Cowan Clan 2011 ~ Shelby

Today's post is on Shelby Renee'


You would be very hard pressed to find someone with a more caring or giving nature than Shelby. She is loyal to the core as well. Always wanting to be there for you when you need her. She is an amazing woman of God, that I have been blessed to have as my best friend for a long time now.


I'd appreciate your prayers for Shelby as she embarks on a new journey and opportunity God has placed in front of her. She leaves on Wednesday to help a missionary wife we know in Mexico. She will be gone for six weeks, it will be a growing experience for all of us I am SURE! I am so excited for her as she steps out into the plan God has brought about for her. She is perfect for what she is going to do, God has indeed prepared her for such an opportunity as this. She will be sorely missed though...




Shelby: Faithful Steward

Zechariah 4:6 Not by might, nor by power, but by my spirit, saith the Lord of hosts.


Renee': Renewed, Joyful Spirit

Psalm 111:10 The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom: a good understanding have all they that do his commandments: his praise endureth for ever.






Don't worry Shelby, you shall be missed and welcomed home with open arms upon your return. Have a great trip, we love you!

Happy Sunday,
Kristina

Cowan Clan 2011 ~ Victoria

We are up to "meeting" Victoria Lee (age 15)


Victoria is what we call HIGH OTTER! Very fun, full of life, spirit, and extremely playful! She loves practicing piano and flute. She would spend all day playing music if we let her. Victoria is also an animal information guru. She has so many little facts about animals and astronomy all stored away in that brain of hers.








Victoria: Conqueror, Triumphant spirit.

Philippians 4:19 But my God shall supply all my need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus.


Lee: Gracious spirit

Romans 8:16 The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God.


Happy Sunday!

The Gianforte Family

The Gianforte Family, Shelby, and I spent a Saturday morning capturing their family as they walked along paths, sat by water, and played hard! :-) It was a very fun day! Here is a collage with a smattering of the different pictures. Enjoy!



Next post will be "Meeting Victoria"

Inspiration Monday?!~ Tuesday!

Okay, so I finally managed to FAIL to put up an Inspiration on MONDAY! I'm soooo sorry. Perhaps someone really needed it today instead! :-) So, instead of just skipping it totally I've decided to go ahead and post one for today!



Is your little light shinning brightly to glorify God? Do people see God's great light through you? What are you doing with your light?





Hopefully more blog posts later this week!

Cowan Clan 2011 ~ Joanna

Cowan Clan 2011 Post 2~ Joanna Brooke



Meet Joanna age 13, but will be 14 next month. She is the 5th daughter of the Cowan Family and is our little detail oriented girl. We affectionately call her a serious beaver. :-) She is an organzing guru! She is also an amazing little quilter. She made a quilt for our living room and her attention to detail came in very handy for making sure everything lined up PERFECTLY! :-)




Joanna means God is gracious, precious one.


Proverbs 4:7 Wisdom is the principal thing; therfore get wisdom: and with all thy getting get understanding.




Brooke: Peaceful, refreshing spirit


Zechariah 2:10 Sing and rejoice... for, lo, I come, and I will dwell in the midst of thee, saith the Lord.


Next week will be VICTORIA!


Until tomorrow!

Bouma Family- Fall Portraits

I love the vision the Bouma Family came to their shoot with. They wanted pictures that truly captured who they are as a family. As they face an upcoming deployment they wanted to have visual memories to remember. I had a great time on this shoot with them and I hope they did to. Here is a snippet from their shoot.





Thank you Bouma Family for allowing me to do this session with you. It was a joy!

Monday Inspiration From Memorycatcher Photography

Another Monday has come and gone. I think I forgot it was a Monday, because it was a holiday! However, I DID remember this evening so here is the Inspiration with a picture from Howth, Ireland. :-)


Until next time!

Cowan Clan 2011 ~ Leah

My family was amazing and suffered through a TWO HOUR shoot this year! So, I've decided to do a series of posts from my own family shoot. So at least once a week I'm going to try and post more pictures introducing you to different people in my family so you can see where everyone is this year. :-)


First up is Leah Joy, Age 8


Leah has been a special gift from God to our family. She has such a sweet heart and loves others so much. She truly is a Joy to have in our family. She currently LOVES being an aunt, and if she disappears throughout the day you will most likely find her curled up somewhere comfy with a good book. :-)


Leah's verse is found in Psalm 18:23,33 It is God that girdeth me with strength, and maketh my way perfect. He maketh my feet like hinds' feet, and setteth me upon my high places.

We realized we hadn't done father daughter pictures of all of us with Dad since probably around when Dad was deployed to Korea back in 1999 (which was way before Leah was around) So we were way overdue on taking father daughter photos. :-)



Until tomorrow!
