Tempting???

Okay so she is so beautiful eh? I mean those eyes just pull at my heart..

and tempt me for another one... especially for a little girl.

Elias is growing so fast.. and i am getting tempted especially when i get to photograph such sweet baby girls..

maybe just maybe..

we will see.....


I love that touque!

I can't WAIT!

Lately it just seems like we never stop.. days just fly by. Less than 2 weeks until we got to Hawaii.. man it doesn't at all seem

real. These next couple of weeks are so busy.. I have a bunch of photo shoots, taking care of Luke 2 days a week and

then I have a Ward Fireside this Sunday. We are then leaving to ALberta on the following Thursday and fly out on the Saturday.. it

seems crazy to think. I have been giving Elias extra hugs and more attention than usual especially when i really think about

leaving him for a whole week. It makes me excited but Oh how i will miss him.. I honestly dont know if I can survive that long

without my snuggles from my little boy! For real.. i will be so sad to leave him.. but really can't wait to start getting out my

summer clothes.. shorts, flip flops.. Oh Ya its going to be sweet Heaven.... I can't wait!!

Beloved Prophet

So i was googling for some family home evening ideas for tonight.. I really need to be better at this so anyways then i found out that President Gordon B Hinkley passed away last night, Sunday. I was very sad to hear that but so happy for him to now be with his wife and eternal companion. Man he must be Happy right now. I am sure he has never been happier. But we will miss him. He has been such a huge part of our lives for so many years. I have always loved hearing him speak and have been marveled by what he has accomplished in his life. I wish Elias could have seen this wonderful man alive.

Together Again!



WE will miss you!!

Fun times, good friends!

Pavlova.. so yummy! Mine didnt look this pretty, and i used strawberries and bananas and kiwi instead of passionfruit and kiwis, but it still tasted excellent!



This weekend we had fun times hanging out with Friends.

On Saturday a bunch of us all went swimming, which included us , Karen and Brad, Woody and Laura, Brad and Jac, Liam and

Jared, Becky and her kids, and Jen and Eric. Then we went out to Jerry's after for icecream and some eats. It was a good time,

its so hard to all get together since we all have kids now so it was fun!

Then on Sunday we had Brad and Jac and Woody and Laura over for dinner.. Me and Jer made Pavlova which is a pretty precise and

detailed dessert to make. It turned out really good, almost too sweet for me, but it was actually fun to make for the 1st time and

will defianetly try it again with different toppings. Then we all played the Wii, everyone was really getting into Guitar Hero. It was

fun! Thanks for the good night!

A cold one....

I love taking winter pictures... but boy was it alot colder than i thought it was going to be. Elias is
getting really good at walking, he is now 14months old and loves to explore and walk everywhere.
I would have not been able to take these pictures if he wasnt walking, so its nice and he loves his new
found freedom and i like it too!
Elias was a trooper in the cold, we didnt stay very long at all..but i was able to still get some great shots..
check out my photography to see more..
