Andrea and Brandon

I never posted any of the pictures I took of my sister-in-law and her fiance (now husband) Brandon. I took these forever ago when we were up in Utah for Aaron's wedding (Jared's brother).
We found this old warehouse and I thought it would a fun place to start. It was so stinky though. Not sure exactly what the smell was but it was nasty. We thought it was just an abandoned warehouse, but the owners pulled up to see what we were doing. Apparently they had had some animals rights protesters giving them trouble (it was actually a plant that made some sort of animal food). Once we told them we were just there for pictures the guy was super nice and drove us out to the cutest old house and barn.
Then we ended at a little outdoor shopping center. I wish we lived in Utah--there are so many fun places to take pictures (even if they are stinky).

Andrea and Brandon are such a great couple.
It was a fun night.









And now they are married! Just a few quick shots from the wedding.

Audrie

Last week some of our best friends ever came for a visit. Jen and I have known each other since I was, gosh, maybe 8 and ever since then we have referred to ourselves as cousins (my aunt married her uncle). Bruce and Jen were also at BYU the same time we were and we all became really, really good friends. Every Saturday night we knew we were hanging out and doing something together. So Jared and I were thrilled when they decided to drive up from AZ and spend a few days with us. Jen is a great photographer--she taught me a ton while she was here and we totally used her gorgeous daughter Audrie as our little model while trying to figure things out.

And my sister Jen just designed and sent over my logo--I love it! She is super talented--I just tell her what I want and she makes it happen. Thanks Jen!




Eloise and James

Wow it has taken me a while to get caught up from Seattle. We got home and two days later our dear friends came for a visit (which I will post about later). I am feeling much more caught up today and really wanted to post a few more of Eloise and big brother James.
Cute little smile

Eloise

Oh. my. goodness. Eloise, not only are you so, so beautiful, you were also so easy to photograph, it isn't even funny. I took a ton of pictures and we just kept moving her from one thing to the next--It was great chatting with Cassidy also (who happens to be my awesome visiting teacher). I have a ton more to edit but I had to post a few before we leave for Seattle in 2 days because I just couldn't stand how cute she is!

And this bonnet was my mom's when she was a baby. Oh, I love it.

I mean, is she not the cutest baby? And her hair! I love it.
