One Saturday morning a few weeks ago, I woke up with Aiden and was nursing him when my husband came to the bedroom and said, “Uh, hun? There are some people at the door saying they’re here to interview and take pictures?” “Oh, crap!” was my reply as I remembered Blickenstaff was coming to interview and take photographs of our family to be featured on their website. We had it scheduled a few weeks in advance for them to come to take photos and interview our family but I totally forgot about it! Mom brain is a real thing, people! I skipped and hopped over my closet and the bathroom and tried to get ready as fast as I can while Jay got ready too and made sure the kids looked presentable. Me on the other hand, I hadn’t showered in 3 days, my hair was so greasy and matted, I had just woken up not long before, I was not camera ready to say the least! I quickly got dressed and tried to look decent(I couldn’t find my make up bag but I found a really old eyeliner and lipstick on the back of the bathroom drawer, so that had to do). We got ready in less than 7 minutes. It was our family record.
These are the pictures from that Saturday morning.
Photographs by Aria Photography.
My favorite part of the interview was when the interviewer asked my 6 year old daughter, “So do you have any funny stories that happened recently?” and my daughter replied, “When my daddy dressed like a girl in my mommy’s dress and Rapunzel wig and acted like a girl.” To read the story behind that and for the full interview, click here.
We love Blickenstaff’s(possibly the coolest toy/candy store ever) and I think it’s awesome they’re emphasizing on the importance of family traditions and values. Thanks for having us Blickenstaff’s!
Wauw. The photographs turned out to be really nice. And you look great! They say the last minute outfits are the best.

I would never have guessed you were so un-put-together by these photos. They are delightful and so expressive. Just lovely.
What a fun interview and great family pics! You have the cutest little family. Also, did your husband live in Laie ever? I knew Kat Tyau when I was younger–same family?
