Family photos

Next up? Entire family.  My friend, Natalie, was a sport and came to take the pictures.  I set the camera on the settings I wanted and see took them.  I think we got a few good ones!

 My favorite, although I wish I would have used the flash.

 We forgot to get one of Kirk and myself before we left, so we pulled over at a park and Justin took these.  :)

Justin's photo session

Next it was Justin's turn to let me practice my new skills.  My focus this day was to have the background blurry most of the time.  Kind of tricky, but I got it on a few.  Isn't he just the most handsome?!

Avery's photo session

After owning my camera for over 6 years, I finally am starting to learn how to use it on manual mode.  Meaning I am in complete control of the shutter speed, lighting, ISO, Aperture,  etc.  Avery was my first guinea pig and I'm very happy with how they turned out.  Doesn't hurt she's a great little model.  :)

Our date

Kirk and I went on a date to DL one day, as well. The View was filming and that is Shari Sheppard below.

Disneyland September 2013

Aside from Devin's birthday trip to Disneyland, our family went another time in September too.  And we had great days with great weather!

 Astro Orbitors is one of Devin's new favorite rides

 Yum! Turkey leg!

 The kids had a teacher development day and we ran into our friends, The Paulsen's, while there. Got to ride Toy Story Mania with them.

 Posing for our picture

 Devin's first time on Space Mountain.  Not a fan.  :)
