My Uncle and his family

This last Sunday I went to visit my uncle and his family and we took some family pictures of them near a bank close to there home. The waterfall was turned off so we had to make do with the lighting and location. I think these turned out well. I love my uncle and his family. He has the sweetest wife Fu Yao and his children are so giving! We love Raven and Brandon and love having them as family! These were some of my favorite shots of the evening!

November- Month of Gratitude day 4

I am grateful for my home. That I have a place that I can call my own. A yard that my children can run and play in! A place that my family can gather together and enjoy one another, and make memories in.

Justin-

This here is my baby brother. 21 years old. He has been in jail for a few months waiting to go to prison. He had the option this week to take a deal for 14 years or go to jury trial that would most likely give him 25 to life. He took the deal. 14 years sounds like a lot right now, but I know that it will pass quicker then anyone would like. I hope he knows he is loved and that his Savior loves him. I hope he never gives up on himself and becomes someone he is not meant to be. Life won't be easy for him, but I think God has a plan for him. I am sure of it, I don't think He wants this kind of life for any of His children. I know as long as Michael allows Him into his heart He will be with him always. I love my baby brother and I hope he knows how much I care for him and how I want the best for him. Even now that he will be in prison for the next 14 years.

Engagement photo session

I was able to take some photos of this cute couple last night. They will be getting married in January! Here are some of my favs! I will get the opportunity to take some more later this week!

November- Month of Gratitude day 3

I am grateful for my beautiful and healthy children. They may drive me crazy and some days I may refer to them as monsters, but they are my monsters! They fill may days with joy, love, routine, purpose, chaos, stress and many many other things.

I am blessed to be the mother of these 3 special spirits

Carving Pumpkins

This year for Halloween we let the kids carve their own pumpkins! I am bummed we have not taken any pics of the finished result but I thought I would share what pics I had of them. They did extremely well for a 3 and 4 yr old! They loved it! We have to thank the grandparents for providing the pumpkins! And we had a wonderful Halloween Holiday!

November- Month of Gratitude day 2

I am grateful for my husband, who works hard to provide for all my needs as well as the children's. Who has patience with me and who loves me and the children unconditionally. I love how he will spend time with the children and let me pursue my hobbies without any complaining. Every now and then I am told how lucky I am to have such a good man... I am not lucky I am blessed to have him in my life. What a great father and husband he is.

Professional photos of kids

I had some pictures taken of my kids back in August and I am now getting around to them to share! Here are my cute cute kids!

November- Month of gratitude

This month I am going to try and post every day one thing that I am grateful for being that Thanksgiving is just a few short weeks away.

To start off I am grateful for my health. I am grateful for my healthy pregnancies and being able to run and play with my family! I am grateful I am able to walk every day without hurting. I am grateful for the strength to be able to run.

This is me crossing the finish line at my 2nd half marathon!
