First Wedding

A friend in my ward asked me to do pictures of her daughters wedding. Since I'm highly inexperienced, and don't really know what I'm doing, I did it for free of course. I learned a lot in the process, and there is a whole list of things I would do different. But here's a link to my photo blog, if you want to check it out!

Brooklyn's 4th Pirate Birthday

Pirate Party! Arrggg! We played pin the treasure on the Map.

But her favorite gift was a Iron Man costume, in which she quickly ditched her pirate costume, and blasted people with her super powers the rest of the party.

Kids making mother day gifts, the adults went out to eat and on a shopping spree, learning about Chicken Little, making tie dye shirts, crying, fights, tantrums, messes, laughing, giggling, and making lots of memories!
