When is the best time to have surprise visits from life-long friends...? Hmmm, ANYTIME! Darlene became a faithful follower of my blog some time ago, so when she traveled to Florida from Atlanta, Ga to visit family and friends, it was the perfect opportunity to capture the crew so she could have her own post!

We grew up in the same local neighborhood, eventually created tons of chaos in high school, and now stay in touch from different states as we build our families strong. Darlene is married to Jason, a faithful soldier in the US Army, and they have three beautiful boys Noah, Lawrence, and Nicholas who were an absolute blast to hang out with and capture.

Darlene: It was wonderful hanging out for the day and catching up while we had time. Thanks for always keeping it real and providing tons of laughter. You have a beautiful family - I am super proud of you and look forward to good times ahead. Lots of love ~
