A White Wonderland

Winter has been with us for (nearly) 48 hours now. As much as I dislike the cold, and often crave the summer sun, I love when Wisconsin turns into a white winter wonderland! With only a few days to spare, the snow came just in time for us to have a white Christmas! These photos were taken on two different snow days. One blue-skyed day, and one overcast.

Fall in Wisconsin

This has been one of the most memorable fall seasons I have experienced in a long time. We've had b e a u t i f u l, sunny days with highs in the 70's and cool, crisp nights. With the change of seasons there has also been some changes in my life. Despite how crazy it can all seem, life is still good- and even more importantly, God is still good. I can't imagine life without Him in my life, and I love that I keep on learning more about Him and continue to draw closer.

I went out with my camera a couple times last weekend to capture some of the color and beauty in the part of Wisconsin I live in. Here are some of those photos...

Chicago

This summer I spent a weekend with my cousin in Chicago. We had a lovely time shopping, eating, and sight-seeing around the city! She wanted some photos of Chicago to hang up around her apartment, and these are some of my favorite shots.

Raina

I had originally posted a few, very small photos from Raina's shoot that I did with Krystal Mullenberg. I thought it was time I finally did a decent post with normal-sized photos. These are my favorites.

Field of Gold

The other night I went hiking with my neighbor though a field of golden rod and into the woods.
It was so beautiful, and the light was perfect just before sunset, that I knew I needed to go back to take photos. This lovely girl I know was willing to be my model in the sunlight for the evening. We had such a great time, and I was quite happy with how the photos turned out, so here they are.....
































Thanks for hanging out with me Claudia! I had a wonderful evening with you.
These are all my personal favorites, but go here to view all of the photos: http://www.flickr.com/photos/alicemae/sets/72157631187100216/with/7835807702/
