dancing. fun.

Liberty and Nick have been so wonderful to spend time with.  One of the reasons that we connected so quickly was because Liberty is an artist.  She wanted art for her wedding and we had fun talking about the essence of her wedding day and the excitement of ideas.  

We met up with Liberty while she was getting her hair done by Nick's mom.  As soon as she was ready we went with her to meet up with Nick so they could have a quiet lunch together at Olive Garden before the day got going with all of the festivities.

Liberty and Nick's wedding was so fun!  Liberty had Polynesian dancers that danced traditional dances and as they danced everyone threw money at them, put money on them, or put it at their feet.  They had colorful dresses and beautiful dances.  Everyone really had a great time showering them with money.  At the end of the night the dancers counted the money and delivered it to Liberty.  She was completely surprised by the amount that her guests had so generously given. 

We also did a little paint with light on the last image...

great. LIFE.

Every time I get to see the Framptons I love it.  They are such a wonderful family.  I am so grateful that I’ve gotten to see Ashlun as he has grown over the last two and a half years.  It amazes me how quickly life changes and how dramatically kids change seeing them from one time to the next.  Now, Ashlun has a very sweet little sister.

 

I was so excited to hear that Stacey had had a little girl and was so looking forward to meeting her.  When  I arrived Ashlun showed me all the latest and greatest of what he could do and his favorite toys.  Taylor was so sweet and I just love the way their family is patient and kind to each other.  Taylor is so happy and smiles so much already.  She just loves her parents and you can tell they are totally smitten with her.  It’s always wonderful to see Stacey and Kent.

 

Thank you!

 

fun. LIFE.

together.

I met Freda a couple of years ago at a wedding...Ticey's wedding.   We hit it off right away.  Freda is so fun to hang out with and I have loved hearing her take on so many things that have to do with weddings and life. 

Matt and Freda each have a little girl and they are both excited to become sisters.  We definitely wanted to get some pictures to capture the sweetness of these two families coming together in marriage.  Before we met up with the girls we headed out to the Farmer's Market in downtown Salt Lake.  What a great market!  If you haven't been there you totally need to go...it's every Saturday morning....

When we arrived to hang out with the girls we went to the neighbors to check out their backyard...there were also popsicles!  Freda and Matt also told me that there was a path up in the mountains that they like to walk on together.  We got up to Silver Lake and there was still snow on the ground with a really cool pathway going through the lake and reeds.  We had fun trying to make sure we didn't fall through the snow!

fun. LIFE.

grammy.

It has been quite a while since I've seen my Grandma.  We saw her at my sister's wedding a couple of years ago.  I love that we got to go through Indiana so that we could see her.  When we found out we were moving our number one stop we wanted to make was to see my Grandma.  We wanted our kids to have some time with her and talk with her.

I love seeing Grammy Louise (that's what my kids call her...).  she says what's on her mind and you never wonder if she's holding anything back.  I wish we could have had some more time with her.  Hopefully, now that we're out this direction we'll get to see her more often.

**with gas going nuts and how many times we stopped for it...I had to have a picture! **

sweet. LIFE.
