Coming to Indianapolis!

I’m so excited! In a few weeks, I’m heading back to the Midwest for a week of family fun. First, I’ll be up in Wisconsin for a long weekend with the whole Guenin clan – aunts, uncles, grandparents, cousins, cousins kids, niece, nephews, everybody! It’s bound to be a blast! We’ve done this every year since 2001, and it’s always a good time. My immediate family didn’t get to go last year because my brother-in-law was in the hospital with pneumonia. So, we’re all excited to be there this time :)

Here’s a shot from our very first Guenin Family Vacation, back in 2001 – this time in Michigan. My how our little clan has grown! (Don’t you just love the rainbow of matching custom t-shirts?!)


After a long weekend in Wisconsin, we’ll be driving back down to Indianapolis for a few days back home. I’m hoping to see some old friends, enjoy some more time with the fam, and hang out on my parents’ boat & SeaDoo! Plus, I’m planning on shooting at least one portrait session while I’m in town. I figure, as long as I’m shooting one, I might as well see if anyone else is interested….




If you’d like to schedule a portrait session, let me know!! Engagement, post-wedding, pregnancy, baby, kids, or family sessions are available starting at $300. Drop me a line if you’d like to set up a time for the week of July 14th…

Living the hard life

Well, don’t feel too bad for me… I’m living the hard life down in Ft. Myers, Florida this week. I’m on vacation with my parents & sister (and her adorable family). It’s hard spending this much time on the beach and by the pool, but I’m doing my best :)

I’ve got lots to share when I got back to Boston! Pictures from my week in Chicago, pictures from vacation, and a bunch of engagement sessions coming up in the next few weeks. So, stay tuned! And try not to be jealous ;)

Life

Wow! I have been so delinquent! Life has just been CRAZY and I just haven’t been able to keep up! But no worries, I’m back :)

The good thing is that I got to spend a little time on vacation with my parents, sister & her family. I flew home to Indianapolis and spent about a little over a week hanging out with the fam. We were supposed to go with whole Guenin family up to Wisconsin for a big family weekend, but we didn’t get to go. My poor brother-in-law, Michael (pastor of an amazing ministry I’m involved in, Genesis) was incredibly sick even before he flew to Indy. And when he got to Indy, it just got worse. He ended up in the hospital with viral pneumonia and all sorts of pain radiating from his lung. So, we all decided to stay behind and take care of the kids while my sister stayed with Michael at the hospital. The poor guy spent his entire vacation in bed, in pain. Please pray for him and Kyla as he’s still experiencing a LOT of pain and now all 3 of the kids are sick too!

In spite of all the drama, we still managed to have LOTS of FUN! My oldest nephew, Tristan, turned 4 years old while we were home, so there was plenty of celebrating!

Here’s Tristan blowing out the breakfast candles (not in cake so much as in a donut, but he loved it :)

One of Tristan’s favorite parts of the trip was his first (of many) ride on the Sea-Doo with Papa Pat!

We also spent a lot of time taking the boat to “the swimmin’ hole”

This is Mimi (my mom) with baby Caeden, looking oh so comfy in his life vest…


Here’s my niece, Reilly Nichole, playing on the beach. She’s so fun!

And here are a couple pics courtesy of my sister, Kyla. The first is baby Caeden looking as cute as possible. And the 2nd is me and Caeden playing peek-a-boo on the boat :)

Mom & Dad also took us to this great new water park by their house. I’m so bummed it wasn’t around when I was a kid! It was a blast! Tristan LOVED it!!!!


Just a couple more cute pics of my sweet little babies…




And here’s my sister w/ Caeden :)


So, it wasn’t the best vacation we’ve ever had – that would require my brother-in-law being able to stay out of bed for more than an hour :) And, it wasn’t the most restful or relaxing, but it definitely was FUN!!!! Thanks Mom & Dad for a great trip!! I Love You!!!!
