We're alive!

...and we have pictures to prove it!

Ok, ok, it's been too long since our last post, and I apologize. Airika and I took a much needed break over the holidays, and we've been working feverishly ever since. :) In any case, we wanted to share a few photos from our time away, so enjoy!

Christmas tree hunting with Airika's family.
This should be interesting...
Yep, that looks good hun. I'm going to just stand over here behind the camera and watch.
I love the snow. It's like God's gift to photographers who want even fill light without having to hold a reflector!
On Christmas Day, we went to visit some family up in Lake Stevens, WA. I believe they had close to 2 feet of perfect snow, so we played in it. For hours. We love this shot that Airika's sister Hannah took of us.
Cousin Clayton and his sweet pet rabbits.
Airika's other sister, Gretchen, learning that it's pretty easy to hide behind a camera. ;)
Yep, we are building a sweet igloo!
This thing was freaking sweet. I'm a respectably tall person(6'2") and I could stand up inside with room to spare. It even came complete with an arched tunnel entryway. I must say, building a shelter out of water is quite rewarding. I was grinning for days after that. Good times...
Jacob, Airika's "little" brother on the other side of the igloo.
