If you're allowed to have favorites, I pick Sarah. She was the first of Jeff's cousins that I met, and it was right before our wedding. Jeff asked if his awesome cousin Sarah could help greet guests and hand out programs at the ceremony. I asked if she was a cool girl. His reply? "Yeah, she's kind of the coolest..."
I totally agree.
She's a kind, funny, and sweeter-than-sugar-itself girl from the Midwest with one of those Minnes-oooooh-ta accents that makes you want to talk just like her. And she's gonna have a cuddly, cute, and more-lovable-than-a-teddy-bear little girl in just a few weeks. Before her baby girl, Lydia, comes along, Sarah and her best friend, Molly, came out from their hometown in Minnesota for a little R&R with her west coast family in San Diego, and it was so fun showing them around our city! And of course we couldn't resist taking Sarah out for some portraits in the back fields of Jeff's parents home in Del Sur.
Sarah, if Lydia is half as cute you are, she's gonna break some cutest baby in the world records!
I love these next two. Here's Jeff's...
And here's mine.
Sarah is so gorgeous!
My favorite of the session.
Sarah's best friend and roommate, Molly, came along for pictures, so we grabbed some quality best friend time between the two cutest girls ever!
Molly manages an Anthropologie store in Minneapolis, so she constantly had the cutest outfits! That along with her rockin' fun personality, we became pretty good buds!
While Jeff hung out with Molly, I played in the fields some more with Sarah.
I love these candids of the two of them!
Sarah (and Molly): You rock our world and bless us so much more than you know! We can't wait to meet Lydia when she arrives, so save some cute baby toes for our cameras!
Hugs,
Erin
