Foggy Morning

It is finally fall and I am so excited! I love everything about fall. I love the colors, the weather, the clothes, the activities, and most of the Holidays. haha.. I am not the biggest fan of Halloween but my kids love it so I try to be a good sport.
It has been raining for about 2 weeks now it seems. I don't mind because I like to stay inside, but Jack and Hudson are going to stir CRaZy. So the other morning, during the short time while it wasn't raining we went outside in the fog and took some photos. Only a few of the ones of Hudson turned out.

I found these photos from a few weeks ago when we could still play outside. On all of these photos, I have been trying out some new presets and editing. I am really excited for Wednesday because Ted got me a new lens!

I love to see the Temple

I saw this beautiful idea for the kids to put in their room. I want them to grow up loving the Temple. Every time we pass a Temple, I try and make a big deal about how beautiful and special it is. Jack now loves to point them out.

Father's Day

I forgot to post the present I made for Ted for Father's Day

Madison's engagement photos

While in Idaho, I got the chance to take Madison's engagement photos. They claimed they loved them so much that they offered to let me to take their wedding photos as well! But with Ted just starting classes, it just wasn't possible with two kids.

over the summer

I know, I know. It has been far to long since I have updated anything about my family. I get overwhelmed when I think about going back and updating everything I have missed. So, then I just don't.
Before we went home for the summer, Ted bought me a DSLR camera with a gift card he had from school. I now have a  cannon SL1. It is the smallest DSLR camera currently on the market, which is nice because it is easy to carry.

JUNE 21st, When Ted finally finished his last test we finished loading up the truck and went home to Idaho. We were there until the 5th of August.  We had lots of fun. Jack, Hudson, and Indy didn't want to come to back!

more photos!

Photography

I have always loved and have been interested in Photography but until now I have never had the time or the camera to take full advantage of it. I wish I had the money for a new lens, but since I don't, I am going to take it as a challenge. 

Saturday with out Dad

While Ted was gone to play paintball one Saturday, I surprised the kids with this tunnel. They loved it!

Maymount

The long we have lived here in Virginia, the more beautiful it becomes. The first time we went to Maymount, it was in the late fall and there were hardly any flowers in bloom. We decided to go back this spring. This time we didn't even make to the flower garden. We instead took a walk and found some animals for Jack and Hudson to see. We got there at closing time so most of the animals were put in for the night, sadly. But it was still Beautiful. I guess we will have to go back again!

Helping dad

Every time Ted goes out to test one of his paintball markers the kids are right behind him.   I love how much they want to be involved in everything he does. He does a great job at letting them tag along and help him. I couldn't ask for a better father, or husband.

Hudson

How can you not just love this face!
