Apple Pie




My grandmother is an amazing baker. There have been plenty of blue ribbons at the local fair. She often doesn't even use a recipe, just going by "feel." Her apple pie is no different.

Chris has declared her pie as the best he's ever had. And since there is no one else that knows how to make it, it was decided that I needed to learn how to carry on her tradition.

This weekend, I learned how to make Grandma Appleby's homemade apple pie. (Of course, the true test will be making it at home, alone!) Grandma has been making, and perfecting, her pie and pie crust for 60 years. There is no recipe and Grandma does not use measuring cups or spoons. When Grandma says, "a smidge," she means a "coffee cup full." It is all done by feel and by memory. I tried to write down the "recipe" as we prepped and baked, but there will probably need to be adjustments.

We will be having a lot of dessert as practice!

Baby Reagan


Amy brought her new baby in for Reagan's first session. She was just one week old! We captured lots of cute little "bits & pieces", and we made some really cute birth announcements.

Jocelyn's session




Jocelyn was a fun almost-three year old. She had so much personality that showed through in her session. Here are a few of our favorites.
