atx: kelly's birthday + family pix

Two days after landing back in the good ol' US of A we headed down to Austin for some family pictures with Mommy's side of the family and to celebrate sweet Kelly's 11th birthday. It was tiring to travel again so quickly (bless Ryan for putting up with my crazy scheduling) but it was so fun getting to spend a weekend with the whole fam in Austin!

The puppies always crack me up when we drive... sorry for so many road trip pictures of them! We were in Jim's Yukon this time and it really threw them for a loop.

 



On Saturday, we went on a hike through Lakeway to scout out some good spots for the family pics. It was fun to spend time with my cousins and family outdoors and I was being (probably somewhat annoyingly) nostalgic about all my friend's old houses in Lakeway.



Daddy spiced things up with a jumping picture and Rob, the monkey, climbed several trees.





Rob and Kevin thought this might be a cute pic opp... we turned that one down pretty quickly. But make them pose for it.


That night we had pizza and ice cream cake and played games and watch Kelly open her birthday presents.

 





After presents, Jill, Mommy, Mom, Kelsey and myself had to figure out what everyone was wearing in the pics the next day. After an hour or so of discussion (debate) we landed on the below (which really came out great in the pictures). 


Then it was time for more games, or naps...


Here's a few I snapped during the shoot. The family pictures really did turn out great, thanks so much to Eric Von Lehmden!
