So busy lately, but....

I always have time to scan the internet for inspiring things.

First, you must check out this blog http://jenniferkimphotography.com/blog/ she is a photographer that I do not know but love. She takes lots of pictures of the traditional 1st year korean birthday parties. Some of these people go all out and I am so wanting to do a traditional party for Lyla. We threw Cache a big party and although nothing like some of these people on the blog it was pretty good. However, I wish my husband or inlaws would have told me about a few of the traditional things I left out,just not really knowing about them.

So, this leads me to the second thing I fell in love with, I want this Hanbok for Lyla's birthday. We will be in Utah for Christmas so I was going to have her pictures taken there and thought the furry vest would be so cute with the snow.

Here is Cache in his 1 year hanbok



The next thing I fell in love with was this dress. This picture is of some girl who again I don't know but this is their engagement picture. I wonder if dave would retake some engagement photo's so I could wear a dress like this. If you know someone getting engaged you need to tell them to wear a dress like this one, so cute!


And lastly, we are attempting to make some vases like these for a primary activity. Hopefully they turn out just as cute! Don't you love hydreangas (how in the world do you spell that word?) They are so clean and cute looking.


I love the inspiration. Doesn't it make you feel so good to look at beautiful things? Its a good pick me up during nap time!

And one last post....




I have this crazy obsession with Jersey Shore. I know it is so sad and probably one of the worst shows on television but it is like passing an accident and you just cant stop looking and your yelling at everyone else to stop looking so traffic can keep going. This show is a total wreck from beginning to end, it degrades women, it makes "hooking up" with strangers as necessary as going to the bathroom but I just can't stop watching. It's absolutely outrageous and for that I am addicted. I have my very own "situation" (only the glasses not the attitude, he will get his butt kicked if he treats women the way the "real situation" treats women.) But doesn't he just look so cute!

Lake Powell 2010


Lyla's little bed on the beach

Cache and Dave went out on the tube...I was holding my breathe the whole time praying cache wouldn't fall off.

He could have just sat there and swam the whole time



I love this picture...Dave playing football, dad shooting the water gun, and cache in his own world playing the water.

Totally debated on posting this picture...I did just give birth 8 months ago and am still working on the weight, but I had to prove I did wake surf.

Clayton, you are a dork!

The other thing cache had to do everytime we were on the boat...drive. I kept telling Clayton and my dad to be careful he may just crank the wheel and we will all fly out. Luckily that didnt happen!

Lake Powell is always great...however, we all agreed a houseboat is a for sure next year. I felt good getting on the wakeboard and surf board with my post pregnancy body even if I could only last a few minutes. Wow that was a lot of work! We had fun except that I seriously broke or spranged my toe. It's still all black and blue.

Happy 8 Years



Yesterday, September sixth, Dave and I shared our 8 year anniversary. We didn't make a big deal because one, we were driving home from lake powell and two, I told dave that this year and next should just be low key anniversaries and our 10 year we go all out. Since traffic was awful, we didn't get home until almost 4 pm, and we had just spent all day driving anniversary #8 was not the best. However, after 8 years of marriage and a year and a half of dating I know I am with the one I am meant to be with.

Happy 8 Years!
