Tam + Fam: So cute, they rhyme!

My friend Tam is just one of those friends. We can go for months without touching base... and yet, when we get back together, it's as if no time has passed at all, and we pick back up again right where we left off. :) I love that. Tam makes me laugh like, well.... in a way that only she can, so I always look forward to catching up with her. Last time I saw Tam, she and her husband Loren, along with their two kids Evie & Lyla, were living in San Francisco where Loren was finishing his MBA at Berkley. Emir and I caught up with them in Seattle where they literally just finished unpacking their last moving box... yet somehow already seem remarkably settled into their new home overlooking all the splendor of Mt. Rainier.

In honor of their recent 10 year wedding anniversary, Tam & Loren rounded up the girls for a quickie family photo session. :) A few quick faves...

I think this shot is so perfectly telling of their various stages/ages. Evie is whizzing by on the swing in the background, while Lyla just sort of dangles... content enough to hold herself in the swing like a 'big girl.'

These two have an incredible history together. From their undergrad days at BYU to new beginnings at Amazon.com in Seattle... I'm so proud of them both and their inspirational example of commitment and teamwork.

Ca-yuuuute!

Lyla wasn't having any of this shot.... but I still love it. :) Hugs to you all!
