Photo Challenge- A touch of sun!

http://www.iheartfaces.com/


As most of you know, I have recently started a photography business called Perrywinkle Photography. It has started to boom! I am completely booked out the rest of this year (with the exception of 2 weeks in early November that need some filling). One of my favorite sites, (http://www.iheartfaces.com/) does a weekly photo challenge. I have been debating on good edits to add to the Touch of Sun category (this is my first time entering a challenge).

Here is my gorgeous bridal with the lovely Candace :) The sun flare was 100% natural! We were at the right place at the right time and it made for a memorable shot. She was literally glowing! We had so much fun and I cannot wait to take pics of her and her sweet hubby on their wedding day.

Catch Up!

What we have been up to lately :)

Brian- working hard, not hardly working! Brian is busy at work and being a wonderful dad. He spends a lot of 1 on 1 time with the boys (which I love). He will watch them during my softball lessons, photo shoots, movie nights with friends, and while I try to make dinner at night. The other day, he took Cannon to the zoo for almost 5 hours! They had a blast! (I think Brian had as much fun as Cannon). He is also playing on a men's slow-pitch softball team.

Lauren- I do hitting lessons each week, craft daily, take pictures and do photo shoots almost every week (I am trying to get practice because I want to eventually do it professionally), cooking, spending lots of time with the boys, and playing on 2 slow-pitch teams (1 is a men's team and the other is with our church).

Cannon- LOVES to talk and play with friends. He can ride a bike and is currently in karate class 3 days a week! He is also learning how to swim and is loving the summer :) He is such a sweet boy. It is so funny to hear what excites or concerns him. He LOVES Lincoln and is really nice to him (for the most part). On the flip-side, he is really into burping and farting right now. I guess he is your typical boy :)

Lincoln-How do I describe Lincoln? Ummmm, he is BUSY. So busy, he is probably the busiest child ever born. He loves to do dangerous things. He wants to live outside 24/7 and be naked. He has such a funny personality, it is really hard to put in words and describe him. He is very intense and spirited, but super sweet and loving. You have to work really hard for him to give you the time of day. He adores Cannon. He is very strong, very fast, very coordinated and super smart. I have my hands full...

This time I PROMISE...

...that I will start blogging again. But right now- this kid--- --- has decided to wake up from a nap. When Lincoln wakes up from a nap, it usually takes him an hour to get back to his cute/normal/goofy little self and that means NO computer time for mama.

The Incredible Pizza Company

When you live in FREEZING COLD Utah, you can find yourself getting pretty repetitive with your daily outings. During the week we spend a lot of time at the Museum of Natural History, the movie, Chick-Fil-A, The Aquarium, any indoor playground or bounce place. They are great little places to spend time and get rid of cabin fever/winter blues. This weekend we wanted to test out a new activity place. We went to The Incredible Pizza Company in Draper. It was a lot of fun. They had an all you can eat buffet (which Lincoln LOVED), race cars, bumper cars, mini-bowling, mini-golf, lazer tag, video games, a playground... you name it! The ideal age for this place is probably over 6, but we had a really nice time. Here are some pics from our little outing.

Christmas 2010

As you can tell, it's kind of a resolution of mine to post more :) Here are some pics from Christmas morning. The boys had a blast, despite the fact that they were getting over colds. Brian had been up for 2 nights straight with no sleep, because he had a really bad bronchitis. He ended up going to the ER Christmas morning at 4 am. I haven't had much sleep in the past month because of colds circulating around the house. Oh well, gotta love the winter time! The boys are so lucky to have such wonderful grandparents and parents (aka- Santa) who gave them a special holiday filled with love and memories. I can't even begin to describe the love that I have for my family. We are so fortunate and blessed.
