Bria Dressed in White

 On Saturday, April 30th, this little gal was supposed to get baptized. But it was three days after the tragic day of tornadoes that hit the Southeast. Our entire county and a couple of others around us were left without power for about five days, so we canceled and will reschedule at a later time.

As for now, here is our beautiful little girl in her white dress. The same one that her sister wore for her baptism, that I made from extra material left over from my wedding dress. Its amazing to see that it fits her just as perfect as it did her older sister.

Bria was very upset that the storms caused her baptism to be postponed. She frequently let us know that this was the worst thing that has EVER happened to her. I am so grateful that being baptized is so important to her and reminded her that we can always do it another day and we should be grateful we didn't really witness the worst day in our lives. We have been very blessed.

Fingernails with chipped polish, a princess dress, vintage barrettes and cute little toes...these are some of my favorite things.

Curiosity...what dreams lie beyond the keyhole?

My good friend, Shari came along for the ride and practiced more of her photo skills and took a candid mother and daughter pic. Bria is such a little mama's girl and I love it! :)

As soon as I saw this little Mexican joint in our Madison downtown, I knew I had to get some pics here and of course NO photo session with one of my kids would be complete without some silliness, especially with this little one. :)

This happens to be one of my favorites because she is smiling. This is one that Shari took as well as the next two.

I'm so sorry that Bria's special day had to be rescheduled but so thankful that your sweet family is okay. Let us know when it is rescheduled for and we will try and be there - give that sweetie a squeeze for me - she is such a special young lady!

Just use this as a teaching lesson. Remind Bria that there is ALWAYS going to be opposition in life and things that will try to keep her away from doing what is right. Love you guys and the pictures are great!

She is so darling. Her baptism will surely stand out so much more in her memory because of the wait. Great job on this post. Thank you for giving me a few pointers. Can't wait to go out again.

Sharon, she is beautiful in this pretty white dress. You and Shari are talented photographers.

I have been so worried about our Madison friends and old neighborhood. Thank you for sharing a few pics of the aftermath. Thinking of you!

She looks so striking with her dark hair against her white dress. Gorgeous!
