From New York to the Midwest

About three years ago, my dear friend, Lidia, made a big decision for her family.  She and her husband moved from New York to Illinois in search of a simpler life for their sweet twins, who at the time were a year old.  Though she and I have been able to see each other and work together several times over those three years, it was never in her new home, so I finally set aside a long weekend to head up there to visit them... and their little new addition!  They added another boy to their family, Christian Henry, a month ago!  We didn't do a traditional family photo session, rather, we took photos here and there throughout the weekend-- at home, at a farm, in a cornfield.  Between one cloudy day that made the skies so interesting and another perfect fall day with that golden light every photographer loves to play with, we snapped quite a few photos.  Here are a handful of them! 

I just love when babies make this "whatchu talkin bout" face!  (above)
