Last weekend we were in Rosemary with Matt's family. His sister Kim and her family just moved to New Zealand - so we all wanted to see them one last time before they left. We had family pictures done at the old farm and they turned out great! (no, I didn't take them)

While we were out at the farm - I had to sneak in a few pics of my own.
It was such a beautiful day and the farm is such a great place for pictures!

Happy Thanksgiving!

We had a fantastic Thanksgiving weekend. We were able to go to Rosemary, where Matt's family lives. We had an amazing dinner on Sunday, and luckily my family was able to come to Rosemary for that. It was so great to see everyone and to have fun together! We got to see the brand new homes that Matt's two sisters just moved into - they are so beautiful and it was hard not to feel a teeny bit jealous! But I'm happy and excited for them! We also went out to the farm to take a few pictures of Max and Aiden in their costumes - they are both skunks and they look so cute!!

Since it is Thanksgiving, I have been thinking of a few things that I am thankful for:
-my little family!
I am so lucky to have such an amazing husband and such a fun little boy! I love them both so much! I am so happy that I get to stay home with Aiden every day, and that I have a husband who supports me as a mother.
-my big family!
We have such a big family and I LOVE it! It is awesome to have so many people who care about you and love you!
-Matt's eduction!
I am so excited for Matt to be done school (7 months left!!), but it has been such a wonderful thing for our family. All of these years of school have blessed Matt with amazing experiences and they have helped us to learn a thing or two!
-my religion!
It brings direction and purpose to my life - I would be lost without it!
-my little cozy home!
It's nothing fancy or grand, but it's still home - and we are so lucky to be here!
-the opportunity to learn new things!
I LOVE that I am learning more about photography! I LOVE doing it and it has gotten me out of a bit of a rut!

Anyways, the list could go on and on and on, but I'll stop there. Here's a few pics from this weekend!

The Kutanzi Family

I took some family photos of our neighbors Jarrett, Alana and their little boy Landon. It was real fun trying to get Landon to look my way - he was definitely a lot more interested in the leaves than in me! Oh the joys of taking pictures of one and a half year olds! But I think our efforts paid off and we did manage to get a few good ones!

The McMullin Family

My friend Lianne has been wanting me to take family pictures for her for a while now.

I was really nervous about doing it - mainly because I didn't want them to turn out
really awful. But, it wasn't as bad as I thought. I didn't really know what I was
doing, but Ben, Lianne and even Cameron were all super helpful and cooperative
and patient with me! Thanks guys for putting up with my learning!!
Hopefully there's a few that you like!!
