A whole month is done already for the 366 project.  I can't believe it!  It seems like it was just Christmas! February? Tomorrow?  I mean I can always get excited for spring so I guess we are getting closer to it!  Birds were chirping today! Whoo hoo!

I read an amazing post by a fellow photographer which made me think about trying off camera flash.  Kristina is awesome and you can check her out here: http://www.facebook.com/hellooliviaphotography/  I really haven't tried off camera flash before so I gave it a whirl.  It was already dark and I was not wanting to skip another day if possible of shooting.  I am FAR from an expert on flash let alone off camera flash but I don't think my first shot at it was awful.  Definately alot more learning to do though if I want to dive into it more!

Ever dream of getting that magical shot of your little girl catching snowflakes?  That perfect shot?  Ha!  I do but not quite what I got.  It was snowing and I literally had like a minute to try to get her excited about snow so instead this is what I ended up with.  I still love it and it really shows how she was feeling that morning.  A beautiful shot of her catching snowflakes would have been such a misrepresentation of our morning. :)

He was playing with his alarm clock/ night light in the dark so I thought I would try to catch him shining the moon on his hand.

I was more than excited that the sun was out for our walk to pick up my 2 oldest from school.  Especially since it was warm enough for there to be puddles!  I absolutely am in love with this shot.  The sunburst behind her head, the one on her foot and the tiny ones that surround her boots.

We had such a fantastic day together and I wanted to make sure that I captured it!  We decided to break the rules and jump on the couch.  It was awesome!  I set my settings on my camera and set it up on some boxes and on a timer.  We tried a few shots and this ended up being the last one and I LOVE that expression on her face! <3

Just another lazy Saturday morning.  The kids were pretending to be running a hotel so they were preparing food for Dad with the play dishes.  I love the dust in the light!

Alli and I got to spend some time together just her and I.  It was great!  She got her hair cut.  She had been asking for awhile and she and I both love how it turned out!
