Welcome to the world Kohen Daniel!

My sister had her 5th baby this afternoon. Kohen Daniel arrived around 4:00 this afternoon weighing in at 7lbs 4 oz. He is a cutie!!! I absolutely love black and white pictures, but black and white newborn pictures are my FAVORITE!!! Here are just a few of the 200 shots that I got of him through the window when he was brought into the nursery. I can't wait to go back and actually get to hold him tomorrow!

The whole gang! I love the look on Karson and Kamden's face in this picture!!!

They crack me up!

Family Camping Trip (just not with our family)

Back in April, my good friend Carrie asked if we wanted to plan a camping trip with her family in October. Since Matt and I are all about camping, we quickly booked us a site. So, for 7 months now, this camping trip with "The Doker's" has been on our calendar. We had numerous conversations about the trip and how much fun we were going to have. But it wasn't until last week that I realized that her entire family, which consisted her mom, dad, 3 sisters, their husbands, and all of their kids, were coming! Carrie felt terrible that we didn't realize that this was their "Family Campout." Matt and I just laughed about it and joined right in with the "family" this weekend. We had an absolute BLAST! They were so much fun and by the end of the weekend, they said we felt like their "in-laws!" Here are some shots from our weekend! I am going to be taking family pictures of this crew in a couple of weeks, so you will be seeing many more shots of them!!

Playing a little badmitten!

I love this girl! Karis is such a doll!


What a cutie! You just want to pinch his little cheeks!

Cabe got his fishing line stuck in the tree.

So he called Matt to the rescue.

That didn't work so well!

Just a little while later, they dared Matt to try to walk across this log and of course.....he tried!

That didn't work so well either!

Happy 25th Anniversary!

We got to celebrate 25 years of marriage with my cousin Daryl and his wife Vicky this weekend! This is the mother and father of the groom at the wedding reception that I photographed 2 weekends ago. They have just been party animals lately! Twenty-five years in something to celebrate! Congratulations you two!!

I have some weird obsession with photographing food! All of the colors just stand out and make i look so pretty in pictures!

She had everything coordniated incredbily well! All of the colors and treats, but especially the CAKE, fit the theme perfectly! Happy birthday little man!!!
