Kaila & Co.

Taking family pictures can be extremely difficult, sometimes children just do not want their picture taken and it can be even harder dealing with a grumpy husband. Getting a good shot can be difficult with so many people, that's why it's so much easier when you know the people personally. My parents were good friends with Kaila's parents growing up, my sister Adrea and Kaila are best friends. As a little girl I absolutely adored Kaila. She's like family. So when Kaila asked me to take hers I was happy to do it, not only did this give me a chance to catch up with her, but to get to know her lovely family. Plus, everyone was happy to have their picture taken and we had fun with it.  And, I need the practice.

These were shot in Columbus, Indiana at the courthouse.

Henry at the Indy Art Museum

I went to visit my family in Indiana last week and my favorite day had to be when I took Henry, my 4 year old nephew to the Indianapolis Art Museum to take some pictures. Henry was ecstatic to go, he was more than happy to take lots of pictures and blow bubbles. In the car on the way to the museum Henry told me all the good things that was happening that day, including cool (school) and now the museum, and later Dairy Queen.

If you have ever met a 4 year old they make sure you know they are 4 years old, so one of the first things we did was take some pictures in front of the big yellow 4.

Adrea & Josh Family pictures

More family pictures! Just in case you didn't get your fill last time. These were taken for my sister and her family while visiting home a couple weeks ago. I miss them already.

These were taken in Zionsville Indiana.

Yellowstone

Though we spent most of the summer traveling through Europe, when we get home we still hadn't gotten rid of our travel fever. I've spent the last 5 years in Rexburg and never went to Yellowstone, though it's only 2 hours hours away. I decided that I couldn't leave Rexburg until I had gone, so we went with our friends Nic and Kirsten who have an amazing VW bus. It was your quintessential camping trip and it was exactly what I wanted.

I have fond memories of camping here when I was a little girl, so it was great to come back after all those years. I didn't have my digital camera so here are the holgas I took.

You can take the boy out of Idaho...

Seth and I returned to sentimental rexburg after a 3 month stay in Europe and a fortnight in Salt Lake City. We stayed with his parents, were fed daily and spoiled just a bit, we saw friends, and Seth graduated. To celebrate this and leaving the great state of Idaho we decided to take some graudation pictures in what else but a real Rexburg Idahoan field.
