Happy New Year!

I hope everyone has enjoyed the first day of 2014! I know that I have. It was such a beautiful day and the girls and I spent as much time as we could outside. Bella practiced riding her bike.

She spent a lot of time looking like this...

She only fell off once and got better as she kept going:)

My dad bought all of the girls a lifetime hunting/fishing license and he has gotten Hannah excited about hunting.  She went with him on Friday rabbit hunting. They only got one rabbit and he needed more to have my mom make a meal for them. He got another today so that they could have enough to eat.  Hannah and Makaya helped him skin the rabbit (ewww!!!) I try to keep my lack of enthusiasm to myself because I'm completely fine with them hunting and eating what they kill. I just don't want any part of it myself. 

This was Makayla's face when Hannah and dad first starting working on the rabbit. 

She then decided she wanted to do it herself. 

Hannah was transfixed from the start. I was just glad when it was done. 
I then followed the kids around trying to play with my camera.  

I already knew the sun was not my friend when taking pictures but looking at my pictures reiterated that for me. Any photographer friends have any tips?

I love this picture even if it's not perfect because to me it looks like PURE  JOY!!!!!! 

Happy New Year everyone! Hope it's your best one yet!
