summer nights and bug bites

Max was out of town for the week at summer camp...which lead to my brilliant idea of doing an evening photo shoot with all 3 girls.  Brad was on to my plan as soon as he walked in the door from work and saw the girls.  (The dresses gave it away.)  My bribe for helping...PIZZA RANCH.

After eating my weight in chicken and mashed potatoes...we were off to Seminole Valley Park in Cedar Rapids for some evening photos.  Who knew the feast would be at Seminole Valley?!?!

Our photo session lasted about 15 minutes because the mosquitoes were FEASTING on us!  The girls did amazing with all the bug and bits.

So...lesson learned.  From now on bug spray joins the list of essential photo session items.
