A few weeks ago JD got to leave behind the chilly weather of late-winter Colorado for the warm, sunny beaches of the Dominican Republic. Lucky dog! He and Joe met up with David & Connie in Florida then flew off to Punta Cana for a family wedding.

The groom was JD's cousin, Brent. Last fall he and Erin called up JD to see if he'd be their wedding photographer. What a gig! I considered going as well, but in the end decided it was best for me to stay home with the kiddos. I know, I know...you're wondering if I was thinking clearly on that one. I wondered that too. But sometimes you just gotta do what you gotta do, right?

I snagged a few of the photos that were sent the newlyweds for their sneak peek. They look awesome! Beware though ~ these pics will make you want to pull out your swimsuit and grab a beach towel. My toes now have an intense desire to be buried in sand. Like now. Right this very minute. Come summer, come!
