not just another Senior

It is so fun taking Senior portraits...
It reminds me of when I was in High School...which was long ago, it seems...and how much fun everything was.
I still think things are fun, but I suppose life gets in the way sometimes...which I am all for except it is nice to step out of my "LIFE" and into someone elses.
I had the opportunity to take photos of one of my closest friends son...Christopher.




it was a cold and windy day that day...but I still had fun





he did too!!!





I took these at there home...I loved the red barn








I love having the symbolism in my photos...
for instance the road.





it represents the road they are on and journey ahead...all that is waiting for them





life is full of different roads...so choose wisely





thank you for the time and for the chance to get to know you better...
I wish you all the best for the rest of the year, and for your journey ahead.

A proud MOM!!

last night was parent teacher conference...
Shane and I went in there thinking that she is doing well but had no idea what we were going to learn about her days in school...
The first thing we did was talk about her Reading...she is reading at a 6th grade level...and has an 89%, almost an A
next was her Writing...the highest score you can have is an 85% & she has an 84%, a B
in Spelling she has a 97%, an A
then came Math...dun dun dun...and low and behold she has an 81%, a B...we would never had thought she was going to get caught up with the whole week she had missed being sick but she has and then some...
then came Social Studies(Wyoming History)...she is at 90%, an A
in PE she is at 100%, an A+++...LOL, you go girl!!!
in Art she is at 86%, a B
in Music she is at 91%, an A
we can't stop telling her how proud we are of her and all her hard work...her teacher told us she is a "JOY" to have in class.
she has also graded a 3 in all her Life Skills and Social Skills(Rubric Grading Scale).
I was just so proud that I had to post for all to see...especially for family that does not live near us.
RJ, you blow us away sometimes with how smart you are and what a good girl you are...we couldn't have asked for a better ROO BUG!!!
We LOVE you and are so Thankful for you!!

Can't wait to capture you next Fleeting Moments

~Love...Cherish...for Eternity~

while I was down in California for my first trip I had the chance to capture some moments of some very special people to me...
My In-laws
I have been apart of this wonderful family for 11 years...we have always done silly photo opts but never really have I had a chance to capture these 2 wonderful people like I did this time





they held hands like they have been together for only a few years...instead of 32 years or there about...





they have a Love that will last the eternities...





the first time I ever met them I felt like I belonged in this family and they have always treated me so...





it is not everyday that you can say you have the BEST in-laws...and I am so grateful I can





steeling little moments of laughter,kisses,holding hands...





trying not to get in the way of a moment...but being able to capture it so that others can see what it is I saw...





True Love...





to the BEST in-laws ever...I love you like my own parents and thank you for this chance I had to see you as you truly are...
A couple that will always be able to look at each other and know that they are the reason for everything...
I love you, xo's

new addition...

here is our new addition to the family...our horse family that is.

Meet Pete...a POA pony we got for RJ. He is 3 years old and is 14 hands tall...we got him for her cause she is serious about starting to race barrels next spring.





he is green broke so we have some work to do but he is so eager to please it is not going to be very hard...





he has already bonded with RJ...she adores him and he follows her everywhere





taking him to the round pen to work him...








watching Daddy work him...she has learned so much from watching I don't think it will be long until she is doing it herself...





little girls and there dreams...we are so happy we can make hers come true...








our little cowgirl





these are just some shots I got of the things around...I loved the light that day
