I had the privilege to photograph my lovely Cousin and her fiancee at his family ranch in Austin, Tx this January. It was freezing out but these two warmed up with sweaters, blankets, and the love they have for each other!

Over the next month I'll be participating in a pioneer reenactment trip. The fun began for me last Saturday with a training day! All the adults who will be participating learned how to load, pull, and unload a hand cart, carts that they had made mostly themselves, procuring the wheels and axles from Amish builders to ensure quality and accuracy. They also learned safety measures and a few tricks to help along the journey. There was a great demonstration of songs that will be learned and sang along the trail. A young girl joined her parents in singing Cockles and Mussles to help get everyone in the spirit of things. Everyone then went through some songs. A cooking demonstration using dutch ovens and a small camp burner. The food was delicious and only took about 45 minutes to cook dinner and dessert! After eating everyone joined in a circle to learn some fun games and there was laughter all around. Once everyone had learned the games, they gathered back at the main site and a few special stories were shared of those who had pioneers in their ancestry and were doing this in their honor. All in all it was a fantastic day and
