You know you've hit the jackpot when your neighbors are more than friends, and the thought of either of you moving just wouldn't be right. We've moved around (....a LOT), and we've never been so fortunate to have neighbors like Mark and Dawn. Our friendship began the first morning we were in our (empty) house. We awoke (from our air mattress) to the sound of a humming outside. We peered out the window to see a man snow plowing our driveway. After coming from Maryland where we never saw the family who lived in the townhouse next door, we were amazed (and grateful!). This was the beginning of our friendship with our next door neighbors-- a little give, a little take and always a smile with over-the-fence conversation. We are so lucky to have this wonderful couple in our lives. We hope they know how fortunate we feel to have created our home next to theirs, and how much we enjoy the way our lives have intertwined in the (almost) four years we have lived here in Colorado. I was honored when Dawn asked me to photograph their family over the Thanksgiving holiday. We enjoyed a fun afternoon with smiles and laughs as I did my best to capture the spirit of this wonderful family. Thank you, Maurers, for the role you play in our lives and for inviting me to photograph your family. You're beautiful-- inside and out!
