First Photo Shoot

Our first photo shoot was with Carrie Nawarynski Photography.  Carrie was referred to me by my cousin's fiance.  Carrie is located closer to the Allentown area so when she suggested us having the pictures taken at a park near her home, we were happy to oblige.  Any time out and away from home is a good time, even if it is only 45 minutes away.

We we went to Lock Ridge Furnace Park and if you Google that, you can find out where it is.  The park was beautiful.  It is the location of the Lock Ridge Iron Works, which closed in 1921.  The stone structures that are still standing are amazing and are a perfect place for pictures.  Once we were done with our pictures, we decided to walk through the park.  Baby Girl wasn't crazy about it, but she managed.


If you look closely at the last picture, you will see a snake.  I almost stepped on that thing but when I saw it, I screamed like a little girl and ran!  Fortunately it was dead but Bryan had a good laugh.

The best part of the park?  The field of Blue Bells.  This is a Blue Bell...

There is literally a small field of these things in that park.  They were almost done blooming and had been pretty trampled when we did our photos but they were still beautiful.

The photo shoot starts in the field of Blue Bells and then ends at the stone structures. 


It was pretty windy so we had to work around that but Baby Girl did a great job.  She gave us about 45 minutes of happy time and then she was done!  There are so many great pictures of her and I can't wait to get them printed!  We will do another photo shoot in August when she is 8 months old.  I can't wait to see all of the changes in her then!

Blog Commenting Challenge!

Linking up with Jenna's Journey  for the 3rd Annual Blog Commenting Challenge! Hi! I'm Vanessa! I live with my husband Bryan and my amazing 6 month old Ashlyn in Pennsylvania. I was born and raised here and love it very much! We have 2 pugs, Katie and Utley, one black lab, Camo and one cat, Joey. Our second cat, Kitty, is sadly recently deceased (on Father's Day). I work full time as a Marketing Analyst for a supply chain consulting firm. I don't even know what that means really! I have been here for 3 years and am thinking about a career change. SAHM is looking better and better. My husband owns his own landscaping business which has been both wonderful and horrible at the same time! My husband and I know each other for about 17 years now and we have been together for 12. We got married in September of 2010, just 2 weeks shy of our 10th anniversary! We got pregnant after only 2 months of trying and last December we were greeted by Ashlyn Marie Miller,

I'm Not Gonna Lie

Anyone who knows me know that I LOVE Christmas.  I love the decorations.  I love to decorate my own house and see all of the other cool decorations other people have.  There is a house down the street from us that always has more lights and decorations than I have ever seen in one yard.  It's a bit much but it's an attention grabber. I love the Christmas tree.  I love to get the tree out each year (yes we have a fake because I can't stand the needles) and I love to decorate it.  Growing up, our family would decorate the tree together with all kinds of ornaments that we had collected over the years.  I like to do themes for my trees.  Last year I did pink and silver in honor of the newest member of our family.  I'm really hoping to instill the tradition of decorating the tree with my kids. I love finding the perfect gifts for people and I love to watch their reactions when they open those gifts.  I generally wait until I have purchased ALL of my gifts, I sort them
