photo shoot!

On Sunday my parents treated us to a delicious

(I love you eggs benedict)

brunch at the Alta lodge. It's funny

that my brother is like an Alta king and

he was the only one not in attendance.

He's still in Africa so I guess he's not really missing out.

Anyway, after stuffing ourselves

we drove up to Albion Basin.

To hike? No.

To explore and study the wildlife? No.

To camp in the beautiful outdoors? No.

To have impromptu (only funny to us) photoshoots?

of course!

The funny thing is most of my family are

hikers, campers, explorers, etc.

But on this morning we lounged on some comfy

rock-seats and died of laughter at ourselves

(well maybe just my sister and me - cause we're comedians like that)

and took pictures.

After awhile it's kind of embarrassing when

rugged hikers start their climbs,

over flowing with gear and

we're posing like goofballs and getting in their way.

We had our fun

but the star of the show was Lucy -

her pictures weren't funny they were beautiful.

She is growing up right

before

my

eyes.

I'll save the joke poses for future

black-mail

(and no one else would probably even find them funny)

but I have to include this sadie-hawkins-esque

pose of Blake and me.

No, we weren't being serious and no,

we didn't coordinate.

Promise.

9 years of er...blissful marriage

this month!
