"A great photograph is a full expression of what one feels about what is being photographed in the deepest sense, and is, thereby, a true expression of what one feels about life in its entirety." ~Ansel Adams

Blackburn/Coogen/Sellers Families!

There have been many happenings in Blackburn/Coogen/Sellers Families over the last few weeks! Both Lyla and Ryan turn 1! I cannot believe a year has gone by already! They are growing so fast and moving around like crazy and getting into everything! Here are some highlights of these sweet babies...


Here are all the Blackburn women with Ryan and Lyla.


Ryan is exhausted after his 1st birthday party and sharing a sweet moment with his Grandfather.



Does it get any cuter than this??




This photo is for Michael because he will be seeing those eyes when she is 16 and he doesn't let her do what she wants! :)



Seriously, Ryan is the happiest baby I have ever seen. I can't help but smile everytime I see this photo.



This is just trouble right here.... she can't even talk yet!




This is Ryan's cousin on Jeff's side. She is absolutely darling.




Lyla sharing a moment with her dad!

Costa Rica!



I am back and recovered from Costa Rica. It was an awesome trip! We did a lot -- kayaking, rafting, horseback riding, ziplining through the rainforest, and snorkling. We were in the towns of La Fortuna, Monteverde, and Samara. Here are a few of my favorite photos from the trip:


How much do you want to go sit on that bench and enjoy the beach??


We went to a restaurant and the owner's dog had just give birth to 4 puppies! I couldn't get enough... they were SO cute and little!
