12/52 Where the Chicken Thing Started

I'm getting caught up here on my one-a-weeks, so I'm posting today and tomorrow. Here goes.

I'm am continually thankful that visiting grandparents always means a lot of outdoor, farm time. In Waterville, Marlow loves to visit the neighbors who have their own homestead going on complete with horses, chickens, turkey, ducks, rabbits, dogs, 4H kids, you name it. We hear cow and goat are coming soon. Marlow likes to say "Duck scarwin' me! So loud! Oh yeah!"

Needless to say, this is where Marlow's chicken obsession started.

Badten Reception | Waterville

Well here's something you don't see on my blog every day - a WEDDING reception! I am so thankful that our friends Tyler and Taerrah asked me to photograph their formals and reception. T&T had a beautiful wedding in Mexico the week before, then came back to get the party started in Waterville. 

About that (dare I say vintage) grain elevator. I've passed by this building 100 times in Waterville (which is FULL of sweet gems like this) and thought about what a great back drop it would make. It was pretty awesome to have chilly, but great weather in February so we could use it! I love it so much; we might take some of our own family photos there sometime. :)

Tyler and Taerrah, we are so happy for you! Taerrah, what a gorgeous bride you make. Thank you for choosing me; thank you for being our friends; thank you for dancing with Marlow and letting her pet your dress; thank you for a great night. We wish you a very happy and blessed future as Mr. and Mrs. 

9/52 Dancin'

My Marlow is kind of a dancin' fool if you didn't know. She shakes it off, thinks it's no big deal, and is all about that bass. See what I did there? This week she went to a wedding. And danced. And danced. And danced. And made funny faces with her new friend. It was the first time she's attended a wedding where she wasn't already in bed by time the music started. It was awesome.  (More pics from this wedding coming tomorrow.)
