More from the Festival

Moose Droppings Festival

Moose Droppings Festival, originally uploaded by Katie Cannon.

Over the weekend we drove out to Talkeetna for the Moose Droppings Festival and Steven's softball tournament. We got there to late to play in the morning game so we watched the parade and looked around at the booths. I stood in line for about 20 mins at the only working ATM in town to get enough money to buy an ice cream. As we were walking around we saw a group of friends from Church and other softball players we knew from Wasilla. Mainly we were waiting to see when the next game was. We finally found out it wasn't going to be until 8 pm so we looked at each other and said "Well let's go home." So we loaded up Cruz, the stroller, several bags of supplies, our jackets (even though it was almost 90*), the bat bag and ourselves and high tailed it back to Palmer. We had fun and Steven's team ended up winning the tournament the next day.

I'll post some more pictures later and if you want to see my flickr pictures I thing you can just click on the photo above and it should take you directly there.

Wedding Pictures

Recently Ant and I helped Jolene McDowell out with a wedding. Ant and I were in charge of the guys getting ready and we were kind of nervous being out on our own but we made it and got some great shots. During the wedding we were in charge of getting the small things that the main photographer doesn't have time to get. It was a long day but we had a lot of fun and took LOTS of pictures.

Maternity Photos

So today while the kiddos were asleep Allison and I got out and took some more pictures. This time I was not behind the camera and therefor very uncomfortable. I can't keep a straight face so most of the shots turned out with me having a goofy head because I didn't know what to do with myself. Allison did a great job so here you go...

My First Photo Shoot!!!

Yay!!! I finally got to do my own real photo shoot. This is Allison she is a wonderful friend, beautiful model, and an amazing mother of soon-to-be three. We were in her yard and mine armed with a camera, several dresses and couple of second hand props we picked up here and there. We spent half of the time fighting with the clouds and mosquitoes, but that didn't keep us down...we had no time to spare because all of the kiddos were sleeping. So I think it turned out pretty good considering it being my first time and I think I've only taken one photo of someone being pregnant before. So hopefully here in a couple of weeks I will post some photos of me that she will be taking being that we are only two weeks apart.... hopefully to be continued:)

Colony Days

Saturday was the Colony Day in Palmer so Steven, Cruz and I took the opportunity to get out of the house and enjoy ourselves. We got there right on time and we watched Cruz enjoy the excitement of the parade. He was so cute waving to all the people passing bye. One lady gave him a sucker so we had to teach him to suck on it rather than bite it. After he was done he had snot running down his nose and yellow sticky slime smeared across his face. He was so cute!



We finally got tired of watching the parade and went to chat with our friend Dwayne. He had his chiropractic booth set up for screenings. After that I got a pulled pork sandwich from the Rib Shack and Steven got a cheese burger. Cruz snacked off our sandwiches and fudge.

Then we decided it was time to go home.
