all is right

Our holidays were wonderful. Lots of time with family/friends, lots of food, lots of fun gifts.
Oh, and one sick kid. We survived.
But he still isn't 100% well. Some strong antibiotics will hopefully help him out.

I didn't take nearly enough pictures of our holidays. After years of shoving the lens in everyone's face, I have eased off a lot, at a time when I should be documenting more than ever. Sometimes I feel guilty like I'm not capturing all of Sawyers life in pictures and in journals and in scrapbooks, but I am trying. Thats a little goal for the year. Scrapbook this kids first year of life before the 2nd year starts!

The weather has been b-e-a-u-tiful lately. So we took to the park. Sawyer really just wanted to talk to other kids there who were all bigger and faster and didn't want to be bothered by a baby. So we slid the slides.


This picture happened totally by accident. I looked up just in time to focus, and click. It is my new favorite thing. Enlargement has been ordered, it will grace my walls soon.

So, this is the new year.

You are such a great artist! I'm hoping you'll do photos for me when I have a little one??? You should start a business!

Meesha I would love to do pictures for you. I would start a biz but there's just so many Mormon photographers in Vegas and I'd just be a small fish. But for sure let me know if you want to do photos after that baby girl arrives.
