I’ll try to post a few later tonight, but here are a few from our view on the beach:

Let me know what you think …

I hope that all you Moms out there have a great day and know that you are appreciated and loved!

Last month, the wrestling season finished up and I was able to get out and get a few shots and play around with the D90 at the state tournament; check out a state championship hightlight video below:

Anyways, over the next few days, I’ll have a couple of other shoots to post over and then I’ll be getting back to more regular updates, plus I need to post some pictures of my boys; they haven’t made a blog appearance in quite a while.

I wanted to just add a little post today to say Happy Valentine’s Day and a very special Happy Valentine’s Day to Tara!

And since no blog post can really be complete without a picture, here’s a picture of my beautiful wife back when we were living in our first apartment:

~Tara,

I am truly blessed to have you as my wife, best friend, and mother to our two wonderful boys!  Thank you for all that you do and all that you put up with from your three boys . . . we really don’t mean to cause you a lot of grief, but somehow we manage to do so.  I love you and I am looking forward to all the memories that we get to share together!

And since I don’t like to post without a picture, here is a picture from our honeymoon in Maui:

Last week we got a chance to spend time with my family in Colorado; here are some shots of time in Denver:

Here’s Grandma holding her grand-baby . . .

And here’s Uncle Tanner taking an afternoon nap with Ronan . . .

And for the first time, Witten got to go out and enjoy a little play time in the snow . . .

Two of Witten’s favorite things combined into one . . . Sponge-Bob and brushing his teeth . . .

And I couldn’t help but post these pictures of Witten struting around in Aunt Jaden and Aunt Siale’s hat . . .

I guess he was mad that I was taking his picture . . . I’d probably be mad too . . .

Aunt Siale was so sweet with Ronan . . . she probably held him for over an hour while he was asleep . . . she just kept walking around the house . . .

And one last picture of our little guy . . .

I’m especially grateful for my wonderful wife who has been so supportive throughout all of my shoots, projects, and everything in between.  She’s a huge reason why our family is as happy as we are and as close.  Tara, I love you for all that you do, day in and day out to support and care for me, Witten, and Ronan . . . you’re an awesome mother, friend, and wife.

I hope that you all have a very safe and Happy New Year!  Tomorrow I’ll play a little catch up and post some photo shoots that haven’t been blogged.

Here’s a photo from our week in Colorado this last week . . . Witten was trying so hard to comfort Ronan, but little brother wasn’t feeling the love . . .

As he’s saying in the picture below . . . “COLD!” . . .

He was much more interested in the tracker toys than the pumpkins, ponies, or the hay ride . . . that’s a boy for you . . .

And here’s the beautiful Mrs. Cryer trying to keep Ronan shielded from the wind with that awesome OSU sling . . .

Witten saw one of the big inflatables and got all excited . . . he’s just a little short and young though for this one . . .

We had to get some pictures of Witten up on the hay bales which starte out good . . .

And then he reached his breaking point . . . he wasn’t very happy with Daddy for taking his picture and not getting him down

And he’s still angry . . .

It’s probably because we went to the pumpkin patch late in the season and he couldn’t find a pumpkin he liked . . .

Have a safe and Happy Halloween!!!

That doesn’t mean I’m leaving out big brother though; he’ll still be in a ton of pictures as well.

Anyways, here’s a few of Ronan from this last week . . . I can’t believe he’s already a month old!
