Most of us got home around 2AM but it was soo much fun, Ryan and I didn’t feel tired until we actually hit the sack!  Thank you Natasha for documenting last night’s set up! Yay Team!!! Praise be unto our Father in heaven!!!!

Sometimes when I really don’t expect it, God sends me blessings that reminds me He is still with me and my family… To Him, I am forever grateful!

Just a simple reminder to always be thankful for the simple joys in life…

Here is a teaser photo for my friends, Lauralee and Steve. Just a simple picture of their bundle of joy.

It’s late… I know… but at least it’s finally up! Photo’s from our trip to Washington D.C. last August are finally posted!  AND we even have a slideshow because there were just too many photos and I don’t have enough time to post them up individually… :o)

Ryan and I had a GREAT time in D.C.!  I think one of the most exciting time was when we actually got to tour the White House! It was sooo awesome!  One of the Secret Service guys complimented Ryan on his barong tagalog hahah :) That was classic!

I love going on trips with Ryan! Especially to places that we have never been to together! It’s fun experiencing different things, like taking the train and buses and figuring out where they go so we can go to our next destination…

Okay – enough of this blabbing! Here are the photos! But to view more pictures from our slideshow, please CLICK HERE.

We stayed at the Willard Hotel.

Whoever said Facebook (FB) was a waste of time is wrong!  It was through FB that I got a message from Jen asking if I had time to take some family portraits for her family…. uhhh…  Totally! Even though it’s been a crazy busy year.. I would have made time for them no matter what!! They are such a beautiful family, I didn’t want to miss an opportunity to photograph them!

Ryan and I drove to Montclair to meet up with the Veneracion and Galang family last Sunday afternoon at their home. They decided that Downtown Claremont would be the perfect place for their portraits! They were right! I love getting suggestions where to take photos! Now I have another favorite location spot!

Here are some of my favorite photos from that day! To view more please click here to view the slideshow!

 

Beautiful Family: Jen and Ram and baby Mia.
