Bad Day.

I sat on my couch this afternoon a broken woman.  It seemed like no matter what I did crap just kept pilling on.  Nothing could break me out of this sad and depressing slump I had fallen in . . . until Alex came home for lunch with a big basket of beautiful flowers in his arms.  How could I not smile?  Alex asked to to be his wife 4 years ago today.  Thanks my love!  You really made my day!

Now on to business news, I was lying in bed last night thinking how stupid it was that my Christmas sale only lasted until the 15th.  I have decided that these sale prices will be good until the first o December, which is the same day that all orders for Christmas will need to be ordered by.  Don’t forget that Christmas Cards must be ordered by the 22nd!  If you are ordering your photos online the promo code is: XMAS08

To the next order of business. . . I have been a very bad blogger.  I had so much fun in October blogging every day, but I just couldn’t keep it up.  I don’t know how [b]ecker did it for so long!!!  I do have a few thing I need to blog

-UHS Cheerleaders

-Lili’s Maternity Session

-Katie and Robbie’s Engagement Session-Take 2!

I think that I will be up to date after that.  Keep checking back.  

 

Mucho Loves!

Some previews of what is to come!

I have been so busy today that I didn’t get a chance to get a whole blog post up!  Sorry about that!  I did however get together some little teasers of what is coming the next few days!

 

I took my nephew Brendan’s 6 month pictures about a week ago.  Isn’t he the cutest baby ever!!!

I also took some family portraits of an amazing family!  They were so much fun to shoot.  Don’t you love how the dog is posing too!  So cute!

I always love senior portraits!  I had the awesome experience of doing 2 senior sessions in the past week. They are both beautiful fun girls!  Wait until you see the rest!!!

Here is Maygen

Dye Fall Family Portraits : Take Two

Since Kristen and Quincy had the meanest kids on the planet the last time we took their family pictures we decided to do them again when we were both in Salt Lake one weekend. BTW Kristen and I are very good friends and I really don’t think her kids are mean.  It is kind of an inside joke!

 

I cracked up at this picture!  I told Ashton to pick a place to take pictures in front of and her chose this place because it was ’so scary’ Can’t you tell by the scared faces?

He was in a much better mood this time!

He is so crazy!!!

Paige loves the boys!  When she saw them there she was so excited!
