A Smattering of Photos

Here are a few of the pictures I've been promising. There's some of the spinach and a few of the strawberries that came out of my garden. There are some pictures from the Grand Tetons and Old Faithful. There are quite a few of Iris. She is becoming quite the little lady. When we were staying at Matt and Janessa's she found the floaties and proceeded to blow on them like she was blowing them up and then wanted to put them on. So I helped her and she walked around with these floaties on. She thinks she is pretty funny and cracks herself up all the time. She is always laughing. She loves talking on the cell phone except when there is actually someone on the other end, then she freezes up and just stares at it. She loves to feed herself and gets mad when I try and help. She loves to help me in the garden. We put two sandboxes in there so she can play while I'm in there, but she really likes to play in the mud and then throw all the sand out of the sandbox. She's pretty good at picking tomatoes too.

It has been a very busy summer and it is finally starting to wind down. We have two more weddings this month and then it really slows down. Just in time for the holiday family pictures to pick up. We do have another wedding fair in October and then in November Evan is going to Phoenix to photograph a wedding down there. And we have one in December too. So still busy, just not as bad. Which is a good thing considering our new addition due in November.

Well I hope you all enjoy these pictures. I will try and get more on soon.

Home again, home again...

We made it!! We are now back home!! It seems like months have gone by but really only about 3 weeks. We still are without a shower, but luckily we have neighbors that are willing to let us use theirs. We just need to put tile up and then the shower's done. It is so nice to be back home again. Iris is loving it. She hasn't played with her toys for so long that it's like they are all new. Thanks again to Justin and especially to Matt and Janessa for letting us stay with them. We are really lucky to have such great friends.

Still camping out

So we still aren't back in our house. Hopefully tomorrow. Evan has been slaving away since the contractors are no longer part of the picture. My pregnant back has really been missing my bed. And Iris hasn't even walked in her own house yet. She is now walking all over the place and hasn't even thought about crawling since. We are thankful for Matt and Janessa for letting us stay with them so long. Iris will be sad when she doesn't have Kaedyn to play with every day. I can't help but feel bad though for taking over their house for so long. THANK YOU SO MUCH MATT AND JANESSA!!!

Living out of a suitcase...

So the reason that I haven't posted anything new lately is that we haven't been able to go into our house for almost two weeks now. Evan discovered that there was black mold in our bathroom and has just snowballed from there with insurance and water restoration crews and on and on. I haven't seen the inside of my house for over a week and I hear that it is in shambles. All the contents of our bathroom and laundry room are scattered to various other places in the house. And they have our hallway completely blocked off so that we couldn't even get to our bedrooms if we wanted. It is very frustrating because we aren't able to do the things we need to to keep our business up to date and just not being able to have something when you need it is hard. We have been lucky enough to have wonderful friends and family let us camp out with them. I would like to sleep in my own bed though. So we are hoping that we will be able to move back in next week. Keep your fingers crossed for us. Till then it might be a while before I get some new pictures on here.

I saw this on Linsay's blog and was interested to see what it would say. I guess it makes sense.
You Are Pocahantas!

Free-spirited and wise. You have a strong passionate spirit that touches and changes all who know you. The wisdom and common sense that you have is really what guides you through life. Even so, you also have a very playful side that loves adventure and excitement.

Which Disney Princess Are You?

Help!

I have somehow deleted all the links to everyone's blogs. So please write a comment so I can get the names to your blogs if I haven't already added it back on. I couldn't remember everyone's. I would really appreciate it.

Memory Lane...

I got this from Allison's blog. I thought it sounded fun. It will be interesting to see what is memorable about me to all of you.

Leave a comment on my blog of a memory that you and I have had together. It doesn't matter if you've known me for a short time, or a long time, anything you remember! Next, re-post these instructions on your blog and see how many people leave a memory about you. It's actually pretty funny to see the responses. If you leave a memory about me, I'll assume you're playing the game and I'll come to your blog and leave one about you....
