Idaho...Part 1.... Apricot picking.. another session

We have been having so much fun here in IDAHO! The kids love seeing all of their cousins, grandparents, Aunts and Uncles. We have been packing the days with fun from day one! The second day we were here the kids and I climbed the apricot trees and picked apricots to dry. They thought it was soooo much fun! I climbed to the highest part and threw apricots down into the kids shirts! Oh my mouth is watering thinking of that sweet juicy taste of fresh apricots.





Plus here is another uploaded session from Idaho...sorry so many at once...I just want to get caught up...click here for more!

Finally Home

We are finally home. It feels so good to be at home and back on our schedule. I have lots to post about and lots to get done, so check back constantly for TONS of updates!

We really wanted to see so many of our friends and family while we were in IF, but due to my sisters baby and things going on there, it just wasn't possible. So we apologize for those we wanted to see so badly! We know you will understand and hope to see you next time!

Also thank you to all those who booked a session with me in IF. I can't believe I did eight different appointments and still can't figure out how I got them all done! Here are two more sessions to check on my Photography blog by clicking here. Hopefully tomorrow I will have more up from our trip!!

Photography preview

Here is another small preview of more photos on my photography blog. I have kept busy in Idaho with lots of fun sessions. I will have two more families to post soon, so check back. To visit my photography blog click here!





Also to hear updates on my sweet niece Finley, check out Hanna's blog. It was easier to keep updates going on hers so more people could see! Thanks to all those who have called and offered support. She is so touched by the outpouring of love and concern!

Power of Prayer

I believe strongly in the power of prayer! I believe it can make the impossible seem possible. I believe it can comfort an aching heart and heal all! I tell you this because my sweet little niece Finley was flown to Primary children's hospital today. I know many of you who read my blog know Hanna and her family! I know she and her family and new baby Finley can use all of our prayers!

Please remember them in your prayers. We are all hoping for the best and are optimistic that baby Finely will be OK. We love her so much already!!

Girls Night, Camera, and Random things!

I had the chance this last Tuesday to have a GIRLS NIGHT! My friends and I drove to St. George to go to dinner and then go to the temple! It was so NICE! I really have been needing a break and it was such a perfect one! Plus our friends the Cosson's moved to St. George and I would never miss an opportunity to meet up with Lindsey! She is sooooo missed here!!
( I LOVE these girls! What would I do without great friends? Probably be homesick a lot!!)

(I loved how the rooms were all dimly lit up from the outside! It is so beautiful at night!)


Also, I finally got my NEW camera!!!! I let it sit in the box for a day before I even dared take it out! HA! (I know, I am so weird) I have been going back and forth about the Rebel XTI and Rebel XT version. And finally decided on the XT after a great conversation with my friend Jess! She really knows her stuff and made me feel great about my decision! It is so AWESOME!!! Beau surprised me with a really nice leather camera bag and a new compact flash card to go with it! I am going to to save my photography money and quickly buy an even bigger lens soon!


On the 24th, the kids and I watched the parade and by far my favorite was the Polynesian float! They were so awesome! Look at these guys go with their dance....



We are so excited to see family soon and finally meet our new nieces, Bella and Finley. And also our new nephew Dylan! Beau is excited to go to the White Clouds too! He is such a hard worker and needs a break too!

* Also on a side note I still have two more openings for Photography sessions while we are in IF! Please email me with questions on pricing and to schedule an appointment! (my email address is on my photography blog)**
