Strabbing : Family

At Kollen's park we had the privaledge to get to know the Strabbing family. They have 4 boys, and we did their photoshoot in between playground time :) 10 minutes of play time in between a couple family photos and everything went great! Here is their adorable family! Their youngest is Willem, at 3 months old!

My absolute favorite shot of the day... Sam was the best helper for baby Willem! Such a cute, sensitive young boy. :)

Celebration of Life : Julia Deters

January 19, 1919 - May 17, 2010
My Great Grandma went to dance on the streets of Heaven during her sleep Sunday evening.
Our temporary seperation will be remembered this week as we work on funeral plans. Please keep my family in your prayers through this time. We thank the Lord for the long life she had here on earth :) As I heard Don Piper say, 'There is a 100% Death rate here on earth, none of us are getting out of this alive' :) He was reminding us to check our own lives out and make sure that we all have recieved Christ's salvation, and are assured a home everlasting in Heaven.

Tulip Time 2010

Our small town celebrated their Dutch Heritage this past week with the 81st Tulip Time Festival. 16 miles of Tulips line the streets of Holland, and everyone pulls out their wooden shoes and Dutch Costumes. My mom was kind enough to make my boys the same costume that I wore for Dutch Dance back when I was a dancer -Pre-children days :) Check out the Festival as documented by me, a mom. :)

Yummy dutch food! lol.... just kidding. Fatty foods are just one of the highlights of the festival.

Yes, the wooden shoes do break.

The street scrubbers clean and prepare the streets for the parades and events.

Prom!

David asked me to prom, ....yes.... PROM! JQ99 was throwing an event called 'second chance prom', and we decided to try it. Ashley did my hair and makeup in like 20 minutes flat! Elyse was doing my toes and fingers at the same time. Kelly watched my little guys to keep me relaxed. It was great!!!! I can't express how much I appreciated the pampering for the first time :) Thanks guys!!!!! We had a photo shoot right before the prom, so I went to the photo shoot with the hair and makeup, then went home to grab a bite to eat, (which Ashley and Steve provide) and get into the dress and shoes, (which Elyse provided) We didn't take a camera to the prom, because unlike the rest of the world, we don't own anything small enough to take without looking like the paparazzi. We wanted to just enjoy the night together without the boys. It was great. My husband was soooooo sweet! He surprized me by getting me flowers and he rented a tux! I had no idea! He wanted to get my grandpa's mercedes or jag, but we didn't really plan it all out that well for timing with the photo shoot before, so he surprized me by taking our little Grand Prix through a car wash! LOL Funny how that dresses up that ole car in a special way. :) Thanks to everyone for everything! Here are a couple picts that I promised. :)
