Josiah's Spring Photo Shoot - March 2011

For the sole purpose of not wanting to sound like a "stage mom", I don't often speak of Josiah's modeling either on Facebook or my Blog. The reason I even bring it up is because of these AMAZING photographs he recently had done by a wonderful family friend, Casey Hill. He is crazy talented when it comes to mixing photography and artistry!

And because I know there are those of you that are curious about the modeling thing...Josiah has been modeling since he was 9 months old and has had sporadic jobs here and there. The market for modeling where we live is pretty minimal, especially children, so it's just a fun thing we do and something that has provided a small savings for him. He recently did a photo shoot for a national children's clothing company, Hanna Andersson, and *should* be in their Winter 2011 Catalog. Be on the lookout this fall!!!

Yes, I know....major catchup!

In January the 3 of us joined Grandpa & Nana as well as Great Grandpa & Great Grandma Gobet for a few days on the Oregon Coast.  It was as rainy as it could get and pretty cold so we spent most of our time indoors watching movies and playing games. We were able to catch a few breaks and took that opportunity to get down to the water.

Adventure down to the beach!

 We found a whole crab shell!

 It may have not been swimming weather BUT it was beautiful!!!

Dad thought it would be fun to take off shoes in the freezing cold!!

(Mom didn't fall for this!)

My favorite!

A self portrait with a large camera is much harder than you think!
