Music in the Park

While we were in OKC they have a free music in the park every Sunday. We only went once, but it was great (and sooo hot!).  Here are my last pics from OKC.



 These plants are so pretty. I wonder if they're related to artichokes.









 I got so tan this summer, and sadly Joe's feet did not :)









This was the musician, he was really good. He is holding a harp guitar and said that each one is custom made to fit the player.









 There was a big skyscraper right by this little park and as I looked around I would see a bunch of people staring up at it.









 The architecture and landscaping were so beautiful! I loved it.









 I enjoy looking around at other people and including them in my life, even for just a moment.









 As we were walking back to the car I saw this parot and could not resist taking a picture. I asked the owner (who looked like he was on drugs...) if it was alright and he grudgingly said yes. I love it!









 Ok so this was not in the park but we babysat this adorable puppy named Roxy and Joe took these.

Texas Fun!

I visited my family in Texas recently. Here are just a few photos I took of them! I love them so much. I am so blessed to have them as part of my family.






 Chappy and Caroline








 These are all the boys!













Cute little David! He really didn't want me to take photos of him after the first 10 minutes, but when he put these flowers on his fingers he was so happy!












 This is everyone! Such a happy family!












All the beautiful girls!













 It was such a beautiful day (and hot!) I love bridges :)












 Hehehe FEET! I love how you can tell who all of the feet belong to 
(if you know the family of course).










Yay! Here are all the kids together with their beautiful happy faces!












These people are some of my heroes! They are so kind, generous, loving, and beautiful too!












 Caroline is so adorable! She has the hugest smile!













I love how they all stuck their tongues out when I told them to make a funny face!





I'm going back to Utah for school in a week so I don't know how much photography I will be able to do, but I hope I'll be able to do Some and share it with you!

Baby Bennett

This little guy is two weeks old! He was so good even though we were jostling him around during his nap time :)  Some day I'll figure out all the baby photography tricks, because believe me positioning them is tough!!!



If you're wondering what is on his finger, it's a blood blister. He made a habbit of sucking on his finger while in utero and came out with the blood blister when he was born!






























Hehe Toes!









 This was the only picture he opened his eyes for!!



















I love the little shoes and his scrunched up face!






















I hope you enjoyed baby Bennett! He's a sweet baby.

Fun Stumbleupon Finds

Here is a fun link. You can draw pictures and it makes a spiderweb effect. Try it out.

This is a cool video of drawings of Parkour. According oto Wikipedia: Parkour (sometimes abbreviated PK) is a discipline that deals with ways to get from one place to another. Parkour is non competitive. Originating in France, its main purpose is to traverse mainly urban landscapes by running, climbing and jumping. Participants move along a route, attempting to navigate obstacles in the most efficient way possible, using only their bodies. Skills such as vaulting, rolling, swinging and wall scaling are employed. Parkour can be practiced anywhere, but areas dense with obstacles are preferable. 
If you saw Casino Royale, this amazing chase scene ws done Parkour style :)

This is a 4 and a half minute video of a guy painting a forest and it's pretty cool. At the end when everything came together I was like WOAH. Ya know if you like watching people paint.

These pictures Totally cracked me up! They took inanimate objects and made them look like they are doing funny things.

And here is a tutorial for you crafty people. These bookmarks are soo cute!! (And I don't usually like bookmarks. Maybe I would use one if I had made this.)


Hope you liked my stumbleupon finds :)

OKC Kid's Photo Shoot #3 of 3

Here is the last of the Oklahoma City Kid Photo Shoot! I hope you like them.
They were so fun to take and edit!



All of these babies are hilarious!









Toes!!!









I like this soft picture of Faith. She looks like an angel.










In this picture I wanted to wash out a lot of it to bring attention to those big beautiful eyes!!! I love it!









Ohhh, some photos just look better in black and white. This is one where you see it and your eyes pop out! Harper is beeeaaautiful!








I think Janice's expression here is priceless! She's been smiling so long it's turned into a grimace. Doesn't she remind you of Shirley Temple here?








Classic. I Love how all the kids are doing their own thing. There are so many  little things that makes this photo funny!








I look a bunch of shots of the kids sitting on the bricks and this was too funny! I love the little story tells! I crack up every time I look at it.








Mariah is just such a good subject!



















This is Faith and her sister Mercedes' feet. I wanted to show the progression of a picture, not just as the photo itself fades through time but also that time of life and the memory of it.









This is Summer with her two girls. They did NOT want to sit still, but that just makes the photo more representative of real life!


Thank you to all the ladies and their kids for letting me take photos of all of you! I truly enjoyed it!

OKC Kid Pics #2

Here are a few more pics. I'm still not done with them all but hopefully you'll forgive me when you see what I've done.




Cute Emily! She liked the bubbles!







And so did Jovie!







Braylee is so funny!









I think Jovie was actually crying in this picture but it kind of looks like she's laughing!!








Oh Mariah, She always has the most expressive face. I love it!









Okie Dokie... This is the first collage of everyone.









And this is the second collage. I hope you like it. I took a long time! It was something new and interesting to try, so even if it is kind of strange it was worth it!
