Family Fun In The Warm Nevada Sun:)


Fun with daddy on the swing. He is so great with Evelyn.

Evelyn loves this tree swing at Trent's parents house. We have got to get her one for this spring and summer. I love her expression here. I just can't get enough of her and how cute she is.

I love this photo that Trent took of us at his parents house. It's pretty rare that I get a decent looking photo of myself & Evelyn. I am out of practice on what to do, I am never in any of them anyway! Great photography skills honey. Your pretty impressive:)

Higher daddy higher...not really this was high enough!! This is the highest he ever has thrown her. He did it mainly for the photo. I assure you he is a very safe daddy. She loves when he does it.

A SPECIAL THANKS!!



I had to take some time out of my day and put a post about my AMAZING MOM!! You mean so much to me. First off, thanks for going through the trouble of having Kendra and I. I still can't believe the pain you had to go through to get us here. Thanks for always being there for me, and all the support you give me through my trials. I am so grateful you survived your accident when I was in 8th grade. I would feel so lost without you. Heavenly Father was very nice to let us keep you here. Thanks for your positive attitude always. Thanks for encouraging me to wait for Trent. I couldn't have made it through those two years without you!! Thanks for letting me call you daily just to talk. You are my best friend, and I can share my deepest feelings with you. Thanks for caring about others before yourself. Thanks for always being such a strong member of the church. You are the best example to me. Thanks for being a wonderful Grammy to Evelyn. She is very lucky to have you in her life. And, thanks for being a great mother in law to Trent. WE LOVE YOU!!

It's Been A Year!!


Today marks the one year mark of living in this house. We have loved every minute of it. It was so nice a year ago to be able to make the change from duplex in Orem to house in Provo. The area we live in now is 100 times better than before. We love being across from the park, close to BYU campus, the space, and privacy we have. When we moved a year ago we were really sad to leave our ward. We didn't think we could ever love a ward so much. But, guess what we do!! We couldn't ask for a more funner ward and have so many amazing friends. So a special thanks to the miracle that we got this house, Provo, the park, BYU 5th ward, our privacy, and BYU so close. We are having a blast here!! Also notice my huge pregnancy reflection in the window. This photo was taken a year ago. ha ha. Glad I have my body back for this spring/summer.

9 Months Old!!







We can't believe our little Evelyn is 9 months today. She sure is changing so much everyday and we love to watch her grow. Trent & I just laugh at what she has been doing lately. She is into everything and we don't know what to do with her most of the time. Keeping us busy for sure. Crawling everwhere, pulling herself up to standing. These photos were taken with my new camera. I LOVE IT!! It totally meets all the expectations I had plus more!! I am having so much fun with it. It really makes a HUGE difference in my photos. The quality is stunning. Glad I can always practice on Evelyn...never gets old. She is so photogenic and works it for the camera. Sorry Evelyn but I will be in your face with a camera FOREVER, so get used to it. LOL

Changing So Fast!!




Wow our little Evelyn has changed so much in the last month. She spends all of her time crawling and getting into everything she can get her little hands on. It is so much fun to watch her grow so sudden. And see a hint of her personality show. She is such a little sweetie and we are having so much fun with her. I am now realizing how much work being a mommy is. Once they get mobile its a whole new ball park. I am speaking too soon. She isn't even walking yet...just wait right??

A Great Day:)



We had a great Valentines Day. I started the morning off decorating the house with hearts for Trent. On them I wrote reasons why I love him. Along with that I gave him a large Hershey kiss and a card. He gave me some dark chocolate and my camera (still waiting for)!! It was so expensive that I told him he couldn't by me any flowers or anything. The best gift he gave me was a trip to the Provo temple. I hadn't done a session in over a year because of Evelyn. My brother Jacob was taking his (soon to be wife in one week) fiance through. So I really wanted to make this session. It was SO GREAT to be back. I love the spirit the temple brings in my life. It truely is the best place on earth. We are so fortunate to have one so close to us. The day ended with putting Evelyn down and we made a steak & chicken dinner and watched the movie The Fugitive. It snowed so much on Valentines Day. I was so grateful for Trent's truck 4 wheel drive is the way to go.
