The month of September was one crazy month for me. It was all bitter sweet. First, school started. One child in all day and the other in half day. And adjusting to that schedule was a little more difficult for me then I would like to admit. I also had the girls 1st birthday party in September (which I hope I will post in the near future). And I come to realize I don’t like planning parties. I would like to just leave that to my mother-n-law.
The third thing that happened in September that was bitter sweet was that my wonderful Grandmother lost her battle to Alzheimer disease. She lived a good life and had been fighting it for some time. It killed me to think that she had to die such a long and painful death. Painful because I knew she hated that she couldn’t remember things and was losing her mind. It was time for her to go and to be with our Heavenly Father. I know that she is so happy to be able to think clearly and to have her mind back.
Well with having her funeral down here I had a chance to do a family shoot with one of my favorite twin cousins and her sweet family. I love my cousins and it just kills me that we live so far apart. But I was so excited photograph her family. Here are a few of my favorites.
This one is my favorite. But I’m a sucker for family pictures.
Thanks again Mel, Love ya tons!
Since taking a little break from photography and slowly coming back to the business, I always come to the realization that I LOVE taking family pictures! They really bring so much joy to my day. Especially when the family is a lot of fun. And I’m in love with this family! I had an opportunity to meet the mom through a friend of mine and since then have been taking their family pictures along their milestones. They are such a joy to work with! Here are just a few of my favs.
I’m so in love with this picture!
I would have to say that these two pictures are my favorite. There is nothing better then a sister picture and a family laughing together.
Thank you once again Wood Family.
It feels so good to get back to business. And I’m so in love with this photo shoot that I shoot this past weekend.
Just a little sneak peak!
so in love with this one!
to be continued……
So it’s been a crazy busy summer. Love it and hate it. Well hate is a strong wrong word. So lets say it’s not my favorite time right now. However, my boys are loving it! So I guess that’s all that matters….right?
There is so much I need to catch up on, but right now I just want to give my cousin a little sneak peek of a shoot that we did while I was up in Utah. I have been wanting to shoot here for awhile. Excited that I was able to do it with them.
I’m in love with this one.
So excited for you to see the rest!
Today, life as I know it has changed….
I have been so blessed to be married to a man who loves the outdoors as much as I do. Even more blessed with the fact that he is OK with doing the dirty work that involves the outdoors. Landon and I have been meaning to go and take the boys fishing, however life seemed to pass it by. Well after much begging and reminding us the boys got us to take them. Since the boys seem to lack the quality of patience we knew we had to go somewhere that it was guaranteed to catch a fish. The 30 seconds or less that the bait was in the water was perfect for the boys.
I love Shane’s face here….just a happy little dude!
I’m in love with these two photos!!!
They say now they are ready for a real lake and real fishing……
We all go through this
Rather it is daily, weekly, or monthly
We go through a period of time and think about all the things we need
However, today I was reminded by a friend of this
a much needed reminder!
and how it brought such peace to my day
……..so thank you for the reminder
Now I just need to make a board of it and hit it over my head everyday 
Why do little boys have such a desire for Mohawks? They think they are the coolest things in the world……really
Well the week school got out, Grammie decided that it would be cool for the boys to have them. She called it “Grammie’s Mohawk Club”.
And it was done without my consent……
So you could only imagine my reaction……..a shocked look followed by dead silence
But hey, my little WT boys were so excited….so I just rolled with it
If you would have asked me if I was organized when I had just two kids, I would have said “yes”. However, that is not the case now. With four kids, two of them being babies, I have become a MESS!!
I have “To Do Lists” for “To Do Lists”, and a mile long “Honey do List”.
I have a “shopping list”, and a “dinner list”
And a calendar.
Now are they all in place? …………….NO
So when I stabled across these boards I thought “PERFECT” and “CUTE” and “Totally my Style”
So I can take my personal photos and upload them to www.decoboardsunlimited.com and then they make them into to these magnetic boards. Better yet they also make really nice white boards that are framed with any photo of your choice, including your own photos.
I know I’m in need of some organization, so I thought I would share my new little find with you. Hope you find it as neat as I did!!!
Well who knows with this So Cal weather……we may have rain next week like we had last week. But for now, the boys think its summer. So with that comes summer activities.
I think this is what my future days may contain of:
But at least I was able to capture this
