behind-the-scenes

Just wrapped up the “Smitten” April/May issue of the magazine! In the Keeping in Touch section, we featured three adorable girls (my StellaJane, Mia Marie, and their cousin, Adria Ruth) wearing …

… adorable homemade dresses sewn by Ashley, Adria’s mother, my SIL. I thought you might enjoy the making of the photo. (I did leave out the photos that include me in my sweat pants and baseball cap. 🙂

But the girls were into the performance of it all …

Mia kept giving us a cheesy smile merely BECAUSE we asked (you know how kids are) …

And Stella is always trying to orchestrate things (hmmm, wonder where she gets that from) …

We did have to fuel them. (yummy Organic Clif Kid Fruit Ropes)

I think you’ll like the final photo we chose for the magazine. (In your mailbox and on newsstands soon!)
