David Kenneth

I've known this gorgeous momma for a long time (the picture below was from 2006).

We played soccer together in undergrad at Seton Hill University. [Legit, Elaine is hands-down one of the best female soccer players I have ever encountered. She's no joke!] I actually gave her and her family her first tour of SHU's campus... I'll never forget the pep talk from our coach before the tour... "Don't screw this up, Whitey. We need her!" I'm glad it all worked out! HA!

{{{Now, flash forward over a decade... }}}}

Elaine and her husband, David (another soccer dynamo), recently welcomed the most precious, future soccer star (watch out Landon Donovan!) into their family and when Elaine reached out to me to take newborn photographs for her, I was over the moon!

Thank you for the opportunity, Elaine and David! It was so nice to catch up. Let's plan on cruising through Mingo together some time soon! ... And maybe we can stop to get some 'ice pops' after! ;)

Congratulations!

xoxo
