Entertainment Fort Smith

Once upon a time, a sweet lady from our church named Donna Payne gave Aaron a call. Donna has a precious daughter in our youth group, and little did Aaron know at the time, Donna also just happens to be the Senior Editor of Entertainment Fort Smith magazine. Korben and I had actually never met her, although, she felt like she knew us because she was facebook friends with Aaron. She had been looking at pictures of Korben on Aaron's facebook, and thought he would make the perfect "New Year's Baby" for her magazine cover. We were thrilled with her request, although, we never dreamed it would turn out as well as it did. Korben was NOT the best little boy he'd ever been in his life. The day of our photo shoot was the day after I had taken him to the doctor with his ear infection (5 days post ear tube surgery) and also the day after I had been in the ER ALL night long by myself.

Most of the photo shoot, in my memory, Korben acted like this...
























But thankfully, we eventually got this!

























We would have NEVER gotten the picture above if Santa had been anyone other than this familiar face.






























And here is one little out-take with Mommy.























Donna and staff at Entertainment Fort Smith, You have no idea how much you thrilled this Mommy and Daddy by allowing us this opportunity. For the rest of Korben's life, this photo will be a centerpiece every Christmas thanks to YOU. Thank you for your patience with us during a very trying week.
