lovely little Isabel

While in Utah this summer, I was blessed to be able to photograph the newest addition to my side of the family...

Meet Isabel. My lovely little niece.

 

a few recent ones

We've had a fabulous summer.... lots of comings and goings and lots of fun. We've made our way to Utah and California, with many trips to the pool and beach and a stop by Disneyland and Legoland. The start of school is a week away... oh my. I'm not ready for Ryder to be away from me for so long.

I have LOTS of pictures to catch up on, but here are just a few...

 Ryder, my budding archeologist

 My gorgeous niece, Ashlan.

 My spunky niece, Kate.

My clever, beautiful niece, Elli.

I'll be back with more soon... I've had quite the long hiatus!

Happy Birthday!

Ryder turned the big 6 today... And Todd turned 31. Happy birthday to two of my most favoritist boys!!! I love you both so very much!

So far we have celebrated with a few of ryder's friends with a surprise french toast breakfast at hm, headed to the beach for a warm day in the sun and then hm for naps and birthday cake making.

Poor Todd didn't get to join in any of the fun and has had a horribly long day in the OR. :( We look forward to him coming hm and joining us for dinner out, presents and cake!

love this!

20 Things You Don’t Have To Do On The Internet

my little pajama men

My little men walked around my parents' home today in search of beautiful light for a baby shoot... Hudson even posed with the backdrop. You've gotta love the food, snot and remnants of a bloody nose in these pics. We're too busy having fun to really clean our faces, I guess.

 

Darling

Please tell me you love this as much as I do! I introduce you to Hazel, Hudson's betrothed... as far as I'm concerned, anyway. ;)

Life

My pepper eating, artistic, tball winning, McDonald playing, future doctor, sports playing, bbq going, goofy boys. I love them!
