I rented a lens for vacation and decided to annoy the pets by trying it out on them. Here's Roxy pretending she's asleep so I'll leave her alone. Didn't work!

Christmas came a bit early at our house this year. Sarah Teresa was born on the 20th. A friend of ours has an awesome in-home studio and was kind enough to let us use her setup to take pictures (while teaching me some of the ins-and-outs of studio photography). Our session was cut short by Sarah getting fussy so we might go back next week to take a couple more.
Merry Christmas!

Though Nila is due tomorrow, it seems little _ _ _ _ is quite comfortable in the womb as she hasn’t given much indication she’s ready to come out. No worries, that’s giving me a chance to try out my new flash.

Merry (almost) Christmas! Continuing my semi-tradition, here's an HDR of our living room and Christmas tree. Nearly all of the gifts currently stashed under the tree will be going into our car for a 7 hour drive.

The end of the year is coming up pretty quick on us and it's about this time that I start wondering if I'm using the right number on each post.
Oh well.
Yesterday was our annual company holiday party. This year it was held at a new venue, named The Venue (creative, eh?), which was (in my mind) a lot better than previous years. There was a full stage, so I was able to walk up/around/in front of the band while they were playing and take pictures and things were just pretty neat. My friend in the photo below (you may remember him from the last time I mentioned the company party) recently joined the band and was belting out one of his songs. You can see the rest of the party photos here.

One of the annual traditions in my family is jelly making. My grandpa comes into town with all the supplies and we spend a Saturday making some of the best jelly I’ve ever had. This is the signature Sandhill Plum.

Using another photo from Thanksgiving. This is my brother's dog, Yuki. She's very shy around people that are not my brother or his wife, so I was happy enough that she was willing to stare at me long enough for me to take her photo.

Last Sunday was Sophia’s first birthday party. Nila made cupcakes (and an awesome cupcake owl) which Sophia seemed to enjoy. Full set here.

I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving. We had a good time - traveled to Nebraska and saw family. I was lucky enough to go to the Husker game with my dad while I was in town, which was fun (and we won). The photo below is Molly's uncle, Jimmy, being Spiderman. He owns a gym in Lincoln and is fairly practiced at jumping up to the wall and staying there for a bit.

Happy Thanksgiving! As was the case last year, Anna made nametags for everyone. This year, Nila’s was extra special.
