You guys remember how Ty won the Bump Photo Contest right? Well, we won a trip to Jamaica, a photo shoot to be featured in The Bump Magazine and a Susan Brown gift basket.

Unfortunately, the best thing was the gift basket. Don’t get me wrong….I LOVED the images from our session but read on . . . . .

First, the company we were put in contact with for the trip has been unresponsive at best. When we would actually get a response, they wouldn’t actually answer any of our questions.

so many things i want to remember….ok, a few I don’t want to remember like Teagan cutting his first tooth, everyone being really sick, ear infections…..but I digress…
