via emailMy family and I took a trip back to where I grew up over Columbus Day weekend. It is beautiful out there any time of year (well, except maybe from January-March…), and we were coming up on the end of peak foliage season, so I wanted to go out for a few days to relax and enjoy it.
We visited the ‘rents, and I was lucky enough to meet up with my longest-known friend (almost wrote “oldest”, but realized how that sounded!), and her amazing family, to get some updated family photos. Mom and I have known each other since we were a few months old, and I still remember the days of sleeping over her house (ask her about how I’d wake up super early to read all of her Babysitter’s Club books, haha), and her teaching me how to curl my bangs.
And now we’re both moms with families of our own! Although, with her adorable twin boys, I have a feeling it’s going to be more about sports and trucks than Babysitter’s Club and hair in her house. 
I’ve been photographing these little guys since they were months old, and now they’re TWO. Time flies!! They are the most energetic boys, they loved running all over their yard, having tickle fights with mom, being tossed in the air by dad, and dancing to “ashes, ashes, they all fall DOWN!”.
We also ran up to the nearby apple orchard for some quick photos at the end, make sure you scroll to the bottom of this post to see the fabulous Berkshire County foliage!
(This one I would call “emotionally in focus”–I totally love this shot.)
(Being tickled by mom, they were cracking up!)
(I wouldn’t normally include two similar shots, but I just couldn’t pick between the two of dad tossing E in the air!)
And finally, those of you who are fans on Facebook have already seen this, it is my fave so far. I am in love with this shot!
OD Family, thank you guys so much for such a fun day! We loved catching up with you, hopefully we will see you again over the holidays. xoxo
[...] was home again a few weekends ago, and loved seeing everyone again. I met up with this family again to do some photos for them, including some of their new baby brother! See? ANOTHER BOY! Below [...]
