Maternity Pictures

Jody, myself, and our yellow lab Dixie all loaded up and headed to a cabin in Ivanhoe, VA to stay for the weekend. We were meeting my family there and my sister had happily agreed to take some maternity pictures for me while we were there. It is a beautiful setting with a cute little log cabin and a big pond in the front. This would be the last time we would be able to go because the guy that lets us stay there sold the place :( Once we were there, I told Leah we should go ahead and take a few pictures that night and then do some more the next day. Well it was a good thing that I did. After we took the pictures a big storm hit and knocked the power out and we ended up coming home. We had lost power at home too! So instead of having a relaxing, fun weekend we ended up having a very hot and busy weekend. We had to hook the generator up in order to keep our food from going bad. Since it was over 100 degrees I also spent a lot of time trying to keep the dog cool by keeping her baby pool filled with cool water. Here are a few pictures that were taken by my wonderful sister!!

I really wanted to get some with me and Jody, but hopefully I will be able to before Sawyer is born.

The cabin and pond, the picture doesn't do it justice!
