This weekend I was feeling a bit like a mopey-dope, but then I had Aubree and Zack’s engagement shoot and everything got awesome really quickly. The weather was perfect, Aubree and Zack wore fantastic colors, we met the grown up’s equivalent of Santa and his sleigh (more on this in a minute), and I got a couple of New Favorite Pictures:

I warmed them up with a little exercise–piggy back rides, jumping, and spinning each other.  It’s really not an engagement shoot if you’re not sweating 10 minutes into it. 

After all that piggy backing and swinging around, it was a good thing we spotted the Red Bull car (excuse my crappy snapshot–I was so excited to see such coolness that I’m lucky I even remembered where the shutter release button is).

We were all talking about how awesome it was when the Red Bull Guy asked if we’d like some free Red Bull.  As if that’s even a question!  Umm, yes–I definitely want some Mommy Crack (as it is called in the Turchin household)!  Of course, at 2am when I was still powering through work at my desk that night and wondering why I wasn’t tired, it seemed like a less good idea…but free Red Bull is a gift you don’t turn down.

After our Red Bull break, we stopped at this bridge that I’d always wanted to play at:

And then went back to awesome colorful pictures and landscapes
