Well, hello!
In case you forgot, this is the Yap Family blog, yes really. It was starting to get foggy for me too, I was afraid I’d forget how to log in! I know I have so much catching up to do, and I plan to, but I don’t have all the photos together yet (let’s be honest, that’s why you’re here). So I’ll share an ounce of right now and promise, once more, to update you more often. I certainly won’t let months get in between us again!
We’ve been very busy cultivating our photography business. We have become crazy popular but we’re loving every minute of it! The only downside is that it really cuts into our family time on the weekends. Last weekend we had a request for a photo session from a friend. His wife had a bone marrow transplant a few weeks back and because of the immune system stuff and because she’s out of town for treatment, they don’t see her very often. Of course we were excited to help with the Valentine’s photos as a surprise for her but we were feeling guilty about leaving the kids behind for another shoot. I think we had three that weekend and this one was a favor. So we took them! We let them run around the park for a half an hour before the shoot and when my friend and his sons arrived the older kids raced around like crazy people! They had such a blast and although it certainly made shooting so much more difficult I’m glad they could join us this time.
We managed to talk them into a few photos too!
We set up a ladder/scaffolding for a few photos and the kids were under the impression we brought a jungle gym!
Kate’s hair is getting so big and long. She’s still not a fan of having anything to keep it out of her eyes!

The photos of my friend and his kids came out well; the boys were super sweet! If you want to see those you’ll have to check out the photo blog – www.yaporiginals.com
It’s great to “see” you again!

Thanks so much for taking our photos; they were a hit with mommy! Looking forward to getting our crazy kids together again!
