Prez Prom 2013

My little sister went to her last Prom last weekend, and I got to grab some shots of her & her date.

I loved this simple aqua dress she borrowed from a friend.

Since my parents were out of town Jer had to help put on her date's flower.

Isn't she just gorgeous!?

Cheer Competition

A couple weeks back we did a girls trip to Las Vegas for my little sisters cheer competition. One of the highlights was visiting my cute grandparents in St George. They loved Kingsley & he of course loved them!

Trekking to Las Vegas with just my mom and sister turned out to be more difficult than we expected. My mother and I are not very good with directions, and we were a little nervous without my dad or Jeremy to lead the way. That dang iphone isn't ALWAYS correct and Vegas traffic can be a mess! Besides the stress of trying to find where we needed to go, it was nice to spend some quality time just the ladies.

(Well & King of course :))

Apparently these were the only pictures I took of King roaming around in our hotel room

Such a handsome guy this one.

We stayed at the wonderful Red Rock Hotel, and Prezley did awesome as usual. She is much more talented than I ever was that's for sure.

Ella's Newborns!!

I am SOOOO excited to show you my very first newborns!!!

 I was so ecstatic when my cousin Brooke asked me to get some pictures of her brand new baby girl Ella! Everything really worked out amazingly as Brooke had a million perfect props, & little Ella must have known I was an amateur because she was seriously such an angel!!

So without further adieu I proudly present..

I made this little banner with gold craft paper & pink yarn as well as the cute headband Ella is wearing to match. maybe I will post the tutorial later.

Isn't she the sweetest?!

How precious is her little smile here?

Brooke made the cute green yarn E as well as her matching headband :)

I love this one with the stuffed bunny!

Since Brooke lives so close to my moms I came over two different days to make sure we got all the shots we wanted. When Ella was feeding or being fussy I took some pictures of her older sister Emmerson. Seriously she is the most photogenic little girl ever with her huge eyes & long eye lashes!

Here is a little peak into Ella's nursery

Brooke made this cute canvas by placing on stickers, spray painting it gold, then pulled the stickers off and Viola!! Sweet & Simple.

Sisters :)

How tiny does she look in her dad's hands? He thought he might die when she peed on him :) haha

I absolutely love these ones where we used Brooke's hand painted chevron canvas as the background!

Here Emmerson was waiting very patiently for baby sister to be ready so we could take their pictures together. :) She really was so good & sweet. Most 3 year olds would not last half as long as she did!

I couldn't believe how adorable these shots turned out of the two together!

 I know these two are similar but I just couldn't choose between her soft smile or serious face!

When Emmerson said "I think I need a pillow under my head mom". Too cute :)

And last but not least the money shot! This is not my favorite pose or anything, but seems to be a newborn staple picture so I at least wanted to try it.. I do have to say it is very difficult to get, and her father totally felt like we were torturing her..

but hey at least we got it :)

So sorry for the million pictures, but I just had such a hard time narrowing them down! Thanks again Brooke for all your help, your girls are the sweetest. Taking newborns may be my new favorite hobby!
