Wedding Flashback with Stephanie!

One of my best friends in Logan, Stephanie Hyde is building her photography portfolio and needed some more bridals. She asked me and I agreed BUT I made her get her dress and do it with me! LOL we were both married about two years ago so it was so much fun getting all dressed up again! My mom even came and helped! What we did is Stephanie would take some pictures of me to get the settings all right, then we would switch spots and I would take some of her. hahaha I wonder what all the people who passed us thought of two brides taking pictures of each other! It was really fun and we had a lot of good laughs. We also got a lot of congratulations! ( ; If anyone is looking for a photographer for wedding, family, portraits, babies, you should definitely get in touch with Stephanie! She does an incredible job and is very affordable! Also take time to notice how awesome I did at taking Steph's pictures! haha I was so proud of myself, and Stephanie never got bridals before her wedding so better late then never! Take a look and Enjoy!

I copied the 3 links to her posts with the pictures! Also here is some shots of us having a dress battle at the end of the shoot! We can never be serious longer than 3 seconds! Everyone in our classes and probably most our professors can attest to that!

The joys of life!

This last sunday we got to go to baby Kaison's blessing down in St. George. Kaison belongs to Brad and Meagan Nelson, and he has two siblings Faith and Kelton. They are a darling family and I am so happy we got to go spend time with them over the Labor Day weekend.




Jason's sister Laurie and her husband Brandon also had a baby named Adam this July, but sadly I don't have a picture to post.

This puts us at a grand total of 17 nieces and nephews for Jason and I counting both sides of our family. We love them all so much and they bring so much joy into our lives!

Jason's barrel role on the tube!

Jason kept talking about how he wanted to try a flip on the tube and we all thought he was going to kill himself trying. You should have seen our shocked faces when he actually pulled it off! I was so impressed! This is the second time he did it and it wasn't nearly as good as the first but still pretty cool!

Lake Powell (aka my favorite place in the world)

We got to squeeze in one short trip to Lake Powell this summer and it was so much fun! My parents, Jared, Emily, Halle, and of course Dash and Morrie. I wish it would of been longer but we still had a blast.
I love this pic of Halle, she looks like such a Diva!
Jason decided he wanted to do my hair one night and spent a lot of time too.
TA'DA this is the finished project. I have to say i was very very impressed! I had no idea Jas could braid hair that good.
The man himself...
We had a lot of fun tubing, here's one with the four of us.
I looked over when we were driving to camp and saw Morrie asleep on Jason like this! hahaha I was laughing so hard!

The doggies liked getting on the tube with us!


We had such a fun trip, thanks to everyone who came! Hope we can go again next year a few more times!!!

NEW YORK NEW YORK!

Jason had a business trip to New Jersey and New York a few weeks ago and i got to tag a long. At the end of the trip we spent a couple of days in Manhattan and my mom came and met us. We had a lot of fun and did our favorite things to do in New york... Eat (Angelo's Pizza, Del'arte, and Serendipity to name my favorites), Broadway, and site see! Usually in that order! We were able to see a The Adams Family, and Catch Me If You Can on broadway. I especially loved Catch Me If You Can! Now i am obsessed with the whole story and am reading the book now. Here are a few pictures!





I usually have only visited New York in the winter time so it was nice to go in the summer and spend time in central park. It is beautiful and there is so many things to do there! We went back a few times because we loved walking around and listening to the different musicians and watching artists do their thing.
Mmmm I was excited to take Jason to Serendipity. He was very suprised at how small it was and didn't love his food but who cares about the food? It is all about the frozen hot chocolate and it was delicious!

The beautiful Manhattan Temple!
On the ferry in front of the Statue of Liberty
I was also really excited to take Jason to China Town because I thought with his knowing the language and all he could get me some sweet deals on bags! Yeah my plan totally blew up in my face. One of the purse people Jason started talking to was like, "why are you speaking chinese to me, are you a cop?" When the others found out they changed their dialect so he couldn't understand them anymore. O well.. so much for that plan, but he still LOVED china town and we ate some really good soup dumplings. He was also really excited because they were selling dragon fruit so he bought one and had me and my mom try it. It was pretty good!

We also visited Little Italy and that was really cool too. I had never been there either and it was awesome! Over all we had a great trip and I am so grateful we had the opportunity to go together!
