It's a Small World (Emily)

So we've all done it before....blogstocking, right?? And aren't we usually glad we did it? We often find some really cool blogs that have great ideas and in my case you run into friends you haven't seen in years. Well I was so happy to find my friend that I hadn't seen since I was 16. This is her and her cute family.

Well after scrolling down her blog and catching up on what she had been up to for the past 16 years, I noticed some familiar faces. It just so happens that my friend married my neighbors brother! My friend and her family live in California, and here is my neighbor and their cute family here in Utah.

I was so grateful that they wanted me to take their family pictures. They were all up here for a family get together. Here is the whole bunch:

So if you have that urge to blogstock...go ahead, don't feel guilty. Great things can come out of it!

Why I love Taking Pictures

My Husband and 4 children are the most precious people to me in the whole world! I find myself wondering, how on earth have I been so blessed to have a wonderful marriage and close to perfect children. We have a great life. We try to take advantage of every day. We try to capture memories as our children seem to grow over night. Each one of them are unique, and each have their own little personalities and traits that make them beautiful. Pictures help me remember where we've been and what we've learned. Pictures help tell the story of life, love, and learning. One day when they are my age, I'll be able to look back and remember with pictures how they wrinkled their noses, blew kisses, played in the mud, painted on the walls, and grew up over night.
