photography inspiration

Wow, a little birdie told me about a blog where the photos are just incredible. I want to take photos like that! What is stopping me? If only I knew - I take photos anyway but I would enjoy even more the result and the concept if I could get something that was anything like Ralphies with the lighting and composition - practice, practice, practice and more money invested in equipment?!!!!I know thou shalt not envy but I really wish I was at least behind Ralphie in line when they were giving out photography ability! Or only a little further back. Just a little.

Teach them truth

A snippet from General Conference a few weeks ago.

Teach them truth and teach them to live it.

Giving up is not an option. Turn to the Lord.
Never let an earthly circumstance disable you spiritually.


It is nice to get some perspective sometimes amongst the everyday wear and tear:)

Remembering



It seems so long ago now - Hape and my wedding day but it was about 7 or so years ago - time has flown and in the meantime we have two precious children. We thank God for you every single day (at least 2x). We didn't have as much to organise as Marena and Rob so things were a bit less complicated - they did an awesome job of bringing it all together - can't wait to see the professional photos. Here are a few pics of our day.

My little sister's wedding day





Wedding day 11th April 2010 - it was really special to be a part of her special day. Jordan our daughter was the flower girl and I was maid of honor. It was special to be there as unfortunately Marena was in Utah studying when we were married. I felt emotional and it was a special moment to share with not only my sister but my daughter as well. Ever since she heard Auntie Rena was getting married she kept asking "who's going to marry me?"

While you were sleeping



Today while you were sleeping
I admired you and your cuteness
I couldn't resist a couple of shots,
testing to see if I could take one that wasn't blurry,
I put in your cot,
tidied up,
did dishes,
put out the washing,
hung out and snuggled with your sister on the couch
and thought about how much I love you both
