turning 1!

last saturday i got to meet the sweetest 1 year old. i got to spend some time at his birthday party and just take pictures. i loved that he let me in to his world and let me celebrate with him, he was sooo sweet holding my hand and playing with me (okay so he was this sweet with everyone). the most friendly little boy.

here's a very few pictures from his party.

happy birthday ashleigh! finally.

we had a pretty casual day. i opened (i mean helped ashleigh open) her present(s) this morning. we got her the dang cutest doll house from fisher price. we meaning my mother-in-law and grandmother-in-law. there's no way i could've gotten her as awesome of a present without them.

we also got a few accessories and a car. elijah played with the car most of the day. and ashleigh tried to climb the stairs, go down the slide, and use the potty, sit in the car, eat the food...you get the point. but they love it! and i love it!

then we went to lunch with dad.






came home went for a walk in the wind and cold (i know a little crazy, but after that lunch i needed it). then dad had church meetings tonight so we spent the evening with grandma rasband. it was awesome to get all that attention and be in a warm house with a wonderful warm fire. i love me a woodburning stove! and a hot tub (which ashleigh is crazy in the water)

this is how i fear 2 will be. a fast blur. (this is ashleigh running away from me earlier when i tried to take her picture)


she's asleep now, and i'd love nothing more than to sneak in a take a picture of how sweet she can be, but i don't want to wake her up and hear her ask me to lay down by her. i love how big she acts, but when i hold her and cuddle with her i can't help but look at how little she really is. happy birthday sweet ashleigh.

by the way do you notice a change in picture quality? i got my camera in july of 07, the best present ever!

ashleigh birthday part 2

this is my ode to asheligh. elijah has a scrapbook with a page for everyone month. starting at birth and ending at one year. ashleigh has nothing. and she loves looking a elijah's book. i'm a bad mom. i've been meaning to make her a little photo book (she has tons of pictures, she's pretty cute you have to admit)


these were before i had my camera but luckily my sister had a camera and got some great pictures of ashleigh.

wilson family

bio park, 3pm on a beautiful and mostly warm fall day. leaves all over the grass and some beautiful colors still on the tress makes for a perfect photo shoot. and don't forget a very silly and adorable family.
