Most of you know that I have 2 daughters (Hannah 1, Grace 3) and during the school year I am a stay at home dad with them. Rachel’s last day of teaching for the year was June 11th, so we have been enjoying the extra fun of having mom around now too. Earlier this week...

05.02.2010: Easter Dresses on a Nearly Perfect Spring Day
I have been wanting to get some cute photos of my two girls in their Easter dresses from this year, but the weather has been a little hit or miss for me. This past Sunday, Rachel and I were able to squeeze in a quick shoot down at a local park near our house....
First snow of the year
Three weekends ago, we hearty folks living in Minnesota, had our first snow of the year. I had a couple hours free that morning, so we had a family fun day in the snow. Last year Grace had a hard time moving around in her snow suit, but this year she had no problem. I...
A fun walk with my girls
It was much to nice of a day to stay inside, so the three of us went out for a fun walk in the woods near our house. These walks are more of an adventure for Grace then her normal walks through the neighborhood. She runs all over the place pick up things she finds...
Photo Booth fun at last nights wedding
Rachel and I shot a wedding for Liz and Matt over in the Stillwater, MN area and were stoked to see that they had brought in a photobooth for their guests. Right away we knew we had to hit this up before we left that night. I thought they turned out pretty good.
My Daughter Grace and her new Trike.
It was such an awesome night out, so Grace and I went out to goof around in the street on her bike. I have been going out with her whenever it’s been nice out and teaching her how to move the pedals with her feet. She’s actually getting pretty good at it and...

We are at the hospital !!!!
I got the welcomed wake up nudge from Rachel this morning at 3:20am. . . “Ben, I think you need to call Gerhardt and see if he can come over and watch Grace. I think my water just broke.â€Â  It didn’t me long to get out of bed and into action. Thankfully Gerhardt answered his...
And we wait. . .
Well today is the due date for Rachel to give birth to our second daughter.  This morning I was reflecting back to the days before we had Grace. I remember being in almost surreal state of shock at how much this little child will change our life. Looking back, I hadn’t even scratched the surface at...
