One thing that is such a blessing is watching some of my best friends start families. It brings so much joy and excitement for what is to come. 

This past weekend while we were out in Iowa, I was able to see my cousin Courtney who has always been one of my best friends. We had texted earlier in the Month because I wanted to visit her, but with our busy schedules I wasn’t sure I would see her with that cute baby bump. However, since we were all out there for my grandpa’s funeral we were able to spend time together. Oh it was so good to spend time with her. Courtney has such a sweet heart for the Lord and lights up any place she walks into. She is such an encouragement to me. It was so nice catching up during the short time we had together. Unfortunately, her hubby wasn’t able to be at the funeral because they were moving this weekend. But I still asked her if we could sneak outside in the evening to capture her glow and that cute baby bump. It might have been a little chilly, but with the gorgeous light it was so worth it. We snuck out for about 15 minutes and captured these. We just walked in the backyard and side street. Who knew you could get such good light in such a simple place. 

Courtney thank you so much for letting me take these of you! You are one beautiful momma to be! I can’t wait to meet that little girl in just a few weeks. Here are some of my favorites from out short time together.
