small things...

Ellie brought this flower home from the ward party last night.

This morning when I woke up I came into the kitchen and saw it sitting there, so pretty.

I am amazed how something so simple, and yet so involved, can make me feel like this is going to be a wonderful day.

and even better have fun together.

Here are a few from Kevin and Ashley's bridal shoot. Hopefully I can post more soon because there are so many beautiful pictures.

side note: I just have to give props to all the many photographers out there that keep their blogs updated regularly, while running a business. It is a lot, a lot, a lot of work. If I haven't posted your shoot it is not because I don't love the pictures, it is simply because I can't keep up. Please forgive me.

were back...

...after a very fun two week vacation we finally arrived back home last night at midnight. I have tons of unpacking to do but of course looking at all the pictures I took on our trip came before all that "work" stuff.

As you can see, we enjoyed our time at the beach...

...and Josh and I have a new family picture that will be getting blown up this week.
I am really loving my tripod :)
