Burrr......Baby it's been COLD outside!

To our Arizona and Florida Aunty and Uncle coming home for Christmas: Bring your warm clothes cause this weather is surely not what you're used too! Can't wait to see you!!!!

Sledding...

...was a no-go this weekend at Alta Lake. Avery and I got back last night. We gave sledding a try for the first time and she did not like it. She really didn't like seeing mommy sled by herself either. Maybe next year. Sorry no pictures to post from the weekend. I didn't pack my camera. Seems like I get Avery packed perfectly for out of town trips, yet I always forget my own things!! Oh well, I must be a mom! Ha ha ha! Anyways... I'm hoping to catch some great holiday shots coming up in the next week. Plus, I've got some exciting news coming as well, so stay tuned......!

Another Beautiful Family

I've been so lucky lately to be holding my first sessions!! I've photographed some beautiful families with in the last month and I'm just loving it! Lifestyle photography has definitely become my newfound passion! Here's a couple from the other day:

Anyways... super-cute family!

I'll be heading out of town tonight. I'm taking Avery over to my parent's house east of the mountains to play in the snow for the weekend. And I'll definitely have my camera!! (Avery doesn't know it yet, but she's going to give sledding a try for the first time!)

One more from the other day:

'C' fell asleep in the car on our way home from picture taking on Thursday. We flat out wore the little guy out... he was in the middle of eating his lunch. Sweet boy fell asleep with his hand in his Happy Meal bag! Tooooo cute!

ALL BOY(s)

Today I was able to get down to my cousin's house to do a little session with her boys. I'm thrilled with the way her pictures turned out. I'm quite happy also because I finally got to take some shots on train tracks! LOVE IT!! I think train tracks are my new favorite place to take pictures! The boys were VERY cooperative... little treats never hurt! Here's a few from today:

Pretty cute, huh?

Avery's 1st Snow!

(I'm speechless...) OK, well it's her second...but she was too little to care about it last year. Around 1:30pm today it started snowing. It's still snowing right now at 9pm! After Avery woke up from her nap I bundled her up as best I could and we went out to play in the snow. All she could say was, "Wow," and "Look!" She walked, crawled, stumbled and sat in the snow while she held it in her mitten covered hands so adoringly! Pretty cute!

Did I capture a shot for our Christmas cards this year???

Well, maybe. She didn't seem to mind too much. I snapped of few of these and although she's ADORABLE, not the type of shot I had in mind for our cards. Then... this started happening:

She began yelling at me, "Geet done, geet done," ('done' with a long O) which is "get down" in Avery's language. And it just went downhill from there. Gee, maybe I should have started working on this earlier, rather than the first day of December?? Ha ha... oh well, what would the holidays be like without any of the hussle~bussle?

I did end up catching this cute little profile shot though. :)
