a happy day of birth

We had a fun day on February 8th.

We started the day off with surprise breakfast in bed.

 Kneaders French Toast is the best way to start off your day if you ask me. 

Kev also had another surprise on his breakfast tray.

He got an iphone for his birthday! hooray.

Later we ate a delicious Free pork salad at Kev's favorite restaurant Cafe Rio.

We had an intramural basketball game that night....and while we were at our game my old roommates and best friends came over and decorated the house and we had a little surprise party for Mr. Kevin. Little to say he wasn't expecting it at all!

 It was a wonderful day had by all.

happy valentines day.

I think these are probably the best Valentines I have ever seen. Hilarious.

Hope you have had a wonderful day filled with love and sweets!

check it out.

Oh Hey!

So guess what?

I am kinda starting to try and get a little more business with all of these mad photo skills I have been learning the last four years up here at school.

And with that I figured I should probably start getting a photo blog and website up and running for when I graduate.

It's still a BIG work in progress and I only have the temporary blog up and running, but feel free to check it out from time to time. Or if you know of anyone looking to get family photo's, or portraits done send them to my blog.

This has been kinda really scary for me...i don't know why. But I think it is finally hitting me that i'm graduating and am going to be forced to actually start this whole photo business shindig and start growing up a little. Which is both super Scary and exciting. 

Anyways just thought I'd make this little/big announcement

25.

Yesterday was a pretty special day.

It was Kevin Grants Birthday.

He is now officially half way to 50. 

He is getting pretty old.

And you know what I kind of really love this boy.

I love that he cried when he saw me in my wedding dress for the first time. And how much love this boy somehow seems to possess. It amazes me everyday with all the little things he does for me.

 We would joke when we were engaged that the only reason I was marrying him was because he was tall, wore vans, played soccer, and went to Switzerland on his mission. And of course those things were definite pluses but I secretly really love that he plays soccer...and that he lets me come play with him and his friends sometimes. I love it.

He is so good with kids and I know is going to be an amazing dad...someday...in the future. the very far future.

He loves summer and to be warm almost as much as me.

Someday we are going to go back to his mission. He is going to give me my dream of going to Switzerland. And I love him a lot for this. A lot.

He loves dogs. And it makes me sooo happy.He puts up with my random outbreaks of tears whenever I see a cute dog. I don't know what has gotten into me lately but he has put up with it really well.

He sometimes can be a dork. He blames that I brought out his weirdness since we've been married. But i know it was always inside of him.

(he'll probably kill me for putting this on here)

Happy Birthday Kevin Grant. 

I love these things and so much more about you. I am so happy we get to spend the rest of forever together. I can't wait.

Just got this little beauty in the mail yesterday.

.....and I can't wait to start using it!

color festival.

These photo's are about a year late. 

I was just looking through my pictures on my computer and saw them...and realized I never blogged about this little extravaganza we went on to Hare Krishna.

So I thought I'd put them up cause I love them, and think they are fun.

We had a grand old time. Five of us squished in a four person car for over 2 1/2 hours. And left with plenty of chalk in our teeth to last a life time. It was a fun adventure that will hopefully happen again this year!

Little Lilly.

 My sister Melissa had her baby all the way back in november...i know i'm a bit behind.

We were all so excited for her and Jason. And holy cow do they know how to make a cute baby.

Little Lillian was born on November 11, 2011.

 and get this. she was born at 11:11 pm

yeah....that's right born 11-11-11 @ 11:11!

 We had all joked around with Missy that she had to wait to have her at 11:11 but none of us really thought it would happen! It was crazy, they even got to be on the news.   

And with how cute little lilly is....that might not be the only time she is famous and gets to be on TV.

We took these the day after Thanksgiving at her 2 week mark.

Usually at two weeks babies are still really sleepy and want to be wrapped up. Well, not this little lady. She was awake the entire time and did fabulous!
