Happy Birthday Allie!

This week I spent an hour with Allie and her family for Allie's one year photos.  I met mom, Kristin, last year when she started bringing Allie to the same daycare provider I was using.  Oh, Allie was so cute with her big blue eyes!  She still is adorable and looks more like her momma every day.  Originally we were going to do the pictures at Allerton but then I got strep, and then we had bad weather so we ended up at my favorite Champaign location: the U of I arboretum.  I will just let everyone know that right now the arboretum is beautiful.  All of the flowers in the large center garden are in full bloom; I felt like I was on color-overload!  Allie, like any toddler, loooved the woodchips, dirt, and rocks.  Who can blame her?  It's always fun to get messy!!  I hope I managed to catch this little girl's sparkling personality and unending curiosity.

 

Beautiful Family!!
