\"\"<\/p>\n

My nephew Graham is a die hard cowboy.?? His primary interest in life is all things western.???? When I took this picture of him in October, I knew I just hit the jack pot.?? It was love at first sight for both Aunt Sissy and his mommy.?? I have been planning on painting it for awhile and last week finally got the opportunity.<\/p>\n

This picture is a composite of the following two.?? I used another free stock image for the background.<\/p>\n

And some big news for Graham.?? He is going to be a big brother again.?? His little SISTER – Cozette Grace – AKA COZY GRACE – should make her arrival somewhere around the middle of June.?? And yes, I know that family and friends are well aware of this but it’s the first I mentioned it on the blog. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

After Braxytn was born, Brooke promised that she would name the next girl Cozette.?? I love it and Jim would never let me (we can’t abandon the “T” thing now you know).?? Brings back warm memories.?? When Jim and I first started dating, his mom bought us tickets to go see La Miserable.?? It was awesome!?? What a fun romantic date that was.?? One of the leading characters in La Mis is Cozette – thus Brooke’s inspiration.???? I think Cozy Grace is cute cute cute and I am already getting anxious to photograph her (and her pregnant mommy).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
