The Lamonte Family

This fall, Aaron and I had the chance to take a mini roadtrip to visit our sweet friends who recently moved to Tyler, Texas. The Lamontes are not only amazing because they set me up with my super handsome husband but for so many other reasons… They are hilarious, hospitable, love, encouraging, thrifty, and they might actually love Friends as much as we do. Did I mention they set us up? Yeah… Super thankful for these people! On our way back to Fayetteville after our quick visit, Aaron and I immediately agreed that we felt like we had just attended the most fun and chill marriage conference of all time. Danny and Lynne have the kind of marriage that we pray we’ll also have everyday, and it was so encouraging and challenging to observe them doing life together over the weekend. Not only that, but they have three beautiful children that are SO respectful, obedient, and a blast to be around. Basically, Aaron and I want to be just like them when we grow up. :)

The first session I did with the Lamontes was in August of 2011 (see it here), and it is so crazy to see how the kiddos have grown so much in that short amount of time! All of these pictures were taken at their house in Tyler… If I lived there, there’s a strong chance I would never be able to find a reason to go anywhere else for sessions. :) Here are my favorites!

So much sass going on between these two…

Here comes my obligatory comment about how married people should never stop getting pictures taken…
Checkmark for Danny & Lynne!

Ya’ll are just precious. :)

Oh, you know, just the world’s most perfect oak tree on the side of their house. I kinda love Texas because of this.

Abby is now 5 going on 18. :)

This picture makes me a little sad because I cannot believe how fast this sweet guy has grown up! He is definitely not baby Noah anymore.

And Maddie is quite the personality these days. :)

Danny & Lynne… Well done.

Thanks for being so wonderful Lamontes… The Crawfords love ya’ll! :)

Happy Tuesday!
