Our little whipper snapper is ONE

I can't believe this chunk of love is going to be one on Thursday. It doesn't seem like a year ago that we were driving up to UT facing so much unknown and now he fits right in as if it has always been like this.

Yesterday was a HUGE day as he took his first steps. He took about two steps towards Paul and then started stepping sideways - already a show-off.

We dig him in a big way!!!!

Happiest Birthday Ty Ty!

I LOVE CUTE, HAPPY FAMILIES. . .

not to mention easy going, funny, little bit crazy and photogenic.

PHOTO SHOOT WITH THE LAURELS

I'm fortunate enough to be the Laurel advisor in my ward and I do believe these girls are all so beautiful, inside and out. It was fun working on their photos and knowing a bit of their spirit - I think it made them that much more beautiful to me as I edited each photo. Pretty girls!! There's a photo of me with my mutual group from back in the days floating around facebook and I was NOT a sight to see. We'll blame it on the photographer.

Holy Sweetness!!

I love photography with almost a passion but I struggle with quite a few insecurities as I see what other photographers can create. That said, baby shoots are my most difficult. Newborns don't give me much personality no matter how funny I am so therefore, not much to document. So to challenge myself I found me a newborn and decided to try something new. Thanks to sweet baby's mama as she trusted me and let me experiment on this precious ball of love. Truly this little gal is perfection!
