Normally shoots in the dead of winter raise a few red flags for us. 1. It could be FREEZING!!! 2. There is a lack of color and 3. It can sometimes be really windy and miserable outside!!! So when Eimile told me that Coleton was going to be Kansas for the holidays and he was going to be flying back to Washington State right after the New Year, these thoughts did cross my mind.

That time was super exciting; becoming first time parents, reading all the books, watching TLC, and having everything at our fingertips. […]
