My mom's birthday was on a Friday this year, so Buddy and I figured we would go out to pick Avery up and bring her dinner from one of our favorite restaurants, Roma. After a very eventful trip, we finally made it out to the ranch with food in hand. Earlier in the week, I had the idea to do a picture with my mom seeing as it was the week of her birthday, THEN, I thought "What if I'm in the picture too?"
I have kind of been thinking a lot recently about how I'm not in a whole lot of the pictures that I take. I'm cool with it because I don't usually like how I look in pictures, but I then remember back on a picture I have with my mom when I was younger, in this pink "night gown" I stole from her (pretty sure it was something she used long ago to nurse in??) and my bear who was wearing a tutu. It was one of my favorite pictures.. not because of the bear or the tutu, but because it was a picture of me and my mom!!! So while Avery is still an only child, I figured it was important to get some pictures with her starting now and to really try and get myself in the picture more often, if not for myself, than for Avery. I also thought about how one of my favorite pictures to take is a generation picture.. and I don't have one of those! So, I set the settings, gave my awesome husband a quick tutorial (like 4 seconds long) and had him shoot a generation picture with two of my favorite people in my life. I absolutely love how they turned out!!! Not sure Buddy is ready for it.. but he just may become my handy little personal photographer :)
