A new niece!

Well, my brother has a new daughter! She was born today at 4:51 pm. Reddish hair and healthy. She is the youngest of four,the third daughter for Matt. Congratulations!

Holy Macaroni and Cheese!!

Is this month passing by too quickly for anyone else? I can hardly believe that we have Winter Break in two weeks! Of course, I am no knocking it, but holy macaroni and cheese! I have so much to do!!

We are getting ready for another photo shoot. I think that the weekends for the next few weeks are totally photo filled adventures! Between family photos, head shots, and a wedding, whew! I am already tired! But it is good to see Gailon doing something that he enjoys and is good at.

Last night we took photos for an Institute dance at Cal State L.A. Andrew asked Gailon and of course he jumped at the opportunity. We had fun trying out some new equipment. Some of the couples were very creative in their poses, which made it fun for us. Many just wanted the traditional dance photo. All in all it was fun and a good experience for Gailon.

Today we have two photo shoots and then Gailon will have to get to work on all the fun photoshop stuff. He is going to show me how to do all the things he does, that way I can assist a bit more.

I am still working on our Christmas cards. I may actually get one out this year! I have never been the "family letter, Christmas photo and card" kinda gal. But I figure, maybe I should. So, I am still making an attempt.

Happy Thanksgiving!

What a great time we had this Thanksgiving! We were able to take a trip out to Utah and visit. While we were there, we also had the wonderful opportunity to take some fantastic family photos for the Anderson, Treto, and Adam families, as well as Megan and her mom.

Gailon's photography business has been keeping him busy, now if he would only charge! It is a great way for him to keep up his photography skills as well as put the studio equipment to good use. As soon as the pictures are uploaded to his computer and fussed with a bit, I will post some here.

It was so fantabulous to be on a mini vacation, to see friends, and enjoy the beauty that surrounds us.

Here we are!

Here we are, almost five years ago! My, how time flies when you are having fun.

I was doing some thinking about how lucky I am and how I have been influenced by so many great people. Gailon truly has been an incredible influence in my life.

I guess that is why I love him so much!!!

Here we go!

So, I am going to go out on limb and try this blogging thing. Gailon wants to set up our family blog here, so...we're off!!
