being kicking up in the air!!! So, I saw an ad in a magazine a few months ago and said -yep, thats what I want to do with my sisters family this year for holiday pictures. Its always a challenge to come up with something fun and creative with 6 very cool kids and 1 mom. They are always up for anything and I knew they'd be up for this. These kids are my guinea pigs all year long when i get a creative itch so nothing is new when I have an idea and it needs executed.
We had a blast doing the shots and I love the boots they found for the photos. They each picked out a pair and a style to match their personality - and it worked perfectly.
I have another gorgeous sister who has 2 kids - I'll share next what we did with her kids!!!
Thanks for stopping by!!! Hope everyone is ready for Christmas!!!

I LOVE these images. THE BEST I have seen in a long time. Seriously though, I loved that you saw this happen and you went out and did it yourself. The boots images are GREAT! You are one creative diva I think
