Some Favs

I took these a few months ago and L.O.V.E them. I plan on making them huge in my house someday. If I can figure out where to put them! Starting to run low on wall space here...

A Beautiful Evening Out!

My very BEAUTIFUL Stephanie sister is getting married this summer. We are all so excited. JD-her finance-is perfect for her and treats her well. Tonight, we went up the canyons and did some Engagements. Oh how I love how they turned out. I started editing them right away because I'm so excited. That and their wedding is less then 2 months away. Anyways, isn't this gorgeous of the two of them?

We went to this CUTE little Forrest to take some more (I know, Forrests in Utah? I am shocked myself my friends!) and Lincoln was NOT happy that Jory put him down. Look close at that little MAD face!

Steph took a little family snap shoot of us while we were there...

Of course I had to have one of my and Steph. I LOVE this pic of us. We haven't had a picture done of us in a long time.

Jory took the pic of me and Steph while JD held Lincoln. Here are the results of that one....

ROFL!!!!!! Isn't that just hilarious???

We then let the two love birds go cuz he was quite anxious to get to his game. I asked Jory to take a few of me and my cute boy together. I think they turned out too cute! I'm REALLY into my vintage processing right now so we'll all just have to deal with it! ;)

One of the boy and his dad...

Lincoln had quite had it by the time we got back to the car. He was hungry and tired. He kept smacking his cheeky for some reason. Cute...

That ended our beautiful evening. I'm so happy with the two new locations we found tonight. It's amazing how taking 5 mins to take some images of your family can bring a smile to your face. I'm so glad we stopped to do this. Taking too many pics is something I never regret. EVER. I will be posting more from Stephanie's session soon!!

From Today...

Today Lincoln figured out how to take off his diaper. Oh boy... So he was walking around like this for a while...

Oh well, it was hot today. I mean HOT. Besides, that is ONE CUTE BUM right?

Lincoln was intrigued with his Dad's sun glasses. My cousin Ang had bought some for him as a gift while she was down visiting. So cute... We tried to get him to wear them, but oh how hard that was! Super cute though.

At least in this one you can't tell he is fighting us on the hat and glasses!

I am glad this week is over. It has been a BUSY and HARD week. I worked a lot and shot a wedding on Friday. Wednesday we went to a funeral up north some where for one of Jory's uncles. I hate going to funerals. I mean who doesn't right? But it feels like since I married Jory I've been to more funerals then ever. Blah... I hope I don't have to go to one for a long time! On top of all this, Lincoln and I have been sick all week. Jory kept telling us it was just allergies, but turns out my brother and his family have the same thing. So not fun! It's 10:45pm and I'm pretty sure I'm teaching Laurels tomorrow. Sadly, I just remembered this. Oh man, so much for crawling in bed and watching the idiot box!

Next week will be just as super busy with working and lots of shooting. At least there won't be a funeral though. Today all my fabulous sisters went to SLC cuz my little Snuffy sister is getting married and was in search of a wedding dress. Steph is a total tom boy so I figured that she would pick something very simple with no bead work. Oh no, she picked something so girly and with elegant bead work. It is SO GORGEOUS and she looks stunning in it. Just wait for the bridals, I know I can't! I'm so anxious to get out and start shooting! We're shooting Engagements tomorrow and I'm sure she will look so beautiful. Alright, enough rambling! Time to go get my lesson prepared. I sure hope it's not about Eternal Marriage. If I have to teach that topic one more time, I am going to stick a fork in my eye!

Me & Him...

My good friend Emily asked if she could take some pics of Lincoln for her portfolio. Ummm... TOTALLY! She really wanted to do some in the Orchards while they were in full bloom. We set out and Lincoln was quite nervous about it all. I had asked her to take a few of me and him together. I think she did a BEAUTIFUL job. He wouldn't do it by himself hardly at all, so that was a bummer. Thanks Emily-You are amazing!

Back Yard Fun!

This morning we snuggled in bed and watched Curious George. He got this movie for his bday from his cousins. Oh man does he LOVE this movie. Whenever that cute little monkey comes on, he just SMILES and looks at me grinning like it's no ones business! Then he constantly has to watch me to see if I'm watching. He claps his little hands together and giggles. He's starting to dance to the music on the idiot box as well. Way too cute. This is one of my favourite things to do with my boy. Oh how I love to snuggle that boy!

Seriously? More outdoor shots? Of course, that's MY boy! He hates wearing shoes-pulls them off and throws them (which is really sad cuz I bought him the CUTEST shoes ever from Target that he will NOT wear!)Can you tell how happy he is to be outside?

I love this last one of him. Just happy as can be! I know what you are all thinking, get that kid a Tetanus Shot! Ha ha ha ha... already on it!

At Least I Have Him!

Truly... I think I might loose my mind tonight! It has been one of "those" days where NOTHING has gone  right. AT. ALL!! The other night I came home to find my laptop in ruins. COMPLETE RUINS! I took it over to my brothers house to take a look at. Come to find out that my laptop has 7 HUGE viruses. Yuck. How they got there, who knows! So I figured I'd be cooped up in my office the next few days editing there, but now I can't seem to get my Photoshop to open. I am just beyond irritated!

Anyways, Lincoln and I spent some time at my good friend's house today and he was just the happiest boy EVER! He would roll around the (carpeted) floor, run around playing and in between ADD moments he would stop, smile at me and run over and give me a hug. How does life get better then that? It was the only thing that brightened my day. We came home and had lunch outside and he helped me eat my cheeseburger. Yes, you read that right! I did eat a cheeseburger today. It was a beautiful day today though. Since I am still playing catch up, here are some more pics. These were taken several months back when we went to Idaho to do a bunch of shooting. We were at one of Jory's cousins house and while we were waiting for them to do a clothing change, I went to check on the babes. Oh how cute is my little boy! Look at that beautiful chubby face. I couldn't resist taking some shots of my own cute, cute boy.

I LOVE tender candid moments like these...

 That cute gummy smile makes me just giggle.

The Boys Outside

Oh man... Lincoln just LOVES to be outside ALL THE TIME! Last night I went to my friend's book party and Lincoln was cranky the whole time cuz he just wanted to be outside. When I finally took him out, he was so DANG happy! Lincoln especially loves to play with his dad and Jory's dog outside. They love to throw the ball to the dog and watch her catch it. Lincoln thinks it's sooo funny!

Doesn't Lincoln look so stinkin cute in his (Canada) red Columbia jacket? I picked it up at the Columbia outlet in Park City for $12!!

The boys and that damn dog who will probably out live us all-just to spite me. Lincs loves animals though. Don't all boys? Anyways, he always has such a fun time when he's outside and truly is his happiest. It should be an interesting summer for sure! I'm sure when it gets nice (if it ever starts to get nice around here) we'll be outside more then we won't!
