Needed a Break...went to Boise.

So, life is pretty crazy right now....so many different things going on in my business life, family life and personal life. I needed a break. Carl had a work conference in Boise this week and since they put him up in a hotel....we followed. Went swimming in the pool, sat in the hot tub (which was all of our favorite...the pool was too cold), went out to dinner (Cheesecake Factory), Cabelas (Daddy and Kya loved that...ok, ok, I like the fish tank), and we even made a trip to the Zoo. I love Zoos and Kya loves animals, not sure how Zander feels about all this yet, but he seemed to enjoy looking around.
Last weekend was my brother's open house and I just had to post this picture with EJ and his little buddy. Zander just cuddles with EJ everytime they get together....too cute.

I lucked out with a gorgeous daughter who loves the camera. As a photographer, it helps when your subject hams it up and brings some great personality. Every time I asked Kya to pose, she gave me some awesome personality


Lovin' the giraffe!
This is her face saying, "Mom, you just put me over the fence so I can go pet the giraffe". Ya, she actually told me that, a few times.


Posing with the little "hip flip". Zander is just too cute, he exudes character and personality. No need to smile here.


Givin' her mommy some lovin' now.



Not sure what this pose is?
Apparently others can't take pics and get them in focus...arrggghhh! This could have been a great picture. Sorry daddy couldn't make it to the Zoo with us.

She is so sweet with little brother.


If you know Kya, you know that she does not do slides. Some fear that she has...crazy. She saw this giraffe slide and didn't even hesitate to climb. This is one long slide....I was in shock.
Apparently, animals over power any fear this girl might have. She had a smile on her face all day, and couldn't wait to get to the next exhibit. We even went through the whole Zoo, TWICE.

Going into the giraffe's bum! That was funny.
Look how long this thing is....Go Kya!
True perspective of the giraffe's height.
This scared her. She was up against the glass and the Lion hit the window right on her face....that made her jump back about a foot.
Trying to get Zander to look....but she turns away.
Then she is looking and Zander looks down. I love taking pictures of kids, they make me laugh.
Isn't that the most handsome little Tiger Tamer you've ever seen? He was just glad to get out of the stroller and do what Kya was doing.

LA Wedding Bliss (Picture Overload)

So a week ago I went to LA with my parents and all my sisters (with some hubbies and babies). Most of us drove and it was a long drive.
EJ and Ashley were sealed in the LA Temple on September 25, 2009. What a beautiful temple, and a fabulous ceremony performed by EJ senior (our grandpa).
Here's the happy couple coming out of the temple.


Had to get mom all dolled up for pics at the temple.

Awwwww!


Now that is one good lookin' man. Happy Birthday, today, Dad!



You can see where my Dad's attention is.....so sweet.
Mom and Dad and all there girls...the originals. Now we actually have a "Morgan" girl back in the family. Thanks Ashley for keeping one of us a Morgan...the rest of us ditched with married names.

Grandpa EJ and Grandma Mary

Ya for a cute brother.

To an awesome life together.....go have a blast.
