I have been scanning and uploading photos in an attempt to do some archiving, and oh wow, it has been interesting to look back.
Check out my serious big permed hair! Yes it was the 80's and that is how we did things.These photos are all from my college days. (isn't my sister Laurie so cute?)

With all this, plus the bonus Photo Games and Checklists section, you'll be capturing real smiles in no time at all—and having a great time with your kids along the way.

Had fun updating a few of these around the house, and thought I would share a few.
The first one is a magnet board from Adorn It and it sits right in front of my computer. It includes one of my favorite photos of my 5 boys, part of a string art flower from a Mother's day project, a couple other favorite photos, and matroshka magnets.
The second is smaller and is displayed on our computer desk. I have one in each of the kids bedrooms and need to update them with some newer photos. Pretty cute I have to say.
had the chance to take photos of a dear friend of mine and her finance. They are so adorable- I used some of these photos in my spool project below.
my favorite shots are the ones where you can see how in love they are
do you think shooting in front of old houses and brightly colored walls will get old in photography?
Thanks for stopping by- now off to take the kids swimming and then more school shopping.
Elisha Snow took photos of our family this month and I am happy with how they turned out. She shot us around Bountiful's main street. My kids were less than thrilled to be photographed on a hot evening- but now they are pleased with the results. I am thinking I want to order a canvas wrap for my stairway.
Justin insisted on wearing a hat because he wanted to look different.
Quite a lively looking family. Enjoy your weekend.
This is Michelle and Tyson. When Michelle was 9 she moved next door to me with her family. She would come over and play with my boys, chat with me, and play with the pets. Her family moved after four years and we have stayed in touch ever since then, getting together every few months and catching up. Now she is getting married. Aren't they such a cute couple?
Congrats cutie!
