boy how time flies! john’s now married like most of my friends and not too long ago he and his wife had their first child, nathan. they currently live in maine, but we’re doing our best to get them to move back closer to home. :) but they were in town this week so we had a chance to do a little family photo shoot for them this week.

what a cutey!

here are a couple shots when aaron was just a few months old back in june 2006:
