This session was the first time I had ever taken photos at our local ice cream place, everyone’s favorite…the Custard Stand!It is absolutely the BEST place to get ice cream on the face of the planet! You can’t beat it! (Did you know they have a website? It’s www.thecustardstand.com. Maybe Matt would like some pictures for his site…? lol)
Anyway, Antonio wanted to go to the Custard Stand for some of his senior pictures, and I don’t think I have ever laughed more during a session! There were people everywhere, of course, and I think he got a bit embarrassed, but it was so fun & we couldn’t stop laughing. His sneak peek photo (that I posted a few weeks ago) was taken there, too. Here’s Antonio:
Thanks for a great session!
I am sick today! I have a cough that has been slowly growing all week, and last night and this morning I started having aches and my eyes were hot (I’m guessing I had a temp) last night. I am really hoping Cohen and Ava don’t get it, they’ll be miserable. I took ibuprofen and I do feel better, so maybe it’s not gonna get me down.
The topic of what everyone is going to be for Halloween has been a hot one at our house the past week or so. Maddie Kate has a great idea for herself, but I won’t share yet and give it away! I was looking for some new tennis shoes for Ava on eBay yesterday and I ran into a Dora costume. Not too original, but Dora is her fave right now, so I showed it to her. She was SO excited when she saw it! It has the black wig and everything, and I asked her if she would wear the black hair, and she says she will. I don’t know if I believe her, because we had an ordeal with Maddie Kate and a black wig when she was 3! She was Snow White that year, and I searched high and low for a wig for her (seriously, I remember driving everywhere!) because that long blond hair just didn’t look like Snow White! I finally found one, and when we put it on she cried so much that we had give up to take it off! She went that year as Snow White with Sleeping Beauty’s hair! I just went on a search for the pictures of that and it took forever, but I finally found them on an old email I had sent out with the pics attached. It’s from 2004, and I took it with one of those ancient digital cameras that you actually put a floppy disk into! (this was before I ever had a digital SLR!) So please ignore the insanely bad quality!
Here she is HATING the wig and bawling:
And now so very happy that I let her take it off:
I love those pictures, I’m so glad I was able to find them! And so glad my digital skills are a tad bit better these days, lol!
Anyway, this all makes me very wary about Ava actually wearing a wig for Halloween at age 3, but she sure won’t look like Dora with her wild auburn hair! She was looking at the costume on eBay again this morning, and she marched into our room and said, “Dad, let’s talk about this whole clothes thing…” and proceeded to inform him all about the Dora outfit she is wanting. She’s too funny!
