HELP

Will someone tell me how to add other peoples blogs as links? Does that even make sense :)?

Just a tip

So I decided that for my friends and family that are interested I am going to start to post a tip here and there about photography....just for fun.
Ok so todays tip direct sunlight is NEVER your friend. People believe that the lighter the area the better the picture will turn out, but this is a no no! More light means more shadows. Of course you want it to be bright outside, but you don't want them in direct sunlight. If you are taking pictures of your kids in the middle of the afternoon with the sun over your head then you want to find some shade. Or if it's a cloudy flat day...AWESOME day for pictures. Just a tip!

Powder Mountain 2010

We went to our yearly powder mountain outing again and we had a ton of fun! Maren went to ski school with her cousin and learned how to snowplow :) Taylor let us drag her around the mountain even though she was SO tired, and of course the baby didn't sleep hardly at all! My favorite part of the trip was when all 3 of my girls got up before the sun did :) and we watched the sun rise together. It probably is one of my top 5 experiences of motherhood so far!

                                        
Taylor was so tired she just wanted to lay down

Just because

I thought this saying was really cute!

So I did one...you should too :)

New Photography Website (SHAMELESS I KNOW)

My friend and I have started up a photography business and I just wanted to let you all know what my new website is...check it out!! hunterlukephotography.com Also thank you so much to all of my family and friends that have been so supportive, there is no way I would be even attempting to do this if it weren't for your support. :) xxoo Les

                         Here are just a couple of pictures I took this weekend of my cute little girls!

I remember when I was little running around my neighborhood with my shoes off and making mud pies in the curb as the water ran down the street from everyones sprinklers. I remember my dad cleaning up my dirty little hands and looking at the bottoms of my feet and telling me that I need to put shoes on when I play outside because my feet were completely black. I watch my little girls outside playing in the dirt and getting so muddy and I laugh. I hope they remember days like these and not the days that I am yelling at them not to get dirty :) I hope they thoroughly use up their childhood and I hope they look back on it as fondly as I do.  

I posted the lyrics to this country song (I know I don't listen to country, but I love this poem) because it always makes me remember what matters and how fast it'll all go by.

I can remember when you fit in the palm of my hand
Felt so good in it, no bigger than a minute
How it amazes me, you're changing with every blink
Faster than a flower blooms they grow up all too soon

So let them be little 'cause they're only that way for a while
Give them hope, give them praise, give them love every day
Let them cry, let them giggle, let them sleep in the middle
Oh just let them be little

I've never felt so much in one little tender touch
I live for those kisses, prayers and your wishes
Now that you're teaching me things only a child can see
Every night while we're on our knees all I ask is please

Let them be little 'cause they're only that way for a while
Give them hope, give them praise, give them love every day
Let them cry, let them giggle, let them sleep in the middle
Oh just let them be little

So innocent, a precious soul, you turn around
It's time to let them go

So let them be little 'cause they're only that way for a while
Give them hope, give them praise, give them love every day
Let them cry, let them giggle, let them sleep in the middle
Oh just let them be little

Let them be little 

P.S. I know this picture is blurry I did it on purpose :)

Preschool Vday party

So Maren has been asking me to come to preschool, but I have been so busy with the pregnancy and now the new baby that up until now I haven't been once this year. So with a little bit of a guilt trip, put on by my daughter, I got a baby sitter and went to the Vday party with my little girl. I brought my camera and had some fun and Maren was so cute, the whole time I was there she kept telling all of her friends that I was her mom and she would run up to me and give me a hug. I guess she's not ashamed of me yet :)

I had to crop this picture because she has no bum and can't keep her pants pulled up ever!!
