baby Z

Here are just a quick few from a session I did today. What a cute little guy, but so squirmy :) I can't wait to attempt a shot with him and his 3 sisters and brother on Friday!!!

Welcome to the WILLIAMS LAKE STAMMMMMPEDE !!!

I love the stampede, everything from the tons of people in town for the weekend to the crazy parking it takes to see the parade. The rodeo is 4 days and I'd go each day if I could. Olivia has loved the rodeo since she went to her first one when she was 1. Each year we've gone and she's sat and watched the whole thing (it's almost 4 hours long!!). This was Dawson's and although the bar was set high I didn't think he'd last, but he loved it too :) Here are a few pictures from last night performance, we took today off but are heading back tomorrow and Monday.

Garden guest & crop

Olivia spotted this little guy in our garden, he looks a little ragged but seems to fly around fine, and he didn't mind a camera right up in his face :)

Here's our first crop of strawberries~ it took about 3 months to grow and only 3 seconds to eat, but so tasty :)

I ♥ Faces kids ~ lets hear it for the boys!! :)

I was trying to get a good shot as a Fathers Day gift and trying to get a squirmy crawly 10 month old to sit still is highly overrated!! :) Ha ha then trying to instruct a 4 year old to help was almost more than my sanity could take :) And I just have to say man are boys noisier and busier than girls... so far anyways. Even at 10 months Dawson is giving us way more of a run for our money than Olivia ever did. Our only saving grace is that he is an amazing sleeper!!

Happy Fathers Day

Here are a few pictures I took today of the kids for a Fathers Day present for Jaimie. It is quite hard to take pictures of a VERy squirmy 10 month old with only the help of an almost 4 year old... :)

Emily & Brody

I don't know if I've even seen a brother and sister get along so well!! They were hilarious to shoot, with more ideas than I even had :)

9 months old...

...and a going concern :) He's crawling and pulling himself up on furniture and generally headed in whatever direction Olivia's at.

I heart faces~ pets/animals

While this guy's not my pet, I wish he was. He certainly is a character and well loved at the ranch we recently visited.
