Thanksgiving ~

I didn't get out our camera while we spent the Thanksgiving morning with my family. (Mom, I need to get the pics I took on your camera PlEaSe). I'll post them soon.

We spend the Thanksgiving evening with Carl's family and had a blast. The close up pics on our slideshow are ones that Peyton took. He loves to take pictures; something he gets from his mommy. 

There are so many things to be grateful for. We have healthy children, a happy marriage, a nice home, transportation, food, clothes, great family, awesome friends, and the wonderful gospel of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints.  We are a very blessed family. 

Wonderful Girls ~

Today the girls were acknowledged at an award ceremony at their school. Alanna for perfect attendance and straight A's and Kasey for perfect attendance. They are both so awesome and I am grateful to be their mom (step-mom). Thank you mom for coming and showing them support ~ we are grateful for all you do!

Love you girls!!!

She was so fun to photograph and definitely not camera shy.

I really enjoy photographing couples. It is fun to see the diverse personalities; some come so willing and wanting pictures ... yet others merely do it for the spouse they love so dear.

If you don't already know. I have a thing for photographing feet, especially those of infants and children. They are so unique and always changing.

I loved photographing this princess. She is so darn cute.

Skymania ~

Tina and I met up and spent the day together. We got Austin's Court of Honor pics taken and then headed off to Sky-mania. This of course after stopping by In N Out. I hadn't ever been, but some of the kids had. It was a blast and worth how expensive it was. We had a lengthy negotiation period of who was going to spend the night where ... Tina ended up with Ashley, Austin and Curtis. I ended up with Kasey, Alanna, Peyton, Haleigh, and Cody. How did that happen?

I was glad it did. When we got home we made chocolate chip cookies, ate a lot of dough, then a lot of cookies; the kids played until it was very late. I am so excited for the kids and love every opportunity we get to give them time with their cousins. I remember the MANY trips we took to Utah and Arizona and treasure the memories we had with our cousins.  I try hard (although it doesn't happen often enough) to get the cousins together.

Love you guys TONS!!!

Today was an amazing day. I want to thank Erin for taking the time to teach me new tricks and techniques. I will cherish these photos forever!

Picture Tag ~

I was tagged by my lil' sister Tara to go to my fourth folder and pick my fourth picture. Being a photographer, I am a little obsessed with my picture files. Each day and each photo shoot has it's very own file. This one happens to be from a photo shoot I did yesterday morning. I have done three in two days ... and I absolutely love it.

He was so fun and full of personality. If all my subjects were this relaxed and fun ... being a photographer would be a piece of cake.
