We had family portraits taken a few months ago when the mustard was in bloom on a whim by a friend!
Do you know what the best thing about 'on a whim' means with portrait taking....
no agonizing over what everyone should wear!
This is exactly what we had on when our friends came over for dinner that night and we decided to try to grab a few pictures of the family!
Kaia: Ruffled Tank J.Crew, Cardigan Hollister, Jeans Hollister
Dave: Spina Bifida Awareness T-shirt and Jeans. He grabbed his American Eagle Flannel for the pic!
Me: Pleated Blue Top and Jeggings Nordstrom, Jacket grabbed off of photographer! Boots Nine West outlet.

I love the way the pictures turned out without all the worry of family portraits!
I'm linking up with The Pleated Poppy today for What I Wore Wednesday!
I'm also guest posting today over at Kristen Duke photography.
She's running a series on Decorating with Portraits all month and already has some amazing ideas!
Wait until you see what I did with one of our 'artistic' shot portraits above my mantel.
Squeal....I'm so excited!
I'll give you a sneak peek of the before picture.....
