McMurtrey Family Photos {Celebration, FL}

We just got back from the best week in Orlando with Jordan's whole family! They all live in Utah, so we don't get to see them nearly enough. We had the best time making memories and hanging out for a week in Florida with everyone--just so much fun!! 

We had some family photos taken in Celebration, and I love them so much. Such a perfect way to remember us all together making memories. We will cherish these forever!

The whole McMurtrey family is getting harder and harder to squeeze into one photo! Grandma & Grandpa Mac, four kids, three spouses, and nine grandkids + two on the way! 

 

^love these five SO much!!^

^dad + mom^

^How are three of the kids almost taller than me?^

The kids absolutely LOVED playing with their cousins on this trip! They swam together, made up plays, read stories, played games, and just had the best time. It was so fun to watch.

I wish we got to see them more!! They are all just the cutest.

^Boston, Camden, Holland, Brighton, Monroe, Bo, Stockton, Tatum, & Dansby^

^Monroe & Bo! They're only 2 months apart, and they were besties on this trip^

You should have seen us trying to coordinate everyone looking and smiling at the same time for these big group shots haha. It was pretty hilarious!!

I always love seeing Jordan and his siblings interact. They are all so fun, and when they get together they're always joking and laughing and having the best time. I lucked out when I married into their family!!

^my fave^

^my cute in-laws^

I love that our photographer got individual shots of all of the siblings & their families. The cutest!!

^Beautiful Talyn!!^

^Trey, Jennee, & cute Dansby^

^Kadan & Linds and their three super cute kiddos!^

^Grandma & Grandpa Mac & all of their grandbabies^

^this pic kills me. Her face!! Hahaha she was so over it^

I'm so glad we were able to go on this trip, and to get these photos!! Such priceless memories. And I'm just so grateful that I married into such a wonderful family. I truly couldn't have asked for better! 

Plus I got an incredible husband and some super cute kiddos out of the deal--I'm the luckiest. 

Thank you so much for doing these photos for us, Sam!! You're amazing!!

Easter photos, 2025.

 

I just realized I never got around to posting the photos we took on Easter this year, so better late than never! We had a beautiful Easter season as a family, focusing on the resurrection of the Savior. The springtime is always just so joyful and beautiful! 

Also, the kids were looking so old for these Easter portraits we took. I can't believe how fast they're growing up!!

I am so grateful for each of them.

^love this little bean!^

^this one kills me^

^He is my favorite!^

^Holland is the sweetest little soul^

We usually go to the arboretum near our home to take our Easter photos, because the flowers are in bloom and its just so beautiful!! We love it. 

I always love taking individual photos of the kids on Easter because they're all dressed up and looking so cute, and its so fun to see how much they grow from year to year!! 

First up, Monroe Skye. 5 years old and the sweetest little princess in the world!!

Next, Mr. Brighton James. 8 years old and just the most precious boy. (He now has braces, and looks so different! Its wild how much kids can change in even just a few months.)

Now for Holland Beck! Almost 10 when these photos were taken, and just the kindest-hearted boy.

Next up, Camden Race! Almost 12 when these photos were taken, and the smartest, wittiest boy ever!

And lastly, Boston Emery! 13.5 when these photos were taken, and the most infectious personality around.

So, so grateful for this sweet family of mine!! What a beautiful Easter. 

^McMurtrey family, Easter 2025^

We ended Easter with a giant coconut raspberry cake, which would have tasted better if I hadn't accidentally doubled the amount of butter. Whoops! Haha. But we still ate it.

15 years together (a San Juan photoshoot!)

In June, Jordan and I hit fifteen years of marriage! I can't believe how fast that time has flown by. It feels like a blink, but it also feels like we've been together forever. 

I can't really remember a time without Jord, and I really, really like it that way. 

He is everything. And even in the busy, chaotic crazy stage of life we are in right now, there's no one else I'd rather have by my side! I thank my lucky stars every day that I ended up with him.

And I'm so grateful that we were able to sneak away for a quick photoshoot while we were in Puerto Rico last month. Ailea did such an amazing job capturing these for us in beautiful Old San Juan!

I love you, Jord! 

I feel so lucky to be yours. Here's to fifteen more years of marriage (and more)!!
