Weekend Faves

We had a busy working weekend in Utah this weekend. Here are a few faves form each shoot. We also shot the prom , but I haven't done any editing on those yet. It was super busy, and super fast. As you can guess, I have pretty much been camped out in front of my computer for the last couple of days to get them edited as quickly as possible. At some point I will post some pics of our daily craziness, but for now, this is all you get.

Baby Gabbie

Our good friends Seth and Lexi had their sweet baby girl on Tuesday. Jace and I went and took some pictures of her over the weekend. Just four short days old! Here are a few pictures from her photoshoot. What an angel!!

I Love My Mommy

Riley singing an original song called, "I Love My Mommy." I was so glad I had my camera close so I could get it on tape. I love how Payton is Riley's little Echo.

The House

For those of you who don't know, Jace and I bought a house! Yay for us. It isn't final yet. We don't actually close until April 12th. We are excited, but we are definately nervous, and holding our breath until it is a done deal. Here are a few pictures that Jace took during the inspection. We will be making a few changes (mostly paint, and putting in a salon), but overall, it is pretty much move-in ready. We didn't expect to find something move-in-ready in our budget, so we were really happy that everything has fallen into place so far. We got past the biggest hurdle, which is the inspection. So now we just wait. I didn't put up any pictures of the bedrooms. There are four bedrooms. It isn't huge, but it is definately more space than we have now. Stay tuned!

It is just a small detail, but I really love the red front door!

The Kitchen. Small, but WAY MORE functional that the Kitchen we have now.

The Upstairs Bathroom

Family Room downstairs

Second Kitchen. This will be converted into my Salon.

The downstairs Bathroom. I like green, but we will be saying goodbye to this bright green for sure. It is a little neon for my taste.

Happy Birthday To Me!

My Birthday was on Monday, March 8th. We celebrated it on Saturday, and I must say that I had a great birthday. We went to see Avatar, then Jace booked a pedicure for Stephanie and I (this was much needed). That night I got Maccaroni Grill take-out for dinner. It was a super fun day! Jace made me a beautiful cake with the help of his super creative design team! Thanks for making my birthday so fun, Babe!

Finger Painting

We had Cade and Ava over for a sleepover last weekend. Here are some pictures of them finger painting. Our girls just LOVE to finger paint. I think it is one of their favorite activities for sure. Payton has a bit of a 3D artistic approach, as you can see.

Oh, That Dirty Little Face...

You know, our little Payton can be a bit of a challenge for us sometimes, but there are just SO MANY things that I absolutely adore about this girl. Her dirty Little face is one of them. It doesn't matter how many time you wash her face in a day, she pretty much always looks like this. How is it possible for this girl to have so much sweet and so much sass at the same time? Don't you just want to smootch that face!

4 Months Old

Our Angel boy is already 4 months old! Time is just passing us by. I wanted to take a few pictures of him just in case we forget to set up the lights and actually take some formal pictures. I did that when he was 2 months old, and now I am glad that I did, because we got busy with life, and it just didn't happen. So these window-light pictures are my "just-in-case" pictures. I think that the last one is my favorite.

Tickelish Boy

This is just a fun video of Jace tickeling Kambell. He squeels like a girl sometimes. It makes us laugh. For some reason my camera keept going out of fucus. It is kind of annoying.

3 Decades Old!

Jace's birthday was yesterday. He is now 3 decades old! That sounds so much older than it is, doesn't it! It was a great day. I talked to His brother/boss ahead of time, and got him the day off. We had some lunch, shopped around to find his birthday present (he wanted a panini press). The crowthers came over to have cake with us, and then we got some yummy takeout! I also booked him a massage, but he decided to cancel it because we will be in Duchesne in two weeks, and he wanted to wait for a massage from my sister, Shanna. Those of you that have ever had one of her massages know why it would be worth the wait. Overall, it was just good to have some time together to hang out.

Here are a couple pictures of the birthday boy, and the cake I made for him. He asked me, What kind of cake are you making me? My response was, I am making a cake for YOU. Chocolate. Is there any other kind besides chocolate?" His response, "good point." Well, it was sloppy, and as we all know I suck at piping. This is why I have been doing it on family cakes. Practice makes perfect, right? At least it tasted delicious.
