Our second annual Christmas photoshoot at Drysdale’s Tree Farm was so much fun! The sun was shining, and there were many laughs to be had.
Since our extended family photos haven’t been updated in five years, we added my parents, my sister and her fiancé. Watching Madilynn grow so quickly, seeing my parents thrive as grandparents, and celebrating the engagement of my sister have been important parts of our year, so this family update was extra special!
Huge shoutout to Magna Arnott Photography for these beautiful photos! Invest in a good photographer, friends. You won’t regret it.

When we have each other, we have everything.
We may not be able to gather together like we usually do this Christmas, but I know that there is still so much joy to be felt this season. Wishing you all a very merry Christmas, and extra blessings in the new year!
Love,
The Bishops, the Apperleys, and the soon-to-be van Schepens
