Austin’s one year photos

Oh my, I can’t believe Austin is going to be one in a week!!  Where does time go?  Greg and I are having a DIY year (thanks pinterest, ha!)  Anyways instead of taking Austin  somewhere to get pictures, Greg and I decided that we would attempt to take them ourselves.  This Monday we went up to Baylor’s campus and the Waco Zoo, what better place to get pics?  I get a funny nostalgic feeling at so many places at on Baylor’s campus.  Love the school for so many reasons, but of course most of all because that is where Greg and I met in eleven years ago, at 18 and 19 years old, babies huh! I am eternally grateful that God lead me to Baylor and Greg!

So here are the pictures, I had to take some on the infamous Baylor swings.  I spent many peaceful moments there praying, studying, and spending time with Greg on campus walks.  A simple swing with so many good memories!  So here are the kiddos! We had only planned to get pictures of Austin because I am such a nut sometimes about “perfect” pictures and Ava’s hair was crazy that day, so windy and she of course was running around campus having a great time. End up though that she just looked SO ADORABLE in her new vest that Dee-Dah made for Christmas and she was all giggles because Greg was playing a tickle game with her.  I was so glad I got these joyful smiles on camera, better to remember her as the spunky little girl she is than in a picture studio with perfectly done up hair!

If Austin decides to go to Baylor I think he should include this in his application letter ha!

Biggest smile of the day was for Ava in picture below. She was singing “clap your hands all ye people!”
