In your shoes!


While my family was on our little adventure this summer, we decided to take the opportunity and get our pictures taken by a photographer I love in Utah, Anna Jones with Indie Art Photography. I love our photos and loved working with her! Thank you Anna! Go take a look at a few of the pics on her blog.

Backyard in bloom

I planted some Bluebonnets in my yard this year and they are so gorgeous right now! I am a little confused though because none of them are actually blue, each plant is a very different color of purple. I probably love them even more because of it though!



If you enjoy gardening or just being in nature as much as I do, go check out the blog Backyard Farming. I just love all the beautiful photos and useful information they share!

get to know me: hobbies



I love to sew! One of my favorite hobbies, when I get a spare minute, is to bust out a creation on the sewing machine! The last few years that has mostly consisted of things having to do with babies or small children, and I love them! They are so fun to design and create! The diaper bag above was made a few weeks ago for my sister to gift to her sister-in-law for her new baby. I loved it and think I might make a matching one for myself :)

favorite things to do together

I have a very special get-to-know-you questionaire that I have my couples fill out before we do an engagement session. It helps me to find out more about them as individuals and as a couple so that we can come up with a perfect location for their portraits and I can be more connected to them for their wedding. It helps to be more like a good old friend when I come to the wedding, than just someone that has a big old camera pointed at them for the entire day :)
I thought it might be fun to let all of you blog readers get to know me and my awesome hubby, Heath, a little better and answer some of these questions about ourselves. So, here is the first question:

What are your 3 favorite things to do together as a couple?

1) We love to go out to eat.
I'm not talking Mickey D's, although that would be our kiddo's first choice, we like to go someplace nice and romantic with dim lights and a quiet atmosphere. That doesn't happen all to often, but on occasion we get out by ourselves and enjoy adult conversation :) We most recently were so lucky as to enjoy fine dining at Ruth's Chris Steakhouse here in Houston It was absolutely delicious and everyone should go there at least once!

2) We love to snuggle up after the kids go to bed and watch a movie together.
This often involves one of our guilty pleasures, Cold Stone Ice Cream. You have got to try them out and get a Mud Pie Mojo with chocolate ice cream instead of the coffee. It is our favorite!

3) We love playing games together. Some of our favorites to play with just the two of us are: Backgammon, Yahtzee and Jenga. Here is an old shot of us that my roommate took in college of Heath and I playing Jenga together when we were dating.



There ya go, a few of our faves. Leave me a comment and tell us about some of yours.
