Family weekend

We had a great weekend celebrating my mom's 60th birthday.  We had great weather for our BBQ and everything was really nice.  I didn't take any pictures at the party (oops) but we did take a family one.  We also did some kid pictures on Sunday.  Here's a few....

Francesca really wanted a picture with J.T.

Michela loves her Uncle!

Michela just celebrated her 4th birthday... where does time go?

Bribery was the name of the game here.... lots of M&Ms and Skittles!

Cattle drive

We had our *almost*  annual cattle drive over the weekend.  It was from one ranch to another, and back.  I took lunch out and even got horseback for the second part of the ride.  My horse, Sam, did great.  He hadn't been ridden in quite a few months, and he just cruised along even when my hands weren't on the reins so I could take a few shots.  Everything went well and it was really warm.

Here's a few pictures I took.....

Time- where does it go?

I was doing really well for the past few months on keeping this blog updated. Lately, not so much!  School is going well for the kids and I have been super busy with school pictures. I'm photographing about 1400 kids or so, in a 6 week time period.  So far so good!  Here are my kids' school pictures...

I will try to do better on updating this.....

Fall pics

Our annual tradition of taking fall pictures the day before school starts (wearing some new school clothes)...
