Spooner Gals
Mrs. Spooner (uh huh..."Pam" as she says I can call her now) was my sixth grade teacher, and last year I was lucky to teach with her. She is a beautiful example inside and out, and her stunning girls are following suit. Here are just a few of many gorgeous shots from tonight. Such a happy summer evening!

Remembering Betty
Today we said goodbye to sweet Betty Harris - Betty who cooked her sons and their friends (Nathan included) midnight snacks of steak and potatoes and who never missed celebrating a special occasion with us. These are two moments that I will always remember:
mustering the energy to fix Jake's sleeve
and surrounded by her girls
We love you, Harris family.

Imy, you amaze me.
It's no secret that I love photography as an art form, but more than that, I love photography for the stories it uncovers. This is a woman Nathan and I were honored to meet when we went to Joplin. She has survived two tornadoes (each destroying her home), buried two husbands, and suffered two bouts of cancer.
We made a small dent in her debris; she made a huge impression on our hearts.

The Stories of Our Garden
the bounty...
bean sprouts...
a pop up...
squash jungle...
a visitor...
nearby berries...
i thank You God for most this amazing
day:for the leaping greenly spirits of trees
and a blue true dream of sky; and for everything
which is natural which is infinite which is yes
(i who have died am alive again today,
and this is the sun's birthday; this is the birth
day of life and of love and wings: and of the gay
great happening illimitably earth)
how should tasting touching hearing seeing
breathing any--lifted from the no
of all nothing--human merely being
doubt unimaginable You?
(now the ears of my ears awake and
now the eyes of my eyes are opened)

Luke and Z
We stopped by this itsy bitsy Zeda's party on Sunday. I only took my camera out at the end, but she and Luke had no problem turning on the cute.
It's good to be two!
