funnest photoshoot ever!

My extremely talented friend Kiera asked me if I would pose for a photo shoot for her. She found this amazing vintage dress at DI that I had to squeeze into, but loved to wear, cause I'm a sucker for dresses and for extreme makeup! we had such a blast!!!!

e i e i o

my baby loves to sing!, I swear she was singing straight out the womb! literally, she would make little sighs and purs. As of late, it's "old McDonald had a farm" that she loves! which makes sense because she loves animals!!! without fail, when someone sings old McDonald had a farm she sings e i e i o, and when she wants to sing the whole thing, she sings (with the right tune) BO BO BO bo BO BO bo, e i e i o. it is hilarious!, and I must say.. she is quite delicious right out of the bath!

Art city carnival

This past weekend was Art city days, so we took the kiddos to the carnival and made sure to hit the parade and fire works at The Orem fest as well. We played so hard that Olea actually slept through the entire night, I was baffled and felt like a new woman the next day! I'm sad I didn't get any pics of Olea, I was having too much fun with the older girls on the rides.

Happy Sunday!

Today was a beautiful day, lots of sunshine and family fun, just the way I like it. We went up the canyon to celebrate Fathers day and also my Mom's 63rd birthday....its so strange to think that my mom is 63. All of a sudden that number doesn't sound as old as it use to. Time flies, people change, and life never works out exactly the way you plan! those are a few things I have witnessed in my time. I love these people! I have many fathers around me that have blessed my life, I wish I had a picture of all of them. My husband is an inspiration and I am so blessed to have him as my daughters daddy!

what a dork!

uuuuuumm, o.k. is all I could say when I saw my handsome husband walking around the house in this. Then he asks me...do you think this makes my head look too long? Apparently it was part of his costume wardrobe for his paintings.

Coke and a tutu

This may be the only time we see coke in a tutu. She only lasted about 2 minutes in it and then was pulling on it and trying to get it off, but it was fun while it lasted. lately she has been into taking her clothes off and her diaper which she does very well! and I cannot keep anything in her hair. She likes to be free, and a free spirit she is! I love my little Cocoa!

Tessa

My new neice, Tessa. She is now 4 months old, and looks just like her Daddy (Tony, my bro.).

RaNdOmNeSs

I want to remember the happenings from the last couple of weeks, so here are a bunch of photos to post!

Last week we went up to SLC to spend some time in the water fountains while Ben searched for a Christ model for his next painting. We had a ton of fun until the blizzard came. love the peeping panties on Gabby!




Feeding the ducks at BYU, sunday afternoon.

At the zoo with Chloe, Ellie, and Jack, but you can't tell they were there because none of the photos turned out :(

For family night we went up to Bridal Veil Falls. It was beautiful until we got washed out by a huge thunder storm and was soaked by the time we got back to the car!



I LOVE my baby in a nightie gown! so I like to leave her in it until about noonish, then I put her in regular clothing.

The girls having a giggle war, they remind me so much of me and my little sis, Tara!

Today was freezing!, so it was fun to put Olea in some warm clothes.
