I went out to Illinois to visit my dear friend Lauren and her beautiful family. =)

Lauren and I met through our husbands when we were all stationed in Okinawa Japan. We had an instant connection and bonded over the years we lived there together. Lots of dancing, Making dinners together, Sharing holidays… So to visit her, years later when we all have kiddos and are 8 years older than before it’s pretty stinking neat! lol

 

Loved spending time with them, and I’m thrilled we were able to have a mini family session <3

Big shout out to Erin (Lauren’s sister) for helping during our session! <3
