Samppala Family // Marymoore Park
Such fun, this family was such fun. I will admit that the littlest one took a little while to warm up to me but by the end I think she felt that my presence was tolerable. :) We met up at Marymoore Park in Redmond which is a great place. There is something for everyone – dog park, playgrounds, soccer & baseball fields, bike trails, and on and on.
I’ve know Jill since college so I was really excited when she asked if I would take pictures of her family. A good time was had and it is evident that as a family they enjoy one another. Thanks for a great time at the park… enjoy!
I asked that this next picture be part of a sweet Christmas card…
WARNING: Cuteness is about to hit you
A good time was being had, I must be hilarious — please see laughter below for proof!
A new favorite
My guy, I tell you he is too cute and hilarious for words. He is so happy all the time. I am a lucky parent. Took these during breakfast a couple of days ago and they have quickly become some new favorites.

Where to begin…? Erin has known me since my awkward teenage/high school years as I am good friends with her sister. But not until recently did we have much more in common than that. Within weeks of each other both of us were blessed to have premature baby boys. My son was six weeks early and If memory serves me, within two weeks of my son being born her baby boy was born ten weeks early. The four week difference between six and ten weeks is HUGE. Needless to say, over this little guy’s first year he has shown strength, tenacity and an incredible fiesty spirit as he has been in and out of the hospital. I have been able to follow their story over the last year via friends and their family blog. So when Erin and I were able to set up a time for family pictures I was so excited to see them and this little man which I have heard so much about.
This family just gets better – in addition to their amazing son they have an adorable little girl. This little girl is too cute – I basically did my best to keep up with her as she ran around the park. It was obvious that through the hard times they have endured as a family they have a closeness and a joy for life and each other which I was privileged to see. I had so much fun. Thank you for letting me share some time with the family – enjoy the images!
