Someone asked me if my camera was broken and didn’t do color anymore…um, no. I like black and white alright, so shoot me.
It was bad lighting, but she just looked so dang cute. I’ll have to retake these to satisfy the perfectionist in me.
Isaac has decided he doesn’t need naps anymore, so we’re doing “quiet time” and I cross my fingers that he’ll fall asleep. Last week I was sick so I let him watch more tv that usual so I could take a nap. I came out to find this scene on the couch…so precious. Boy do I miss those 2-3 hour naps, oh the work I used to be able to get done…and the blogs I used to frequent.
I have been able to do a handful of family shoots lately. While I still think my camera does much better with just kids for some reason, here are a couple fun shots that make me smile.
The festivities started out with lizard races. Isaac enjoyed squeezing and petting the lizard.
He was all over that pinata.
Check out these hilarious masks that all the kids we wearing. We were dying laughing.
On Friday, Amy and our friends Blake and Leslie joined us at Tibble Fork, (up American Fork canyon) for what turned out to be not such a lovely afternoon. While the boys enjoyed themselves biking, the ladies dealt with all sorts of things.
First up was Livi falling in the sludge that surrounded the lake two minutes after arriving.
Then several microbursts which left all five kids crying, sand in our sandwiches and our chairs and blankets strewn across the dirt. Another highlight was a lovely tantrum by Isaac, followed by rain.
Despite it all, we’re laughing about it (now) and did enjoy the beauty of our surroundings.
This weekend we went to “India Fest” at the Sri Sri Radha Krishna temple in a very windy Spanish Fork. Does this seem like a random location to anyone else??
We enjoyed looking around the temple…
Playing on the elephants…
Eating delicious Indian food (our favorite!). As a side note, I cooked a friend’s recipe for and Indian dish the other night. BIG MISTAKE. Our house STILL reeks and it was almost a week ago. Note to self: only eat at Bombay House when craving India food.
Feeding the llamas…
And watching our happy little girl smile at everyone from her carseat.
