it has been pretty fun to tell people "my parents, who live in Stockholm.." They are two of most favorite people and the two best examples of the kind of husband and parent I want to be. These are good people.

They took us on a all too brief tour of Oscarson family history sites. How many American's know this much about their ancestry and have a father who can actually drive them to see where our family came from? I want to do it again and again. Here's where my great-grandfather went to school. As in this is THE building. How cool is that?

Yet another reason this trip was so special was that my two sisters who had babies within a couple weeks of our little darling were there too. So naturally, we took some pictures.

That's the news in a nutshell. I'll say the rest in photos.

Last, I will leave you with pure cuteness. We have a few shoots coming up soon and I will share favorites as they are done. See you again soon-ish.

You do great work. Your subject matter also happens to be some great-looking people and places, but you really make them shine.
