my latest creation

these dresses took way longer to make than i'd planned...but i was pretty pleased with how they turned out. i was up until 2:30 last saturday night making them. i just really wanted them to be ready for church the next day! so, although it meant us being late, and me being ornery all day...the dresses were a hit :)

worst blogger in the world

i think i'm giving up. i've tried to be good at this, but i'm no Emily R., or Tiffany Z. i am not cut out for this! Can i still blog even if i only post once a month??? or should i just throw in the towel all together?!? i'm just not clever enough, like Todd, and Carie, and Johnny, and we don't have enough going on in our lives, like Mindy, and Cassie, to keep the posts coming like some of you. What i need to do it get Reid in on it, too (rachelle, how did you get brad to post that great post?!?)

Anyway, i'm not giving up. . . yet. but please don't bother checking my blog more than once a week. I feel guilty when i get emails from Anne saying that she's waiting for something new...keep those expectations low, and we'll all be pleasantly surprised :)

calling all cambridge-ites

i might get in a lot of trouble for just announcing it this way (usually we leave it to Lisa to invite the whole world) ...but here i go anyway :) we're having a little Utah gathing for all those from our time in Cambridge. Candace is hosting it at her Lifestyles home and it's going to be a blast!!! So, if you are going to be in UT and you'd like to get together with old friends from Cambridge, email me for details!!

Famous, at last!

My brother, Kevin, got this gig a few months ago, i don't know why it's taken me this long to post it!!! any of you who know him, know that this is the most PERFECT role for him! I actually don't even know if he's acting, or just being himself. either way, he's great and i love him!

My sweet Grace

I just have to say that i love this little lady so much!!! I've complained so much the past few days about being cooped up in this house, getting sick, missing out on Halloween parties, etc. And i just looked at this picture i took today and thought, "i am the luckiest person in the WORLD to be cooped up with my sweet little Grace." Granted she is napping right now, and all moms know it's easiest to love your kids when they're napping....but i REALLY do feel SO lucky to have Grace as my best little friend. besides her dad, there's no one else i'd rather be cooped up with!!

Thanks for putting up with me, Grace Elizabeth!!!

Are you a dentist?

Every person we met on Halloween night asked Reid this same question....i guess i can see why! I wanted to have some theme this year, and after careful consideration we went with teeth. Reid was a good sport and wore this toothbrush all evening. Grace was happy to be the "toof fairy" and Abby made the cutest tooth ever!!! Grace and Abby were still too sick to be out long, but we at least got to show off our costumes to a few people.

What i want to know is what can we dress up as next year that will get everyone to ask "are you a lawyer?" All ideas are welcome :)







The night before Halloween we all watched the Wiz a Wiz of Oz (grace's absolute FAVORITE movie) and carved pumpkins. I must admit that i'm quite proud of my little Spider Pumpkin!!
