Fun Times

We just got back from spending a few days in St.George with Sam's parents. We had a great time and celebrated Sam's Birthday, visited Fish Lake, the Grand Canyon, Bryce National Park and Las Vegas. My favorite part was seeing the Cirque de Soleil show, LOVE. If you are ever in Vegas, you have to see it! It was the typical desert climate - 109 degrees in Vegas. We had a great time with Sam's parents and Hadley's first tooth started coming in while we were on our trip. She also said, "I love you" to Joan. It was pretty funny.
I spent some time taking some awesome pictures of the St. George Temple and some other sights around St. George. Check out my pictures HERE.
Anyway, here are pictures from our fabulous trip! Thanks, Phil and Joan for the wonderful time!

The Grand Canyon is beautiful



We went on an awesome hike in the blazing heat.

It's been awhile..

I have been pretty busy lately with weddings, working, hanging out with Sam since he's now done with school, etc. so I've neglected the blog. We have been doing so much lately that it's hard to blog everything we've been doing!
Anyway, my parents and sister Morgan came to town last weekend and we had a great time with them. It is so fun to see them with Hadley- the all just love her so much! Here are some pictures of our fun times together. We had the greatest time hanging out, going on a hike and just being together.
I did a very quick shoot of my parents for their 25th Anniversary. It's so cute to see how much they still love each other. You can check out their pictures here.



Hadley loves her Grandpa!

My parents bought this insanely adorable dress for Hadley. So cute!




On a side note, if any of you guys have friends/family members getting married, please send them my way for their photography! If you have a friend who books their wedding through me, I'll give you $100 and if your friends book a family session through me, I'll buy you lunch (I'm not kidding!) I'm totally wiling to travel. Sorry for the shameless self-promotion, but hey, it's my blog and I hope to get my name out there more and because you guys are my friends, you can all help me!
