Halle Slideshow


You'd be surprised how much time went into this. and how late we stayed up figuring it out. Halle was a good subject though.

Victoria is trying to get everything ready for her big website launch (coming soon to an internet near you), and one of the things we needed to figure out was how she was going to slide shows on her website. We found a good program for it, but we needed to figure out how to tweak it and make it work right for her site. After 2 hours we finally got it all figured out. This is kind of a test slideshow, but Halle is so cute we decided to keep it up. Victoria is going to edit the photos and add some from another shoot soon, but we figured we would let the world get a sneak peak. Let us know what you think!

Cute boy!

Last week when we were home I also was able to take some pictures of Greyden (Christina and Jared's son) he is so cute! We had fun playing in the backyard and sometimes he would laugh when the camera was pointed at him. I really have been enjoying taking pictures of people. I am very excited to see where it will take me!

Busy Week(s)


We will take some pictures once its organized so everyone can see it. But then we had to go back to Colorado right after we got everything moved over to go to Colton's endowments at the Denver Temple. Everything is scattered around our house however it was pretty amazing to be able to see my younger brother go to the temple. I am so proud of him and the choices that he has made in his life. Even in the last two months I have seen such a tremendous spiritual growth in him, I can hardly believe that he was that little boy with the curly afro that I would tie to my play kitchen chairs (yes the same ones we just moved from) just because I wanted him to play and he wouldnt want to. Hes grow a little since then........

Well in addition to Colton's endowments I did Jeremy"s senior pictures which turned out very nice and I can't wait to sit down and get them edited! He and Jordan look SO much alike it is really funny! Here is a picture of my cute husband with Jeremy (I will post some of Jeremy's pictures probably next week when we are back from Vail.)



And so our next adventure is to Vail, Colorado to Play some lacrosse! I cant wait I am SO excited to pick up a stick again and actually play against girls who are good! Our team has a bunch of people that I played with at DU as well as a friend of mine who plays at Ohio State and a few others from various Division 1 programs around the country. Jordan is also playing and I am excited to watch him beat some kids up! It will be a great week!

A lot has happened in two short weeks!

 

It has been a few weeks since we last blogged. Actually the last time was on family vacation.  First vacation update. It was awesome. First we went to Gateway, Colorado (30 min south of Grand Junction). It was a sweet resort and we spent our first day there 4 wheeling

Family Vacation 2 072

That was a ton of fun. We went to Moab for a few days after Gateway and went on some awesome hikes and we rafted to Colorado River. It was sweet. Raft trip Moab 011

I think our favorite hike was to Delicate Arch. It's the arch on all the Utah license plates. It was such an awesome hike. BY280507

That actually isn't Delicate Arch, but close enough right? I don't have those pictures on my laptop.

 

So after we got back from vacation things kind of got nuts. Victoria's sister Rachel stayed with us for a week, so we went on a quest to see how many times we could go to 7 Peaks in 1 week. I was also working a lacrosse camp the whole week. On Wednesday I had an interview with a hockey/lacrosse company based out of North Carolina who was looking for a Utah/Colorado sales rep. I felt that was a pretty good fit for me. I had a great interview with the guy, and after he took Victoria and I out for dinner to Outback (yum) and we chatted lacrosse for a while.

I ended up getting the job, so I am headed out on Monday for North Carolina to do some training, and then I will be working in Utah and Colorado. I'm way excited, and so is Victoria.

In addition to a new job, we are also getting a new place! We are moving in 2 weeks, and we couldn't be more excited. For those of you who visited us this past year you may have noticed our easy bake oven in our 4x4 kitchen. I'm pretty sure we have like 200 square feet in our current house. We are moving a few blocks to The Lexington (ohh fancy) to a very nice 2 bedroom apartment and we are very excited about it. So if you are in town you should stop by and check it out.

Victoria has been busy with her photography business, she is really starting to get stuff figured out. She will most likely have her website up and running by the end of the month. She is trying to get into doing children photography and sports. She is amazing at both, so it will be fun to watch her.

Anyway, a big update. Life is good in Provo, and we are staying busy, between our jobs, 7 Peaks Season Passes, and everything there is to do in Provo, we are having fun!

Family Vacation Update 1

We are in Grand Junction, Colorado. The armpit of the state. Luckily we made it today, ole' Clutchy held on strong for us. We will be departing on the morrow for Gateway, Colorado. I'm not sure what it is a gateway to, but I'm praying it's not hell.

Also, 3 years ago I was arrested. Please refer to this webpage for more information concern said arrest.

Thank you Kayce for the great find. Please enjoy the mugshot, more like glamor shot. Do you see that zit?!?!

Anyway, should this "Gateway" be to fun, I shall report back and let you know. Everyone can soon find out what happens if you turn off at Grand Junction and keep going! (anyone who has driven it has wondered). It's late and I will regret posting my mugshot in the morning. Goodnight moon!

kali cut my hair!

So this morning I went into the salon that Kali is working at and she cut my hair! I actually was not nervous at all but pretty excited! Well I think that she did a great job (and Jordan likes it which matters most :) ) Give her some more practice and she is going to have her own salon in no time!

( by the way sorry for the bad picture! I think I am better at taking other peoples pictures and not my own, I will get some better ones soon!)



I have been very busy trying to get things going for my business! Today I ordered my business cards and I have been trying really hard to figure this website thing out. I refuse to use templates, Jordan and I are going to learn how to do it no matter how long it takes. Good thing I remember some html from that class I took at DU a few years back...... even though the teacher was evil. Anyways here is the home page (it may show up not centered, dont worry it will be).
