Alexa and Karli: Christmas Card Time







On my days of school, I was watching the girls and we were working on a few pictures for the upcoming holiday season. Karli had stayed up til about 11 the night before watching Lilo and Stitch and just before we were to take pictures we had a complete meltdown sooooo the pictures had to wait a couple hours while Karli took a nap.. and Alexa too. Once they woke up we took pictures then ate lunch, end results are very nice!

Morgan & Mark Engagements









This is my first time doing engagement pictures and I think they turned out pretty good! It was also my first time taking pictures for people that I didn't know very well. Overall it was a good day and we got some good pictures!

The Great Migration

Every year, this is the thing I want to get a good picture of! and every year I fail to succeed at it. They turn out alright but I need more than just the Geese, maybe clouds, dramatic light, I don't know. A different angle (from above) would be amazing but nearly impossible! This is my favorite one so far.

Outside with Lexa!

I'm back at it! all the babysitting, visiting friends, hiking and taking pictures! Its wonderful! These are a few  of lexa's pictures from this past weekend. I took Karli fishing on friday and then babysat both girls on Sunday. First time in a LONG time!

Fall Snapshots

Piggg!




I don't understand why I find this interesting, but I somehow I do!



Just a HUGE catch of the day. Some how I caught a smaller one after this.

 
Only a few of these were intended to be photography pictures but some of them turned out pretty nice. Fall is  definitely my favorite season, and I'm going to go with: its because of all of the leaves and I have a "problem" with leaves. Its the season where we are constantly going, making sure we fit everything we  want to do into our day before winter. I took a best friend of mine fishing with me. We had a great time! We have a few more plans for this week to go camping and what not and we decided were too excited for it to not happen!

It's October and Brooke is back!

Good start to the new month! Today, October 1st, is my first day back after being discharged from Mayo for good! I started the day early by going out to Aunt Bonnie's (with BOTH of the famous boots) :) and fished with my new Ugly Stik. I ended up catching a 15 inch Red Horse and after that the fish just weren't biting. But I was satisfied with that catch mostly because my new rod was casting like no other! I went back up to the house a few hours later and let my pig out. He ended up literally pulling the kayaks out from underneath the deck. I cleaned his pen and picked some food from the garden for him. Before I knew it I was at a friends catching up on homework I hadn't finished in Rochester. I also got the camera out today and took a few pictures! I feel like it has been forever!

      This one may take a little bit to figure out! 
Leaf pictures are back too!
 Sometimes "fall" looks good in B&W
 The Boots
 October!
And of course the colors of fall
