Slide adventure

She was sooo excited by going down the slide by herself!

Everyone has their first snow. It is fun to watch their playfulness in the white stuff, no matter the age!

I rented a new studio yesterday. Today I went in and played with the lights. I thought this photo of my grandson came out really nice. He ran around the studio and had a grand time.

Babies born early are still cute and lovable. You feel for them with all the tubes and sensors attached to them. This little boy was four weeks early and 4lbs 6oz.

Scared of the Rocks

The rocks were big and they went down very quickly. The little girl was petrified and did not want to move. The little boy climbed all over the rocks. This is a fun picture of emotions.

Child and the "r"

Learning to walk is fun and challenging. He had not been walking for long, but loved to do so. This "r" is at the Salt Lake City Library. I really enjoy his expression of pure joy and the colors and contrasts of the wall, tiles and the "r".

Like Father, Like Son

My oldest son loves to fish. He would fish, I would photograph and his son would play in the water. For this picture, Dad was cleaning his line and preparing the hook. Son was playing in the dirt at the water's edge. He then leaned forward and created this caricature... Like Father, Like Son.

Playing with Two Tennis Rackets

My grandson picked up both tennis rackets and played with them for a few minutes. He is cute trying to play with both of them.

Bryanna

Thomas, the Cat

Thomas was my Mom's big cat. He loved to sit on the wooden porch and look out into the field behind the house.

One Day Old...isn't he cute?!

My daughter-in-law, Holly, compiled these three photos that I took of my new grandson. She really does good work.
