Professional Fun

This crew knows how to have fun.  They are hired to have fun. They are professional have-fun-people.  Just look at the pictures.  They explain the fun-ness.

Annan and Rachel

Annan and Rachel are some friends of ours who came out to our place the other day.  We went on a walk and I just happened to have my camera with me, so of course I just had to take a few pictures of this adorable couple.  Thanks for a fun time guys~ 

Beautiful Oregon Coast

Clean. Crisp. Simple. Serene. Rich. 

I love the colors the Oregon Coast brings to the plate. 

Light Blue. White. Black. Neutral. Grey.

I didn't realize how much my home's color scheme reflects the Oregon Coast's Palette.

First look at the Oregon Coast pictures... then scroll down and see my home's color scheme! I love it!

Never Stop Laughing

John and I recently went with some of our friends to the Oregon Coast.

Hale volunteers in the same Ministry as I do.... and boy is he funny and fun to be around!

He and his wife surprised us with a fun filled day at the Oregon coast... we went to the light house, to the aquarium (almost got eaten my sharks....) and out to a wonderful dinner!

Hale even surprised me and said he and I  were going to make bread together! (Hale has made me bread in the past that is delicious...  and of course I always ask him what his secret is...) And now I know! Not only did he teach me how to bake his special bread, but we also had a lot of "hold on, I need to catch my breath" laughs during the baking lesson!

Hale inspires me.  He loves people.  He enjoys life. And as you will see in these pictures.... he never stops laughing!

Recently the kids at youth group dressed up like what they want to be when they grow up.   That night John said to me... "Oh man, I should have dressed up like Hale!"  

That makes me smile! I think we all should want to be like Hale when we grow up. 

Never Stop Laughing

Photography in the Sunshine

Although I put my camera down most my vacation, I did take a few photos in the sun.  I like this one :)

My Little Sisters who Call Me Mom

Becca, Jenae, Olivia, Sarah and Teanna.  You are a joy in my life.  Thank you guys for being a source of encouragement, growth, love, happiness, depth and lots of time spent. 

I LOVE YOU!

You call me mom, but I'm really just your proud, big sister :)

Oh ya, and Anthony, Ben, Jeff and Kenny.... 

 You're pretty cool too:)

Make Your Feet Smile

During a photo shoot, I usually end up taking some photos of THE feet/shoes.  I love "cracking" my joke every time by saying "Okay guys, now make your feet smile!" And it works every time, because all these feet sure look happy to me!

Bare Feet

No Feet Shoes 

(These shoes had to work really hard to look happy, because there was no one in them to make their feet smile!)

Boots

Pumps

MY FAVORITE SHOES TO PHOTOGRAPH! (Sorry other shoes, but these take the cake!)

FLATS 

(Notice the stars on the shoes and the star tattoo?) 

And more boots!
