Another Baby!

I started to name him "Harry", but now I think I'll call him "Cotton". He is sooo soft!
And no, it's not a kangaroo!


Lorrie with the baby. The baby only weighs a few pounds. He feels like a feather!


This is the Mama Llama...up close.


Judi has never been kissed by a Llama.


You can see, a lot has been going on since my last post in June. Here is a new baby. Do you know what it is? At first look, you might think it is a little kangaroo, but, of course it isn't. He is a brand new baby Llama! He was a surprise. Lorrie didn't know her llama was pregnant. It seems Diel, the male llama, got into the pasture with the 2 girl llamas about 11 months ago. So there you go. Nature happens.

Scott and Lindsey

Something old, Something new, Something borrowed, Something blue!


This beautiful brooch is getting pinned on the front of the dress.


And look! A little secret "something blue" inside Lindsey's dress.


The scene is set, ready for the bride to appear.


This is one of my favorite shots. I just love the scene and the idea that the bride and groom are unaware of the camera, just getting ready for their formal portraits.


And I love this shot, too.


Todd coached Lindsey on how to make a heart with the sparklers. Neat!


Scott and Lindsey were married July 5th at the Yolo Fliers Club in Woodland. It was a really pretty evening ceremony. They were married in a "circle", and for each part of the ceremony, they would turn a bit so everyone got a chance to see their faces. That was neat. The sunset was beautiful and after the reception, there were plenty of sparklers to play with. That was a fun touch. The two of them make a very gorgeous couple. Scott was especially pleased to get to eat the Colossal Shrimps that he loved so much. The couple had escaped to the Lounge so they could have some time to themselves. But that didn't last long. The two moms hunted them down and invaded the room and shared their meal as they gave them motherly advice...like who was going where for each holiday! What a riot they were!

Baby Hunter goes to the Beach....sort of...

Look at this little doll. He just melts my heart.


And oh, his little feet and hands are yummy!



Hunter is amazed by his first bubbles.


Oh! let's have some more of those gorgeous little feet and hands...and legs!


Here is Hunter, again, the cutest baby boy in the world! He is wearing his aloha outfit that Todd and I got for him when we were in Hawaii. Isn't he cute? We really love the little guy. I found some of my beach collections and we tried to make a little beach scene, but without the sand, it is lacking. But that's ok. Hunter steals the show all by himself. Of course, his beautiful Mommy helps make the scenery even prettier!

Jason and Bethany

Here is another beautiful wedding, a week after Cheryl and Thomas'. Jason and Bethany are a young couple in love, living in Woodland. They were High School sweethearts and now have committed to being sweethearts forever! They were married in the Woodland Christian Church, which is a very beautiful church. They are committed Christians and the ceremony was very special and very blessed by the presence of many friends and family members. Bethany just happens to be the niece of Cheryl! So it was fun seeing the same family together again. Jason's parents had the most beautiful and delicious Czech wedding cakes baked by Little Prague...yes, there were six cakes!! The couple was sent off with a flurry of bubbles. Have a beautiful life together.

Here is a collage of some of the details of the wedding...lavender!



Bethany was such a beautiful bride!


Bethany and Jason- so in love.



Sophia- an enchanting flower girl!



Look! It is Cheryl and Thomas--back from their Honeymoon! Guess where they went!


I can't forget one of my favorite couples, Dennis and Nancy! Cheryl is their daughter and they are the grandparents of Bethany! So it was a busy 2 weeks for them!

Thomas and Cheryl

Thomas and Cheryl were married in June at the beautiful Biblical Gardens in Grass Valley. It was a sweet, intimate ceremony with family and friends. Cheryl was so beautiful with her wreath of wild flowers in her hair...very fitting for this little forest hideaway. Later in the evening, they had a reception in Winters which was a lot of fun. It had promised to be a hot summer day, but a nice breeze came up and everyone was very comfortable. It was a good start to their lifetime of happiness.
