funny face party

last saturday we had annie's funny face party!  this little delight turned five this year!!  

we had so much fun decorating funny face cupcakes, taking silly pictures in our funny face photo booth, and ripping it up with a little freeze dance!  oh, and i can't forget the piñata!

the best was when sam got behind the lens.  what a fun daddy!!

i found this darling photo booth kit at walmart in their party section.  it came with the backdrop and an assortment of silly accessories i.e. mustaches, glasses, lips, hats, etc.

thank you friends for making her day special!  

and a big thank you to pétra for all your prep help and my sweet sister-in-laws for helping with crowd control ;)

Christmas Bells are Ringing

here's a special Christmas treat for you! 

this is my little brother (right) and my cousin's rendition of Christmas Bells are Ringing.

my kids can't stop watching.  either can i.  we're laughing our guts out!  i don't know if it's funny because we know them... or if it's just plain hilarious to all!  i'd say the latter.

enjoy!

so i dusted my camera off and ventured outdoors with these awesome peeps.  this is my darling sister-in-law and her adorable family! aren't they the cutest? they're all so funny and exude oodles of personality, making them extra fun to capture :)  and best of all, my little nephews were so well behaved.  love that.

i prayed hard for good weather.  being in utah, you never know!  thankfully, it turned out to be a beautiful, mild afternoon with gorgeous lighting.  

and doesn't their pretty black lab just make these pics complete?  he's like the icing on top of a delicious gingerbread cookie! yumm

merry christmas hale family!  i had a blast with you! love you guys ♥ xoxo
