Abby's Pictures on Utah Lake

New Posts

I know I have been slacking these past couple days so please forgive me (have had a busy week)... I will be back (hopefully) tonight with some challenge photo's...

Day 9

A new way of sleeping at the table.
This girl cracks me up! I was helping Rockwell with something and started calling for Cleora because she was very quiet... we all know quiet doesn't always mean peace. So I start looking for her and she's standing by the table like this...

Day 7 & 8

I don't log onto my blog as much as I should, so here is Day 7 & 8. We had our good friends Britney & Ryan come over for dinner on Friday. Soon enough (a month or so) they'll have their own little one to play with. They are so cute with my kids, and my kids love them!



Day 8
One of our favorite things to do since Aunt Abby made cheer, is going to her games... Football and now basketball! Cleora LOVES cheering with the team so I thought we'd take a picture of her together with her favorite cheerleader!


Of course we had to make cookies before the game...

Day 6

When my kids wake up the sun is shining through the windows... yes that means it's about 9-10 a.m. the first thing they want to do is watch "Hook", ummm ok?! Rockwell is so intense with the movie and well Cleora she started getting a little side track...

Day 4 & Day 5

Day 4
This is our dog Mae and our new pet Mater. Mae is so interested in Mater, but when he gets close to her she jumps up and runs by me... Pretty funny.


Day 5
Dad put up the new fan in the living room, and the small step ladder was still out. Of course Rockwell is playing trucks on it!
Black & White

Color?

Bloody Nose Day 2 & 3

Ok so I say I didn't fail this challenge just yet... So I missed day 2 but I had a great excuse... I didn't have my camera? I walked right out the door yesterday (because I was in a hurry) and skipped my bag. So this picture will count at Day 2 & 3... Maybe I'll do 31 days in this challenge.
This is typical Rockwell. He ALWAYS has a bloody nose, and a messy face! He just got done playing with his boy cousins (on my side of the family), jumping off furniture, pushing, shoving the whole 9 yards of boy stuff... After a long night of playing he is now just sitting down with dad watching a movie and here comes mr. bloody nose... funny that I caught him with the camera just as he caught his bloody nose, trying to do the "don't drip" pull thing with the lip.

30 Day Challenge

I was asked to do a 30 day challenge with my sister-in-law. The Challenge is to take a picture of my kids once a day for 30 days, in a fun, natural setting. As crazy as it sounds, my kids are my hardest subjects. I always try to get them all dressed up, hair done, cutest outfit they have, perfect background, and by this time they are exhausted, as am I. It usually ends up in a sobbing break down. So I am going to try this challenge and try to learn more natural fun poses as well as end up with happy kids and mom... Through this challenge you may only see a hands and feet, as they are extremely busy little people. Enjoy and please feel free to comment... it will only improve my photography skills...

When Cleora see's a camera she just automatically poses she has since she was an infant. Now you must understand that her poses are her very own Cleora's model pose. She may even throw in a cheer pose. This picture was taken while she was playing downstairs, she saw me out with the camera and boom... her pose.
