What Tildie's Touch is All About

So, I decided to start this blog just to share some of my best and favorite photos. I have really become addicted to taking pictures, and have my camera with me almost everywhere I go.

December 2009


Some pictures of the fun that we had in December.

These were taken at The Zermatt Resort in Midway...our favorite vacation place to go that is close to home.

 The view from our room window.



One of the hot pots at the Zermatt.

Reid and I took a trip to see the lights at Temple Square with some close friends.

Summer Days 2009

These are just some of my favorite photos from the Summer of 2009.

These next few are from our anual trip to Washington State...



These flowers were all over the place in Forks, WA.  Yes, the place that the Twilight Series takes place.  It was such a cute little logging town turned touristville.

These next few are from La Push Beach; the place where the reservation is that Jacob, from Twilight, lives.

This beach is called Second Beach.

The view from the trail on the hike to the beach...

I love this one of my boys...

We were talking about how delicious sandwiches were and next thing we knew, Reid was spitting sand out of his mouth...



Reid didn't want the waves to get him...

These next few are from Spanish Fork Fair Days.

I didn't take this one, but it pretty much sums up who I am... 
(Deep down, I'm a country girl, but tom boy at the core.  I had just graduated from Jump school, so I had to show off my wings...my butt pack which doubled as a diaper bag, camera bag, and purse, but I don't carry a purse, it's a bag...The boots and hat...well, since it was fair days, the local western outfitter was having good deals on boots and hats and I had wanted to get some for a LONG time...plus, Kenny Chesney and Toby Keith were coming in concert...I had to get some for the shows!  I was so excited when I bought them, I just had to put them on right away...I didn't care what the locals thought of me, their neighbor.  Oh, and the shorts...well, I have to wear them long, and girl shorts are just too, well, girlie...so, I wear cargo shorts...they are functional...I can put lots of fruit snacks in the pockets, and miscellaneous toys, etc...plus, they are just comfy!)

Back to my pictures...




And the real attitude comes forward...

This next one is of some puppies that my aunt was trying to sell...I almost ended up buying one because they were so dang cute!


Each year, Heber City holds an AWESOME Crash'em-Up Derby...This is my favorite shot from that night.


Our anual Epps Family Camping/Fishing Trip to Current Creek.  I took a ton of pictures, but these two were the best quality.

Reid, on his first fishin' trip in Grandpa Epps' ol aluminum fishin' boat...Oh, the memories that I  have in that boat with my dad and brothers...

This was the fire that we tried to keep warm and dry by because it rained pretty much the entire time we were there...but that is tradition.  It would be abnormal if it didn't rain on the anual Epps camping trip... 


This one was just a fun day at the park

Neuschwanstein Castle

These pictures are all from various trips to the Neuschwanstein Castle in Bavaria (Germany). This was probably a tie with Holland as my top favorite places that we visited while we were in Germany.

Alicia's Wedding

These are just a few of the pictures that I took for my cousin's wedding. I took over 300 pictures (you gotta love digital cameras!) so to spare looking through that many, these are a few of my favorites. I edited some of them to add effect. Let me know what you think.
