My brother Sam just received his mission call today. He is going to the Barranquilla, Colombia mission, Spanish speaking. He is stoked! He leaves for the MTC August 20, 2008. Sam we are soooo excited for you. Congrats, you are awesome! Love ya Tons!

Update!

Life for us has been well intresting but filled with great moments. Since our last entry, I have chopped 11 inches of my hair off and donated it. I really was kind of supprised that they took my hair but hey it has been a fun change. I still don't really know how to style my hair yet because of course I have found a way to put it up no matter how short it is. One of these days I'll get a picture of it up.

A few weeks ago we were visiting my family and spent some time up AF Canyon. Bub and I have not been up there together for so long. For those of you who don't live in Utah County any more, the canyon was beautiful. I love that canyon, I may be biased because I grew up with it in my backyard and that is where Bub proposed to me. AHHHH cute huh! Any way here are some fun pictures from that day.

My sister Eliza turned 16 years old! She had a huge party in the backyard where Bub was incharge of the grill. He loved it! We all had a great time at the party but can not believe she is 16. Not only is she driving around but she can date now. For now she has my Dad, Bruce, Sam, and Bub ( who just might be the worst) intimidator of the young boys. Watch out boys:)

Big news, Bub is no longer in primary. He really could have stayed in primary forever. He is now in Young Mens. He has been working with the boys in young men since they were in primary, so he is excited.

Hailey has some new best friends, the "Box Elder Bugs." The bugs are covering our apartments and lately we have been finding Hailey sneeking them into our home. Today I was making her bed and I guess she brought some Box Elder bugs to be with her. Yes I found three squished bugs in her bed. Awesome!

And these are some more cute pictures from time spent at my families home.

These are my Mom's peach trees in bloom.

Oh yeah, Bub broke one of his front teeth at my sister's birthday party. He got it fixed today. It looks great! I guess we figured out that Bub has not been to a dentist since 99'. Well we went to one since then but we probably would have been better off if we never went to that dentist. So hurray, we found a great one.

I have been working on a wedding and found some beautiful areas in Cache Valley for Bridal shoots.

Cute!

Just a quick story. Hailey likes to cut pieces of paper. She brought be a tiny piece that she had cut so small and she was so proud. I mentioned how it was so little and she responded, "Yep Mom, just like baby Rio."

New Posts!

Sorry I have been so out of it for a while. I finally put up a few new posts on my photography site. Much more will be on the way shortly.
