Some Pictures

Last week was our 4th Anniversary. Is it dumb that Anniversary #4 seems like such a big anniversary? Speaking of anniversaries, Happy Anniversary to Josh's parents: Cliff and Lee. 39 Years! I mean, 4 and 39 are very different numbers, but 4 makes me feel so...seasoned??

Anyway, my family has the tradition of taking family pictures every year (anniversary year, not necessarily calendar year) and Josh and I are continuing the tradition. Well, we barely made it this year, since we had them done ON our actual anniversary. Last year, they were done the day before our anniversary. ha ha ha. I guess that goes to show how busy life can be - or that I'm a schmuck and a procrastinator. Either one... :) Anyway, I was looking for a photographer and asked opinions from people on facebook. Since everyone these days seems to be a photographer, EVERYBODY knows a photographer. ;) Last summer, Josh's cousins Tisha, Jessica, and Tiffany, all had their family pictures taken by Liz Bowles. I thought they were fabulous pictures. I was thrilled when I found out she is a Utah Resident! Woo hoo!! Better yet, I thought she was very reasonably priced. The zinger? She could fit me in just in time for our anniversary!! I couldn't have been happier with the experience. She brought her assistant Andrea Allred with her, and they were such a fun team. They had us relaxed and laughing in no time. We drove down to Provo for the pictures, since Liz and Andrea are down in Mona, UT. The light and weather was perfect! We started our Anniversary celebrations with a bang! Without much more babbling, I'm sharing just a few of the pictures she took:

This was my Mom's favorite

The train conductor was not too thrilled that we were hanging out on his tracks...



This is one of my favorites!
Please check out more of Liz's photos here.

After our pictures, we got some donuts from the Creamery on 9th (yummm!!!!) You'll have to hear about the rest in another post! If you don't tell anyone that I took pictures of the room we stayed in, maybe I'll show them to you...
