The Carters

Monday morning I got to go to Jason & Elly's beautiful home and spend an hour with their darling boys, Luke & Jake. Thank you so much for letting me take photos of your lovely family, I hope you like them!

Wake Boarding

Justin & Traci took us out on Utah Lake today for some wakeboarding. Not only did I finally get up (thanks to Justin & Todd) But I got to break in my zoom lens. Here are some of the pics from this morning. Thanks Justin & Traci, you guys are the best!

July 29th

Today is my dear Grandpa's birthday, he would have been 91 today. We really miss and love him.

Seen anything good lately?

I recently dove into my DVD collection and have rediscovered these gems! If you haven't seen them, do so, and if you have do it again; you'll be glad you did.

Where does the time go?

With July almost out, and the little reds gone home I thought I would post my favorite pictures from the last month; enjoy!

Myka's 5th Birthday Party

Myka berry

Five years ago today I was eating Nutella on a stale baguette in London when the phone rang, she had arrived! I can't believe five years have gone by and how lovely Myka has become! Happy Birthday Myka Berry! We love you! 

I wish I had 3 hands to give it 3 thumbs up

Happy 25th Justin! Actually 26th, Happy 26th!

We wanted to get you something you would really like. So here is a montage of you for your birthday. The gift that keeps on giving, Happy Birthday! 

Welcome Clifford Baby!

Congrats Tasha & Christopher on your beautiful baby boy! And may this first child be a masculine child! We can't wait to meet him!

go green

Meet Kristen Elisabeth Green, she is marvelous, funny and a scholar to boot. Kristen and I have been amigas since we could walk, and she recently was good enough to be my guinea pig for a photo assignment. She will be departing for London in September as she has been accepted to Kings College. I guess I will just have to go and visit!

Reunited and it feels so good

Being the foodie that I am, I don't know why it has been so long since I have been to the Pizzaria 712. But last nights meal was like reuniting with that long lost friend who knows, loves and feeds you! These guys just keep getting better and better. If you haven't been in a while (or even a few days) go visit the P712 you will be glad you did. photo by Nicole Hill

Sunday afternoon with the reds

Sunday afternoon in my grandma's backyard. Heaven.
