Pfeiffer Family l Indiana Family Photographer

Many of you might know that I have been divorced, and the crazy story that is my life. Others not so much, so let me fill you in on a part of my life that I am most proud of(yes I said most proud of). In the below picture two girls might look familiar:)I am not the greatest with dates so I go off of how old my children are, so seeing that Gabi is 15, Andy and I met (forgive me if I get this wrong ) 16 years ago. We had two wonderful daughters, Gabi and Emily and were married 7 years. It was not an easy divorce and there were ups and downs but one thing was for sure, our daughters came first. I always said if this marriage ended in a divorce we would have to be different then anyone elses divorce and figure out a way to get along so we both could be in their lives. We have done that and some:)
You see, I love Andy more like a sister loves a brother I was just never IN LOVE with Andy. He never did anything that would have made me mad at him in anyway so why not just get along and raise these girls and be one big happy family. SO that is what we are… one big happy crazy family. And to crazy it up some more the beautiful women with Andy is his first wife Robin… yes you are reading it right, his first wife and with them is her beautiful daughter Marissa. So are we crazy?? Maybe to others, but to us, this is our family this is my family:)And I am proud that my daughters have seen that a divorce does not have to be ugly and bad, why? It was not there fault this was between me and there dad. Who are the others in the picture? Well they are the rest of the Pfeiffer’s I was once part of their family and in my heart they will always be apart of mine. I love that I can still be around them and am proud to have captured this time in their life. So here is a look at my “G” and “E” in GEM and the rest of the family and now you can see where the blond hair comes from… LOL BUT I still think Gabi looks like Andy but with my color in hair and stuff and Emily looks like me with Andy’s color:)ENJOY!!
