This was my daughter's first time in a kayak. My son just finished stuffing her into the kayak, gave her a push and was getting into his. My daughter seems to be musing about the wonders ahead while waiting for him to catch up.

Getting ready for Christmas like....Chop chop!! ???

We live on a Wheat Farm in Central Utah. The only neighbor's we have are my Husband's Parents. I often watch my kids walking to their "Grandmother's House and thinking to myself how lucky we are to live so close. As I was walking behind my little boy I watched him as he made sure to walk in the fresh deep untouched snow. I loved how much was enjoying every step he took! I took this on December 16,2015 a couple days after we had a pretty nice snow storm. Little boys and Fresh snow--it doesn't get any better than that!

My beautiful daughter whose birthday is in December and this is her Senior year of high school. So we took some snow senior pictures

Christmas tree shopping with my family.

After 30 minutes of trying this is the best we could do !! Haha ?❤️ Merry Christmas from Logan Carson and Lucas !!

This little one stole my heart. She made it known that she wanted nothing to do with Santa..  her personality and independent spirit shines though in this one!

I took this photo in a snowstorm. This sweet 10 week old puppy wasn't sure how he felt about his first snow.

This picture is so meaningful to me because it has always been so hard to get all my children in a photograph together. For a moment they forgot that they nit pick each other and sat close and gave me the best Christmas gift ever. I will never forget this moment. So fleeting but so worth it.

This photo is special to me because it is my nephew making one of his many handsome little expressions. I took it while trying to get photos for Christmas cards.

I took this photo during our church Christmas program. I think it captures the beauty of innocence in a child and is full of holiday spirit.

My grandson, while looking for the perfect Christmas tree, kept us entertained with his version of holiday carols.

Took this Dec 8th 2012 when my family came to visit me in Ponce Inlet FL. Just moved here. It happen to be 80 the weekend they were here. So we went to play on the beach. So funny it was Dec and we are on the beach.

This pic of my grandkids with Santa is just priceless. It was taken at South Hills Village, Pgh PA, 12/15/14. Who doesn't think this is hysterical?!

Lucy recently joined our family and has added a great deal of love (and curiosity) to our home. While she was away having her spay surgery, we decided to put up our Christmas tree. Within hours of returning home, she made it her own personal playground. We're trying to deter too much activity, but she insists she's just fine! I'm surprised she sat still long enough for this picture, but I'm glad she did. IT captures her personality perfectly! We're happy to share our holiday spirit with you.

Our daughter, Alexandria, 3, taken in our house after we had decoarated the tree. She was so excited!

I was at an outdoor Christmas festival when a mom put her child down next to a Christmas tree exhibit to take his picture. I don't think she realized he was still sleeping. Behind her I snapped this shot right before he awoke. It was all sugar plums!

My dog Kayleigh is all ready for Santa coming

Mimi and her granddaughter at Christmas tree. I snapped this in a moment and what classic beauty!

My daughter talking to Santa. I loved that instead of asking her what she wanted, he told her to remember that she can do anything she wants to in life. 

My sweet girl visiting with Santa 2017

Our granddaughter was always so scared of Santa. So he was going to ease in from behind her and a catch hit him in his back and he groaned and she turn and Shelia snapped the picture just in time. My all time favorite. Our Santa (very dear friend) passed away a couple of years ago so we cherish the pictures.

My son, Jacob sharing a beautiful moment with this truly compassionate, Santa. Santa is a retired Special Education Teacher, that has the patients of a Saint, with every child. This photo was taken at Alton Square Mall, in Alton, Illinois on December 16, 2013.

This picture was taken on December 11, 2012 while the baby was napping near our Christmas Tree. As I was shooting the picture, it reminded me of a portion of The Night Before Christmas, "as dreams of sugarplums danced in their heads"!

Sophie, the Pug, was just thrilled with the holiday!

My husband, Jonathan, is in the army and this month we have been stationed in Alaska. It’s the first time we live somewhere with snow and all that the cold brings with it. Being from the island of Puerto Rico this weather and lifestyle is completely different of what we are used to. So we have set our minds to make the best of this experience and learn all we can! 

Here is our baby boy enjoying the snow for the first time ❄️?

An amazing trip to NYC with my love! #christmasinNYC

Winter is here and children are having fun sleighing in the snow in our neighborhood. 

Baby's first snow in Portland, OR. We are not used to snow so the whole city shuts down with even the lightest dusting. We took advantage of this and cozied up at home after discovering this fluffy cold white stuff! 

Taken at Mt. Rose Ski Tahoe on a beautiful sunny and warm winter day.
