for the love of blogging...

Okay, I must admit, lately I have become OBSESSED with following and adding all sorts of new blogs....who knew there was so  much fantastic talent, insight, and great thought out there in this great land. I am the first to admit my blog has NOTHING any all of you out there and because of you I am getting SO inspired but what I can do with not only my home but with Everything out there... LOVE IT!! I find myself in my spare time (when that might be ) reading..reading..clicking...readinf some more- my oh my I want to get my groove on and get things done! I have a goal- house is first priority--redifining myself second and well let's just face it everything else will come next.... I am on a path of inspiration and no one shall get in my way( and that includes you Scott) ha ha ha well I might need his help just a bit- ah but he loves it-NOT ( i just like to make him think it's a good thing)... I have already startes on my sweetie pies room: Theme.... Shabby chic with a horse twist( her thoughts not mine). As I thought how in the world am i going to incorporate the beauty of shabby chic with the rustic feel of horses i did the unspeakable.... painted all the horse stuff tallyn didn't want in his room anymore PINK- WORKED PERFECTLY!!! now I just have to finish her bedding and some wall decor then I will post some pics for you to see.... I have said it many times, sky and I have a bit of country running through our souls- we both would LOVE to have a horse but daddy says " HELL to the NO", go figure, but RC cars are totally aloud to take over my empty living room..... Don't worry sky- mommy will figure it out- one day I promise a ranch house for just us( oh and the ranch hen to clean all the stuff up---ha ha , who am I kidding, I don't do horse poop!!!

Well stil cute minus all their frozen toes...

I love having family and I only wish there were more of us with a little less contention... Sometimes it is a bit hard knowing that we are all trying to be a happy family but that also Scott and I aren't married anymore- things are definitely different- I think we all try a bit harder to push through and make an effort but I still sit back and wish that all our family memories were happy and filled with laughter--- I guess this is what comes with life- heartache, joy, laughter, love ,sadness, peace, but atleast we have beautiful children to bring us ALL JOY:)

Did I mention....

I could not have picked a more FREEZING DAY to have done Outdoor pictures in UTAH- WOW it was bitter and boy oh boy the kiddos were troopers:)

Stay tuned for the next one - they were DONE and chilled to the bone..lol

LOVE...LOVE...LOVE....

There is no such thing as a bad pic with these two girls:)

We did these photos not only for my personal christmas cards but for their nanny(ie:grandma Jan) shhhhh they don't know her name is really JAN- to cute and so innocent:)

cousins ....

this is one of my favorite pitures of these two girls.... both of which are soooo photogenic:)

sky and lil have so much fun with eachother..

Which one- who knows....

So I love searching for new ideas but just cannot decide on the FINAL look...

I really want something Light and Cheery but yet Classy and Fun....

A place where my kids cannot drop and go like the rest of our home,

NOW if I could just get some help from a certain MAN in the house- this is actyally the HARDEST PART!!!

Just wanna start decorating our New'old House.....

Photoshop...REALLY!

Last night for an hour I tried to create a photo collage of pictures to post on my blog but - HELLO... I am horrible at trying to figure out this new program PHOTOSHOP..... why can't something for once be Simple! I am not good at reading manuls or understanding half of what they say but this is just ridiculous.... I love photography and all the FUN things people do with their photoshop but I do not have much time and what time I do have I still cannot get it:( I am hoping I can get something done sooner rather then LATER.... Stay tuned or not cuz I am not promising MUCH..... You just might get a simple edited photo!!!

Photoshop...REALLY!

It's All about what you love...

Okay, so for awhile now I have been talking about me working and all the hours I don't have any more and well... THIS IS WHY!!! I manage this FaBuLoUs store called Persnickety Clothing in the south towne mall, and well it may take me away from most of the things I used to do and sometimes from the people I Love most but, Atleast I love my job:) How many people can say that..... I of course love it more cuz of all the CUTE clothes SKyler gets to have ( although she really has plenty) but atleast she loves them as much as me. I love this clothing line so much that I think I am Craig and Corinne's BIGGEST cheerleader for getting Persnickety out there in the world..... I mean I am crazy about getting my mom to rep for us down in the" BIG D", It would do GREAT:)  Sure hope you don't mind reading my little plug for the store but if you buy it - you will LOVE It:)   oh and FYI... if you wanna rep for us give me a call.

Oh the sweet sounds of music coming from the little girls... Dear Santa, bring me some ear plugs PLEASE!!

It really is cute but kinda loud- if only SOMEONE new how to actually play that piano.....

And Tallyn making us laugh- Especially EASTON!!!

Tallyn is SO lucky to have ALL the girls in his life ADORE him SO....

Waiting SOOOOO patiently in the morning (5:30 to be exact, in the am...)

Maybe not the best SHOT... but it was funny!
