So Thankful

I love these kids, and I love being a mom :)






(Side note for Ann... we borrowed your picnic table for Thanksgiving :) Is that okay? It is now safe in your backyard...)


Makiah always gives her Dad these HUGE smiles. She loves him so much!


Thanksgiving is such a fun relaxing holiday. I love it more and more every year. I am so grateful that I have these two in my life! I am so lucky to be a mom.

Title???

I had such a fun week! Dallas and I got to go out twice, thanks to our great friends who babysat for us :) We went to dinner on our anniversary (Applebee's :)) On Friday we went to see New Moon with some friends. I really liked the movie, I was actually really impressed! I really didn't like Twilight so I wasn't expecting the best- but it was good! I definitely recommend it.

Yesterday I got to do two photo shoots, and I had a blast! I was so nervous, but everything turned out :) Check out my photo blog to see the pics!

Random story about Evan: This morning I asked him if he wanted to get married one day (He has been so into weddings lately) and he said "yes, I wear a white dress?" (with a very excited expression on his face). So I had to explain that girls wear the dresses and the boys wear suits. Then I asked who he wanted to marry... no answer... so I started naming some of his friends just to tease him. He said "No, I marry Kiah!" :) I thought it was cute, I remember wanting to marry my dad when I was little :) I think it is so sweet how much he loves his Kiah :)

4 years!

Happy Anniversary Dallas! Four years ago from this very moment I was anxiously waiting to become your wife! It was such a perfect wedding day and I am so glad that I chose you!


Last year I shared our wedding video and this year I wanted to share our wedding announcement :) This is totally unique and we love it!!! We asked Dallas' sister, Candi, to make our announcements and she used this picture as an example. We really liked it and decided to keep it that way :) This picture was taken at Lagoon after a long, hot day. I was actually very sick from the heat and rides, so we got some Icees to cool down. If we would have realized that we were getting our engagement picture taken that day maybe we would've taken time to do our hair :) We do have other engagement pictures taken by Candi and my brother Brandon that we love so much (I'll have to post some of them).


We were able to get each other a fun gift this year :) Check out our new furniture (and cute lamp)!!! I am so in love with it!

Another freebie

Check out this site: https://secured.canvaspeople.com/ I am so excited to get my free 8X10 canvas! (or $55 off a larger canvas size) Now what picture should I choose? Really, I can't decide... and what size?

I thought a wedding photo would be fun, we don't have any hanging in our house right now. Also, we are celebrating 4 years this week!





I also love these photos Kim took...

This one might be my top pick...


I don't know about this one for a canvas... but I love it!
Let me know what you think, I can't decide!

More *smiles*

These extras are for you Mom! I wanted to show them all to you, but really there are so many! Here are some of my favorites...


Evan was being so sweet that day, and Kiah would have none of it!

Mmmm





I love this series of photos... here we are just trying to get those two to hold still! Just for one minute would do... but no!
Just a side note: Evan is doing so well with potty training! Yeay Evan! Yesterday and today he has only had one accident (so far). It is so nice only having one child in diapers :)

Family photos :)












I love you Evan :)

Definitely a fav...

I just love getting pictures done! It is kinda stressful figuring out how you want everything to be, but once you get that part all figured out it is a blast :) Kim Davis did our family photos and I love them! I have grown to love, love, love candid photos. Especially with kids! It makes the whole process of taking photos less stressful. Kim was so flexible and she was up for anything. I couldn't pass up the chance to get pictures taken during this beautiful time of year! I love the Autumn time here, So perfect! Thanks again Kim, you are awesome!

One of those days

Today (and yesterday) was just one of those days. For all of us. One of those days that you just want to throw your hands up and say "I give up!" Last night I was online searching for airline tickets... without a trip in mind... I just wanted to go home :( I finally remembered how expensive airline tickets are, and how poor I am. I gave up and just cried instead. Even though I am now a parent with a nice little home for my family, I still get home sick. I think I am okay now. The kids are in bed and my house is now in tact (despite the broken dryer). I can now *finally* relax. I took these pictures this morning when we were trying to cheer up the kids. Just looking at them made me feel happier. I thought I would share...

Poor Kiah fell down and scraped up her nose this week, it looks pretty bad.



Cute little hands :)
Airplane!


Kiah looked so cute today, but didn't want her picture taken. She has a little tear falling down her cheek.
