Mase!

I have so much to catch up on, but I was just uploading our pictures from Bear Lake and had to blog this cute one of Mase. I love this little man so much. Even if he does boss me around and his little face has stinker written all over it.... he is the cutest little stinker I know.

giveaway!!

My cute friend Analia is super talented and is having a giveaway on her blog for the cutest beanies!! Check out her stuff here!

mase loves dinosaurs...

and all of his other animals. He is still at it- lining up his animals throughout the house. I love how he even lays down by them to rest! lol!



This morning Josh didn't have to work so we took the boys to the dinosaur museum and had a great time! I spent $50 for that membership a while back, and I think it is the best $50 I have spent! The boys love the dinosaur museum! In fact before I even told the boys we were going there today Mason asked if we could go to the dinosaur park all on his own! It also gets us in at lots of other fun places and the boys other favorite... the zoo once a month!!

if you feel like crying....

Sunday Evening

Last night Josh and I took a drive to the Bountiful Temple. I have a wedding coming up and I am doing some pre-wedding pictures there tonight for the bride and groom and just wanted to go check it out from a photography perspective.

Hard to believe Josh and I were married here almost 5 years ago next month!

The twins in their soccer outfits

Oh wow... I was lucky enough to stumble upon this beautiful bride modeling for me.... don't worry I didn't pose her. She came up with this on her own!!

Oh woops... that wasn't a bride... that was just my handsome husband posing as a bride!! lol! I love this picture of him... he's cute.

Mase's Lineup!!

Mase is really into all of his animals lately, and Josh and I have been dying watching him gather all his animals together and lining them up in different areas of the house. Oh and watch out if Maddox wants to even touch a single dinosaur!! That would just be asking for trouble! Mason every once in a while will be kind though and let him play with a goat or if he is lucky a cow! I am glad he is doing so good talking and everything or I might be concerned about him liking to line things up so much since I think it is a characteristic of autistic children. Don't worry everyone... I think he just really likes to have all of his animals to himself!!

{Please ignore the laundry hamper in the kitchen with a t-ball tee!! lol! Nice photography work by me!}

Long Weekend!

{So this picture pretty much sums up how we felt after our weekend!! I love how Bruno is passed out on the floor too! He has a rough life!}

Saturday Josh played in a golf tournament, and then we all went to the park for a family BBQ with lots of Josh's relatives. Then after the BBQ I had a family session to do. Then Josh had to clean a Zion's Branch etc.... Then the really crazy part of the weekend hit on Sunday afternoon. Josh said he wasn't feeling that well, but he went and ran his 12 mile run at around 1. He came home and was feeling pretty crappy all afternoon and told me that it was the worst run he has ever had and couldn't even finish. He lounged around all day, but was kind of able to help me with the boys even though he wasn't feeling that great. We put the boys down at 8 and Josh went to bed at 8 as well. At about 945 I was in the basement and heard a loud thud. I ran up the stairs to find Josh curled up on the bathroom floor. I ran to him and his eyes were open but he wasn't responding to me. I was hysterical and screaming to him that I was going to call 911. He finally came to and said, "where am I?" After a couple of minutes he was realizing what happened and was able to carry on a conversation with me. He wasn't feeling good though and once he started to sit up he started throwing up uncontrollably. I was panicking but was able to get him cleaned up and back to bed. Then I decided I was going to take him to the ER, he fought it pretty hard but I finally was able to get him to go. Luckily we live close by his parents and they came up to stay with the boys while I took Josh to the hospital. After 4 hours at Davis Hospital we were glad to find out he didn't have swine flu, but his blood work showed he was really dehydrated. We also think he had some kind of stomach bug too! They gave him some anti nausea medicine and some fluids through an IV and sent us home. I cancelled all of his job on Monday but he was back to work today and is feeling much better!

Very crazy weekend..... I am so glad he is ok! It was a very scary night!
