So this July Laura’s older sister Marie got married! They asked me to take pictures. I took 1334 pictures that day. I took 1146 bridals, Laura took 491 bridals. I took 981 engagements.
So here are some of the photos from the wedding day. (If I find some time I may pick some bridals to add later.)
A note about the photos – Marie has a copy of them all (1334, in nice high quality). If you want a copy, go through her. I put logos on them so that no one will steal them without asking anybody. So don’t steal, it is bad.
I have learned from all of this that I like photography as a hobby, and I intend to keep it that way.
Happy Holidays, as Christmas draws near I like to find some treats that help bring home the spirit of Christmas.
Here is a wonderful video of the story behind the lyrics to the song “I heard the bells on Christmas Day”:
I know it is shocking, but for some reason I feel like posting again today. We have a lot of fun pictures I could share. Here are some from today. Hyrum wanted a bike a few months ago but we didn’t want to encourage the idea that he seemed to be getting that he should get whatever he wanted whenever just because he wanted it. So, Adam told him that he could either wait until his birthday or Christmas or he could earn money to buy one sooner. Well, it just so happened that my mom got a bike just a few days later for free that was his size! We didn’t think it was a good idea to go back on the idea that he needed to earn the bike himself. So, since the bike had broken pedals we told him he needed to earn enough money to replace the broken pedals, which was a much more reachable goal for a four-year-old. However, he wasn’t really very motivated to actually work for the money, so it took him months to earn it.
But last weekend he finally earned enough money. He was so excited and now he wants to ride it all the time. Unfortunately the day after we bought the pedals the weather turned cold, but he has had fun anyway. We are proud of him!
On to other fun news, my sister had her baby last month so we have our first cousin/niece or nephew that lives within thousands of miles of us (not that we love our other ones any less, it’s just fun to finally have one close by!) She is so cute and sweet. When we went to meet her at the hospital I couldn’t believe how tiny she was. They grow so fast you forget they were ever so little!
Here are some pictures that Adam took of her.
Cute little toes! Annie keeps talking about babies and saying, “When Aria gets bigger I can play with her!”
