If you’ve been following our blog since last spring, you may remember all of the newborn garden shots we created at the studio.  Last week I finally felt it was time to break the garden out again!  I went to the garden shop and picked out some beautiful pink tulips.  We planted them in our garden box out behind the studio and rolled it in carefully.  There was only one problem.  We built walls inside the studio last fall.  Walls with doorways.  Doorways that apparently don’t fit our garden through them.  But what about all of the beautiful tulips???  My heart was set on the picture I had in my mind.  Shaun knew what was coming and got out of the studio.  He couldn’t stand to watch.  Five girls spent an hour wrestling with a rain soaked garden box that must have weighed a ton.  Mud splashed on the floor and all over us.  We tried lifting, pushing, even sawing part of the box off.  There was only one solution.  We had to take the door off the hinges and pry that door frame off.  I was getting this picture!!  And we did!  And it was totally worth it!  With a power sander and a little paint, our door will look like new again.  But that picture will last forever.

And what about newborn baby A?  She was absolutely gorgeous and gladly snuggled into the garden made just for her.  I think she looks like a princess surrounded by all of those flowers!  Enjoy your preview!
