Think About the Candy!

Yes, I resorted to shamelessly bribing my Iris and Owen to stay still during our amateur family photo session.  I went from one candy up to three candies.  They certainly know how to hold out...

Nice gangsta pose, Owen!

 

It's a trick getting everyone to look up at the camera, much less smile!  As you can see, Gabriel wouldn't have any of it.  At least it's a great hair shot for the boy!

 

I love my family!

Of course I'm totally biased,
but these are some beautiful kids!

Count me as one proud mama
who marvels everyday that I have such
choice spirits in my home.

Are we not blessed?

There was never a child so lovely
but his mother was glad to get him to sleep.
Ralph Waldo Emerson

Even when freshly washed and
relieved of all obvious confections,
children tend to be sticky.
Fran Lebowitz

There are only two things a child will share willingly -
communicable diseases and his mother's age.
Benjamin Spock

It is easier to build strong children
than to repair broken men.
Frederick Douglass

You are worried about seeing him
spend his early years in doing nothing.
What?
Is it nothing to be happy?
Nothing to skip, play, and run around all day long?
Never in his life will he be so busy again.
Jean-Jacques Rousseau, Emile, 1762

Sacramento Temple Photo Shoot

Is there a more a more beautiful spot to take pictures than on the grounds of the temple?

No matter the season, the temple is always a little piece of heaven on earth.

If you've never been but would like to go, let us know and we'd be happy to take you!
