Heard Around The House By Evelyn:

"Milk comes from cows, water comes from horses."
"Don't cry I love you". (when I pretend I am sad)
(Talking to her stuffed animal Rosebud) I'm so happy with you, I'm so proud of you!"
Elevator = Alligator
Gapuum = Vaccuum
"I need a snack, right now!"
"Lyla is my sister"
"Love daddy, mommy, Lyla"
"Are we going to church?, I LOVE CHURCH"
Situp = Spitup

Tanning




Ok so, I am pretty desperate to feel cuter lately. Something that helps sometimes is going to a tanning salon. I only go in the winter maybe once every 3-5 months or so. Plus its free for me with my gym membership. I know you all think I am way tan already...but I still have whiteness for me. I didn't get to spend time getting very tan over the summer being hugely prego and all. Things I HATE about tanning salons....EVERYTHING!!
1)I walk in to look at a girl who looks like this one....They think it looks good to be black/orange but it looks awful to have skin like that. I want to talk to them in 5 years when they find out they have skin cancer.
2)Every time I go I say I just want 10 min. in the lowest bed they have. Here is the convo: Them: now it says you go in our lowest bed...that only burns the first 2 layers of your skin...but if you should try this one because it burns through 6 layers of skin. me:(thinking in head...no thanks I don't want to look like you and get skin cancer. How can anyone upgrade to something that sounds sooo bad?) no thanks I will stick with the lowest one.
Them: If you buy one of our tanning lotions for $60 dollars today you can save 5 dollars. Me: no thanks I will stick to putting on sunscreen and my $5 tanning lotion from walmart.
3)I hate the stupid stickers they have there as well. They are sooo trashy.
4)Every magazine they have to look at while you are waiting is basically porn. horrible.
5)Snobville, where every mean girl likes to work. Seriously. I think the peeps who hire ask them...ok can you be really stuck on yourself?? Check. Are you willing to become black or orange and put your health in danger? Check Check!!
6)Any guy who goes tanning is well....so lame. I am sorry. But, that orange/black skin looks even worse on them. I laugh every time a guy walks out from a bed..ridiculous right??
7)Last but not least....I get in my bed close it and think...what am I doing and why am I here?? I am going to get cancer. Hence it does make me feel a little prettier to get a little glow. Maybe I will go in another 2-3 months maybe I won't. I just had to blog my feelings.

Seen Around Here....










Photos of us lately. Lyla is getting to be soo fun. She is chunking up pretty good and I LOVE CHUBBY BABIES. Evelyn is talking up a storm and going potty a lot. Life is so fun with these two girls. We love our family. I am so grateful to be a mommy. Notice how I we can never get Lyla to look at the camera. ha ha.

Oh Fall We Will Miss You So....






My favorite season ever....FALL!! The chill in the air, the changing leaves, the smell, the photoshoots with the leaves, Halloween, walks with the family, the park, the mountains and the Y, the canyons. It is so beautiful here in Provo. I feel like it doesn't really exist in our soon to be home town Logandale NV. Maybe a few trees have changing leaves, the air might get a little cooler...if we are lucky. I really don't know what I will do next fall with out this!! Maybe I can paint some trees there for my photoshoots:). Provo oh how I love you so.

Kinda Creepy:/



There is a doll around our house. She belonged to my sister Kylee when she was little. Kylee named her Eyela. We inherited Eyela after Evelyn became attached while playing at Grammy & Papa's house. Kylee said Evelyn could take care of her now. I used to think she was a cute/normal doll. Until I saw Toy Story 3 and she looks just like "Big Baby". And I think Big Baby is scary. Evelyn doesn't seem to mind. However Trent and I are a little creeped out. ha ha. Do you think they look similar??

Beautiful Inside & Out:




This was the funnest shoot I had ever done. This is my amazing friend Carli Carter. I got paired up with her when I started attending MDA (muscular dystrophy) camp. Kendra and I attended for 3 years. She went with Mandy May and I got to have Carli. She is such an sweet person. Those 3 years really changed my life for good. I realized how easy my life is and how much kids with that disease enjoy life. Carli lives in Provo and asked me if I could take her seniors. I was so excited. She is a natural in front of the camera and is so photogenic and beautiful. Taking seniors is deff my favorite shoot to do. You can capture so much about the person. These fall colors were unbelievable.To see more of this shoot see my photo blog.

Lately:

1)We have killed our 6th mouse in our house, and I still think they came from our couches. Very frustrating that we keep having more...at least we are killing them though.
2)After changing Evelyn's 3rd poopy diaper today she said Mom, I want to use the toilet, Everyday Mommy. Alright then...cross our fingers she is ready!!
3)We are getting very excited for Trent to get done with school and to move back to our hometown Logandale, NV. I have to admit I never pictured living there for the rest of my life while growing up, but now the thought is growing on me:)
4)Poor little Lyla is teething and soaking everything in sight with drool.
5)Trent and I bought some new clothes for ourselves finally. I think has boosted both of our spirits:)
6)It's so much fun to see how Evelyn and Lyla react to each other now. They just adore each other...wait till they are teenagers fighting over clothes right??
7)My sister Elliah found out she is having a baby girl..we are so happy for her.
8)I am wanting to do photo shoots nonstop in this fall season. The colors are AMAZING:)
