First Bad Report From School

Bryce has been in pre-schoool for 3 weeks now and loves it, I can see such improvements in him already. Everyday when I go pick him up his teacher gives us a report and all of them have been great, until yesterday. I was DEVASTATED! I know I shouldn't have been, but I was. Bryce and I had a talk and we discussed what he did wrong and why he did not get any candy from his teacher, but still I wonder what else can I do. I want to know that he is learning from his mistakes, but he is only almost 3, so maybe I should give him a little slack. :)

Kelly Beach Trip

The couple that started it all. My parents were wonderful and invited all of us to the beach in August for a week. It was incredible. I took a ton of photos, but am only posting a couple of them. My Mom asked for a picture of her and Dad for their Christmas card and we got this, I think that they look great!

Here is my Dad with our Cousins Tessa and Conner from Utah, they came out to join us and we are so glad they did, we had a lot of fun with them.

Who would have thought that a man with three married children and four grandkids, could ride the waves like this.

Roy brought his surf boards, but the waves were not large enough for him to ride, but Bryce loved it. He and Roy were playing like this all on their own, I was so happy I had my camera.

Sean and Alena, so in love. I really like the shadow behind them in this picture, as well and them.

The Wilson Family Photos

I took some family photos of the Wilsons while at the beach and they turned out awesome, here are some of my favorites.

Beach for the Fourth

We went and visited some friends at the beach on Fourth of July weekend and had a blast.

This bird was going in for the kill and I happened to click right when his beack touched the water, I got way lucky.

Bryce loves to play in the sand and he did not want to stop playing for me to take some pictures of him. This is the only picture on the beach of him looking at the camera. He was to entertained by sand and Kainoa. Here we have the lovely Emma dancing during her families beach show at Holden beach. Because they move so fast, not many pictured turned out well, so this was the best one.

Jason was so great with the kids, he held them the whole time while I just snapped away with the camera.

Large Family photos

It is always interesting to do large extended family photos, because no matter what, some people just don't want to be there, but all things considering I think that this family did a great job. The kids were running everywhere, but when I was able to get a shot, they looked great.

Beautiful New Family

JD and S were married three weeks ago and now have five children in the same home. Everyone in the family is gorgeous, I can't wait to do a family portrait. Here are some pictures from the wedding. They were such a blessing to work with, I feel honored to have been there that day.

Memorial Bride

I had two weddings Memorial Weekend and here are some pictures from the first. It was so much fun and we had great weather. The bridal party had me laughing the whole time, which is not something that happens a lot because people are usually so nervous. I loved the location and am pleased with how it all turned out. I hope you enjoy too.
