Janna & Miles

Blake’s niece and nephew, Janna and Miles, are possibly the cutest kids on the planet (up there with my niece and nephews, of course). A few weeks ago, Blake and I were able to vacation with his family for a long weekend in Basye, VA, where Blake’s parents have a lovely vacation home. While there, we played lots of Candyland and hide and seek, swam and paddle boated at the lake, strolled through the woods to a gorgeous overlook, and of course, I took lots and lots of photos.

I have to start this post with my favorite pictures of the vacation – ones of Janna posing and making faces for the camera. Apparently she’s been working on these faces for “the next time she saw Aunt Tracy”, and she busted out with these moves without being prompted. Each shutter click led to another facial expression. It was hysterical! How could you not fall in love with this adorable kid!?
