A Mother's Day In The Garden

{a.k.a. Spring Photo Op, Part 3 :)}


We did this last year and it was a beautiful day then too. Schedels is the perfect backdrop for taking lots of pictures! And I'm sure that is doubly so when they have more flowers blooming in the summer. I didn't even wash my hair before we went so I'm not looking my freshest. ;) (You see why I don't do professional pics? It all just seems like too much effort. Haha!) All we brought with us was our tripod (for a couple family pics), a blanket and bubbles. And we just wandered around!

The visitor's center.



































Sophie wanted to climb up and down this bridge about 50 times. It's really steep! So Craig was hovering just a bit. :)













LOVE this one.

And this one.
And especially this one.
Such a sweet big brother. Love!










Sophie is looking more and more like my mom.



























Another one of my faves of the day.























I love the pictures of them running and jumping.






Love profile pics.


That's the back side of the visitor's center on the hill there.





Such a beautiful day!

Adorable! Love the one of Sophie kissing your cheek and Will posing with his hands in his pockets. He looks so grown up and ORNERY!!!! You do have to go back in the summer because the flower are insanely beautiful!
