Meet the T family - October's Winners!

Meet Nick, Grace, and Henry.  Their mom won my October drawing, and as they live in the Mankato area, I was able to capitalize on my visit to my hometown for my nephew's birthday.  We went to Minneopa State Park to do the pictures.  It was such a beautiful day, the park was crawling with photographers!

Nick is 14 and VERY TALL.  Grace will be 5 soon and Henry is 3.  We had to make sure that Nick didn't tower over the younger kids, so I pulled out our old family loveseat to help group them better. 

Henry really didn't want to cooperate in the beginning, but after a little persuasion and a few tricks up my sleeves, I got some cute smiles out of him.  I heard his mom say that they were going to get some DQ once they were done.  Lucky kids!

And then there's Grace.  At almost 5 she didn't know how grown-up to be.  You could tell she wanted to play, but she also knew she had to be on her best behavior.  Of course, that meant she had a little difficulty always looking into the camera, but we talked about her favorite princesses.  She likes Ariel and Cinderella the best.

And once again I'm going to share a picture that I just love.  There's nothing like secrets between siblings, though I don't think Henry really shared a secret.  I think he just whispered funny words into Grace's ear.
