Just for fun today because the colors of spring are brightening my spirits and this collage brings a smile to my face! 🙂

Spring is in the air and nothing says it better than a day of dancing with bubbles… even if you’re 9 years old! 🙂  We spent a few moments in the yard today after the snow finally melted.  We all needed to stretch our legs and somehow remind mother nature that it’s supposed to be warm and sunny…. and so out came the bubbles and all three of my little ones danced around while I went right on snapping away.  Pictured is my oldest, Gracie.  I’m such a lucky mom!

An impromptu shoot along a favorite local trail left me with some ‘oh so fun’ photographs that I just had to share.  It’s just how I feel about spring and summer being right around the corner! 🙂

Here’s part 2 of this darling little 6 month old’s photo shoot .  What a gem!

Just a few wedding favorites to tide me over till the warm weather makes it way back to Utah.  I can’t wait for the sun, the flowers and all things green and lovely! 🙂  Here’s to summertime.

This handsome little fella is such a charmer, believe me!  In fact, within the first few moments of arriving to photograph him, he sweetly leaned over from his momma’s arms to let me hold him.  I literally melted right there and the rest of the afternoon was just a dream.  Isn’t window light so beautiful and little Owen soooo handsome? 🙂

Babies are so fun at 6 months; they’ll smile at anyone and have you making a fool of yourself just moments after meeting them.  I had to capture these wide eyes and big old smile before this little guy sprouts his teeth.  Isn’t he great!? 🙂

I just happen to love this family and that makes it even better when I get to capture them for a family portrait.  They are so great and down to earth.  Their oldest son is headed out for a 2 year, LDS mission to Germany and they wanted to get some family photos before he was off.  Enjoy!

Can you get a more scrumptious mix of mom and dad than this cute little man?  I could easily have spent the whole afternoon just following him around with my camera… although I’m sure he might not agree with the idea. 🙂  I just happen to love these guys because they are family and we had just a few minutes to capture them… one piano bench, some beautiful window light, 10 minutes of shooting and wa-la, family photos to hold them over till the new addition arrives in a few months.  Enjoy and best wishes with the baby!

Thinking about a trip to Disneyland….. who wouldn’t after magical photos like these.  Doesn’t it make you want to just pack your bags and head straight to California? Man, what cute kids!!! 🙂
