Happy Halloween 201110.31.11

Superheroes are a big deal at our house. Most little girls want to be princesses and fairies for Halloween, but when Ethan said he wanted to be Captain America, Ada insisted that she was Iron Man. Gabe didn’t get to decide, but we went with the avengers theme and made him Hulk. It couldn’t be more fitting, though. This kid is easily the most destructive of the three.

I love how serious they take dressing up. When in costume, they need to be called by that characters name. They LOVED it when I told them “Avengers Assemble”.

St. George Weekend10.24.11

I really enjoy shooting weddings in St. George because we can make a little family trip out of it. On Friday I had the opportunity to shoot Eric and Kim’s lovely wedding at the St. George Temple. These two were a lot of fun and spending the day with their family and friends was a pleasure. Expect a post of their wedding soon, but in the meantime, here is a sneak peek…

 

On Saturday, I was able to spend the entire day, care-free with, my wife and kids. I’m the type that likes to do as much as I can during a vacation, where as my wife loves to just hang out. I decided to ease up and just go with the flow. We went to breakfast, hung out at the pool and grabbed dinner and Ice cream. It was an awesome weekend.

This Naked Indian is right next to the house we stay in, and it’s what tells me we are finally done driving, and the fun can finally begin.

 

Ethan and Ada loved the cacti, and had to talk about each one we saw.

 

I love the dollar racks at Target. We picked up these awesome vampire teeth and some glow sticks there. I imagined having a sweet party, but Ethan and Ada decided they would use them to be sharks in the pool. I’m not sure how much the other swimmers enjoyed us, but we had a blast.

 

Such a cute little princess!

One of the highlights of Saturday was meeting my “#1 Fan”. Brenna was down hanging out with my brothers in-law. She had no idea that I was part of the family, but when she found out, she got excited and told them how she and her friends stalk the blog all the time. So of course, I had to take a picture with her.  It was nice meeting you Brenna!

Lovin the Fall10.16.11

Have you been up the canyon’s lately. If you haven’t YOU SHOULD. Get in the car, roll down the windows and turn on some mellow music. I was listening to The Civil Wars, for example. Seriously though I sometimes forget how amazing Utah’s canyons are during the fall.

Baby Eden10.06.11

Here are some pictures of my sister’s beautiful baby Eden. I felt like the blog needed a quick little break from weddings. Don’t get me wrong, I have a lot of beautiful weddings that I’m dying to share with you.

Baby Zebra06.02.11

After my son’s soccer practice tonight, we decided not to let the nice evening end. My wife told me about a baby Zebra she found while on a walk with the kids the other day. I’ve never heard of someone having a pet zebra, but sure enough there he is.

Even though their hair is a mess and not picture ready these kids are adorable.

Morning Breakfast02.14.11

I love spending Saturday mornings with my kids. This last Saturday my Little Buddy helped me make breakfast burritos. He is obsessed with being a chef lately, which I fully support. I am certainly not a chef, but I was able to teach him one very important thing. All good chefs taste the food. He liked that idea.

I included a picture of my Sweet Pea, because how many people look that cute right after waking up?

He Sits!02.06.11

It only took him seven months to master but he finally has it down. He can jump, he can catch air in his bouncy seat, he can make his car seat turn 180 degrees by rocking himself, and I may have seen a bit of an army crawl. But sitting up has been a struggle, until now.
