Snowflakes

How cool is it when you make a super easy craft and folks complement you on how great it looks and just how amazing it is.







Well that my friends is exactly how I felt this week when I made a few snowflakes for the office. Just look how cool these babies turn out...

I found the instructions here... http://www.wikihow.com/Make-a-3D-Paper-Snowflake

Trust me, it is super easy.

The boys

I know that this is going to be the last place that people involved will be looking for holiday gifts this year. But just in case...family members must don't ruin it for yourself. Turn back now! lol

I took my little nephews out on the town the other day and did a little photo shoot for them to give photos for their parents and grandparents. I can't say exactly what they thought about it all in the end, but I for one had a blast spending a little extra time with the munchkins.

Here is a little preview of some of my favorite shots.

But of course they are so darn much fun...I had to laugh at most of the ones that I liked because I just let them run wild a few times and snaped photos of whatever they were doing.

Happy Turkey Day!

As you find that point in the holiday season where you don't remember if you have purchased the perfect gift for your second cousins' new girlfriend that will be bringing her three wildly misbehaved children to the extended family Christmas party, I hope you can sit back and say to yourself. 'Who the heck dosen't need a snuggie?'

No really, I hope that we can all step back this holiday and remember all the things that we really do love about Christmas. My list...

1. Being such a bad cook, that everyone just invites us over with no expection for me to cook!

2. That just because I am having my photo taken dosen't mean that I can't slip and spill my drink on that camera later!

3. Holiday sweaters were made to look hidious on everyone.

4. When someone asks if you want pie, it really would be rude to not accept.

5. Leftovers were ment to feed starving husbands on the day after Thanksgiving while the woman are out shopping.

Hope this is the start to a very Happy Holiday to all our friends and family.

Halloween Party

We had a great time this Halloween when we invited friends and family over to share in the chaos that is our life.

Help me out...

Once again it's time for the annual Utah County Art Gallery Photography Show. This year I have decided once again to enter, but the delema becomes what to show? So it's up for a vote. I have narrowed all my entries down to a few solid choices.

I just don't know what to take. So send me your thoughts on the matter!

Santaquin Celebration

What a weekend...Nikki started off the Orchard Days Celebration by walking the 5K with friends. Then we snuck away to enjoy the shade at Doug and Denise's home to watch the parade.

The whole family was there!

We took a quick tour of the Car Show and a little buggy trip up Santaquin Pole Canyon and then spent the rest of the afternoon hiding in the air conditioning. But it was after a few rounds on the karaoke machine before we hit the sack after a long and eventful day!

Happy 4th

A happy 4th of July, was spent this year being grateful for the beautiful land that we often take for granite. We spent most of the day making a trip over the Mt Nebo scenic loop and down Mona Pole Canyon.
