Family Outing

Saturday we went up to Diamond Fork and did some shooting with Dave's new guns.  It was great fun!  The girls enjoyed using the BB gun to target shoot, and the grown ups enjoyed shooting clay pigeons and targets.  Eric was a good sport and let me do a little shooting before we retired to watch from the warm van.






Don't worry, I only had him on my back when I tried out the BB gun.  Doesn't he look like he's having a great time!

My Little Mover

Eric has just about mastered the art of crawling.  He moves about 2 "steps" and then stops, but he's getting so close!  He is growing so fast!  The cutest thing is how much he loves his sisters.  They are so good with him, and love making him laugh.



And more playing with my camera and photoshop...

Bored...and Progress

Usually I'm not so bored during the weekends, but track has started so Dave was gone a lot of the time, and I was bored.  When Eric went down for his nap, I took my camera in the backyard to play.  They definitely aren't perfect, but I had fun playing with Photoshop.







In other exciting news, Eric is both sleeping through the night now, and eating baby food like a pro.  Way to go my little man!  Sometimes we both end up looking like this...

Shooting with Becky

Saturday I went out on with Becky Rockwood to learn a little more about my camera and take some pictures.  Though it was a little cold, I had a great time and can't wait to go out shooting again.  Here are some of my pictures from our snowy Saturday shoot.








Family Pictures

On our snowy shoot, Becky showed me some great places to take portraits.  I've been wanting to get a family picture taken, and since I got a tripod and remote clicker for Christmas, decided I could do it myself.  The girls had a great time taking pictures and asked when we could do it again.  I'm happy with how they turned out, except that Eric isn't really looking at the camera in any of them.  I didn't anticipate the fact that a lone camera without a person behind it wouldn't be appealing to a baby. Next time...

We were loading back up in the car because everyone was cold, but Brinn wanted her picture taken with the chains. :)
