A Family Photoshoot

That cutie-pie right there^^ is my niece, Ella, and she's the most adorable thing ever! I love being able hold her and kiss her and watch her grow up. She just started walking a little while ago, and is almost a year old already (wait, what?!). My brother has a super cute little family, and I'm really thankful for all the time that I've spent with them. My sister-in-law, Bethany (you can check out her amazing blog here),  is super cool and I'm so happy that she is a part of my family. We enjoy our crazy shenanigans together (I'll save them for another time).

Last weekend, Bethany asked me if I would take some family photos. It seemed like a great idea until we saw the snow on the ground the next morning. O.o 

Now DON'T GET ME WRONG, PEEPS, I love snow!!!! I look forward to it every year, and I'm sitting here really disappointed right now because our first snow just melted - leaving the outdoors more dull-looking than before. All the beautiful fall leaves are pretty much gone, leaving behind blechy scenery. But, as much as it was a winter wonderland out there, no one likes freezing. And so, in an attempt to save the baby from death by the cold, we rushed our photoshoot a bit. ;) Even though we didn't get a ton of great quality family photos, I shot a few gems that I still think are hands-down adorable.

Yes, my brother looks thrilled in all of these pictures, I know. 

Haha, lipstick marks!! ^.^

Oooh, SNOW!! I don't think she knew what to think about the snow at first. Her facial expressions were amusing. 

She is the cutest, sassiest baby you'll meet. She will immediately win you over with her quirky, gravity-defying hair, and her perfectly kissable, chubby cheeks. I love her so much. She makes me happy whenever I'm around her. 

Anyway, that's all for now, guyz! I hope you enjoyed these pictures as much as I enjoyed taking them. 

Stay cool,
