TJ and Amber: A Preview

Picture a perfect sunday afternoon, Perfect weather, and a Perfect Couple! It is great to be a photographer under these situations! 

Amber and TJ were great enough to let me take their engagement pictures this last weekend. They came down from Idaho to get a jump on wedding plans. They look so great together and it was a lot of fun working with them! There are more to come and the pictures look great!

CARDIN FINN HUNSAKER


Cardin is in the house! I mean that literally.  

Tiffiny had her baby in May of 2009. The first nephew of the bunch! I am now an aunt times 3! He came healthy and with a full head of hair! 

Anastasia is excited to be a great big sister. I asked her if she was going to be a good one... and with a smile from ear to ear she said "Yes I am!" and then leaned in a little closer and said with a grin "I am going to be better than Ereland!" 

She cracks me up. She will be a great big sister, AND so will Ereland. 










Good Times

This was our last sunday as roommates for Winter 2009. Sad day. 

Kali Pearce, Kelly Connor, Katrina Burgon, Melissa Todd, Breanna Meldrum, Erin Jones 

Way to go R302! 



Ereland and Anastasia Birthday!

My adorable Nieces had their birthday in March. I know I am a little late at getting this up- but never late than never. 

Ereland turned 2 and Anastasia turned 4.  


















Festival of Colors


So- I had never heard of The Holi Hare Krishna Festival of Colors before coming to BYU.  I had a weird impression what a "festival of colors" was all about. This is what I have learned about the Hindu tradition. 

The Festival of Colors...

... is a hindu festival for the coming of spring. 
... starts with a large bonfire the day before called the Holika Dahan  or the death of Holika, who is a demoness that had captured young Prahlad, who escapes because of his deviortion to the God Vishnu. 
... is a festival of radiance (Teja) in the universe. 

Some of the basics. 

In Springville UT, there is a Hare Krishna Temple in which every year is thrown a large festival of colors. 

Because of the fact two large universities are about twenty minutes north, and the impressive color chalk fight that signifies spring- this becomes a LARGE attraction in Utah County. 

See for yourself.
