Wow! It's been a while. We have been busy busy! Let me update you on the things that we have been doing lately. This past week has been especially busy with working overtime and weekends, Matt's track day, Young Women's, Nicole's baby shower, photography lessons, designing Jeremy's wedding invitations and I just got a freelance graphic design job for a lady in my ward. It's crazy! I don't have pics of Nicole's baby shower but I will soon. Here are some of the pictures of our eventful month of August....

Matt and Brian's track days are so much fun. I get to try my new photography skills out and have fun watching them have fun like little kids again.
This was my most favorite picture of Brian. He was flying on Saturday!

Between sessions I went to the other side of the track and caught this race car accident just in time. THe lighting is a little bad but I barely got the pic.

Jeremy received his endowments at the St George Temple. It was a very special occasion. Jared was able to join us. I haven't seen him in about 5 years. My grandma, grandpa, Uncle Jay joined us too. My grandma and I teared up at the end of the session. It's one step closer to linking our family together.

I love this guy pic.

We went to our yearly Leu Family Reunion. It always is a blast to see all of my extended family on my mom's side. We are very close family. Don't worry all. I will get this picture emailed soon. I just need to crop and touch up a couple of things.

My grandma and mom wanted a special picture together. They don't get to see each other very often. It was a special time for all of us.

My cousin Jared and his family who I never get to see. They have the cutest kids that I followed around all weekend with my camera.

Who wouldn't. Look at how cute he is.

Can't leave the cabin without a roughin' it picture.

Here are some more pics of Matt's track days. I love action pictures.

Oh yes. Well, this guy was a crazy rider who was trying to get his racing license. He was going crazy on the track and the crash wasn't a surprise. He went around the corner, over sided and slid into the concrete wall where his bike followed. The peg went into his leg and broke his bone which ended up going through the skin. He also broke his fingers and someone said might have been burned from the pipe.

He was life flighted out. What better way to send a message to be careful out there. Needless to say it was the first life flight I have seen out there. It really is pretty safe. Safer than on the road.

My work is sponsoring a BMX team. I asked if I could practice my photography while they were practicing. These guys are amaizing!

This is Jantzen Frampton, age 15. He is a funny kid and very gutzy. He love getting his picture taken. He is pretty popular. There have been other sponsors that have talked to him but he declined.

A clint from my work is a professional photographer who is giving me private photography lessons. It has been so much fun and I have learned so much!


Here's to a busy month but it's not over yet!

Ryder's blessing

A few weeks ago we went to Idaho to see Colt and Amy's baby be blessed. The just moved to Oregon but were able to arrange the blessing in Idaho where they used to live. We had a blast. I love those guys!!!

Lindsay, Chase, and baby (I totally forgot her name) Colt, Amy, and Ryder. Matt, me and Spencer. (His new Wife couldn't make it.) Someday we will all have property with a house on each corner and a dirt bike track in the middle. It's the plan. :)

Guy time.

Isn't he so cutest ever?!!! Amy you are sooo lucky!

This one was a little blurry but I like it.

We stayed in a hotel across the street from the Idaho Falls temple. It was so beautiful. I woke up really early in the morning when the sun was rising but I didn't want to wake Ryder up to take pictures. It was a perfect sight.

We had so much fun and we wouldn't have missed it for the world!

Girls Camp 2010

Camp was a lot of fun this year! I was in charge of the activities and it was quite the task! I wanted to make sure the girls had a lot of fun so we brought the giant rubber band thanks to Emily Miller, We played clothes pin tag (very, very fun), had a hilarious fear factor competition, played water balloon volleyball, decorated camp song books, and much more. Other activities that we provided at the camp were canooing, zip line, archery and crafts. I thought camp went great! Our girls were amazing. I don't remember much complaining, it wasn't hard to get the to help out, it wasn't even too hard getting them up in the morning. We stayed fairly safe. Savanna got Stinging Nettle, and Myranda got a tick but other tan that we were blessed with safety. My favorite moments at camp were, Myranda's mouth full of carrots (you had to be there. I laughed until I cried), daily scripture study, (one of the tents didn't want to come out until they were done with the chapter. Afterward they told us what they had read about. That was my favorite part). Devotional and singing and dancing to the camp songs. Yes there was one night after chocolate turtle cake that I really got into it. I think I shocked some of the girls. Fear Factor was so funny too. We have some competitive girls! Once I get the video I will post it. Camp went by really fast. I had so much fun and I hope that I brought some of the girls closer to their heavenly father in the middle of all of the madness. Before camp, our stake young women's president said... We were going to have the opportunity to reach out to those girls and help them feel the spirit at camp, when life's distractions like cell phones, television and computers were at home. I hope I was able to do that.
