Beautiful Brown Eyed Baby Girl

I love those dark brown eyes!

Being Domestic, Crafty and Active

I made pear butter. I'd never had it before and have decided it's not the best thing in the world of toast, but it is yummy eaten just like apple sauce.






And I made these name blocks for my new little nephew.






I walked a 5k. I even jogged for like two minutes. And climbed a giant hill.

Brajon and Joyce

This happy couple got married at the Oakland, CA temple. They were all kissy, huggy, eye batting in love. It was cute. Here's just some of the day.

Thomas took this one. I like the view point.

My Little Brother and Me

I did a wedding. I don't normally do weddings because they take a lot of time...on the day and with so many photos to go through. But this was for a friend and it was a fun day!

See how much enthusiasm I started out with!



I brought along this goofball to help out.


Ok, that was a mean picture. He's more of a pretty cool little brother.



Me at work.

Thanks for that one Thomas. I'm off to do some sit ups.

And this is me at the end of the day. I got sick. What horrible timing for a nasty cold to sneak up on me.

I look tired and worn, but the flowers sure look pretty! So next time I get really sick and have to go out in public, I'm just going to carry gorgeous flowers around and no one will notice me.

Baby Strap

I decided to test out my very limited sewing skills and finagle some sort of grocery cart strap for the baby. I didn't want a big bulky seat cover because I already have enough crap kids stuff in my car and just wanted something I could keep in the diaper bag and not be in the way. Only I didn't see anything for sale like that, so I made my own. And the amazing thing is...it worked!

What we do when it's too hot to go outside.

I guess not a lot happened with our family in August because the only pictures I have are of this wrestling match between Jared and Abby.


It ended well.

Baby Torture

For Peter and Rustin...I'm finally blogging again.

We had a family reunion waaaay back in July on Nathan's mom's side of the family. This was our second one and they're so much fun!

Grandma and Grandpa



Silly Madie




I wonder if they're related?...jeesh they look alike.


Jared


Aunts Kayla and Amanda



Grandma Susie. Too bad this cute moment isn't actually in focus.


Abby was being super sweet.




My kids LOVE their great-grandparents!


Grandpa Kim


The Boys


Look Rustin, you're finally on my blog!


And look at this cutie-pie couple. They're having a baby! I'm so excited for them!!!




We love these guys.

We really, really do.
