Grubby, little, tiny hands...

Exploring...grubby...little....excitement....a few things that I love about this picture.  It reminds me of some magical story that has little elves and fairies.  I think its the moss and the innocence of my little girls hands that made me think of that.  The time spent that day...priceless.  A beautiful little hike that I went on with my hubby and two kids.  Fall in New York...so amazing.  Canopy's of beautiful fall leaves, dark green moss growing on the bark, the crunch of the leaves beneath our feet...thats part of the reason I love this picture.  It brings back the memories of that special day. 

I heart faces is having a contest on hands.  I know, anyone who knows me KNOWS that I LOVE hands...so I'm super excited to see what all the photographers bring in for this...Click on this little icon below to check out other AMAZING photographer's work...


  

Studio...yes, studio...

I just happen to have the best front room with the best lighting ever.  I am crazy in love with that room for all that beautiful lighting.  I typically, do not shoot indoors...but ever since I started shooting in my front room, well, now I want to have a studio set up right there.    Who knew not having furniture would create some ideas for me...anyway, enjoy the family love.  I used a timer today...must admit using Kenzie's doll house to hold the camera might not have been the best idea BUT I got a picture with her that I will love forever.  So you are next...come on over to my little indoor studio.  :) 

can't take credit for the one above...Jon took it.  He's good huh?  :)

Hello beautiful...

Miss Hayley...I'm crazy about this little girl.  She makes me smile, laugh and my heart just squeezes a little when I see her.  She is just sweet.  Today, was fun...she was in a very funny mood.  Talked on the pretend phone to her uncle Tim, dad, Matt and her Mom...sang songs to Disney princesses, danced with Hudson, played peek a boo with me and my camera...just a really good day for me to spend with her.  I can't wait to see who she becomes someday...because right now, she's just beautiful...

kiss, kiss, kiss...

February...love...kissing...family....sigh.  I love it.  I really do.  Over at I heart faces there is a theme...can you guess it?   Yup, kissing...any kind of kiss is what they are looking for. While  I would love to show the heart stopping kisses my hubby gives me, I decided to go for my daughter kissing her brother.  A very rare and awesome moment to catch as a mom when you do.  It just so happens I also caught it on my camera.  Love when that happens...anyway, enjoy the sweet and rare moments of love between a brother and sister...ALSO, there are some other amazing photographers over at I heart faces...click here to check them out too...

places I love...

Well, it just so happens that I live in a state, (Colorado), thats beautiful.  Mountains, my husband and I love them.  We love to hike around on them, gaze at them (we have a pretty awesome view from our house) or in my husbands case, he wants to hike all 14 of them in Colorado.  Crazy but cool.  This summer I'm excited because my kids will finally be old enough to take camping to enjoy these beautiful mountians.  So here are a few pics of places I love...some of them were taken in Denver (guess which one :) and the one with the beautiful tree, taken in Ramah, CO.  Enjoy to view other beautiful places that others have seen click on :
