Fair Photo Entries

Most people who read my blog (my sister, maybe my mommy??) already know I submitted some photos to the fair again this year. It turned out pretty well, despite the fact that I waited until last minute and didn't get them matted very well, again. Here are the 10 photos I submitted:

This is one of a series of three photos that were entered together, of Wyatt and Tait on the tube. I couldn't get over the expressions on their faces in this one, so I followed it up with crazy photos of them getting buried in water. Most of these have been posted from the 4th of July, so I won't put them all on here.

This is Pam, I think she was 8 months preggo? And Jesse, listening for his baby brother Dallas. He must be one heck of a cute kid, cause this photo won 1st place in the Parent/Child category. YEAH!! I love blue ribbons...

Beautiful Makenzi...she's only 13, but we entered this in the Portrait/Woman category.

Julia Davis park in Boise.

My Aedan, playing in the sand in Oregon. Can't believe this one got nothing, I absolutely love it!

Aedan's feet, the same day as the last photo and the same beach. This one got a 2nd place ribbon in the body parts category.

This is the falls on Rogue River, near Union Creek. I blogged about this one too...

The Oregon coast...

Kylee, jumping in puddles at the park. This one got an honorable mention (pink ribbon) in the body parts category. Kylee thought she scored big when she saw the pink ribbon, instead of a blue. :-)

Fun Stuff

Last weekend our neighbor, Kaili (yep, sounds just like my Kylee), asked me to do her hair for her homecoming dance. Not only did I do about a million ringlets in her gorgeous blonde hair but I ended up waiting for her boyfriend to come so I could take some photos. For having a nearly dead battery, nearly no light, and no time to plan, I thought we did pretty well. Thanks, Kaili, for letting me come have some fun!

Some of these photos have a bit of crazy editing going on...let me know if you like or dislike!







With some mishaps during their day date, we ended up being pretty far behind schedule on getting them out the door to dinner. Sadly, by the time Justin made it to pick Kaili up, the light was almost gone and I didn't get hardly any good photos of the two of them. We tried it again the next morning outside the church, and the light was better but the wind was impossible! This was one of my favorites from Sunday. I love her crazy hair and their happy smiles...
