Month: February 2009

Chris' brother Ben and his family got us an awesome gift this year for Christmas - pears! We were actually thinking about sending them something similar. Chris said they got a fruit of the month club

There is something about Jessica Simpson that just annoys me. I think it was the reality show and I sure it was the editing - but she just seems like such a bimbo and I refuse to pay money to someone

After our trip through the Grand Escalante Stair Case we finally made it to Bryce Country Cabins for the night. It was a relief to spot the cabins along the side of the road. Although they look

Did you know that the most popular day to get married in Vegas is Valentine's Day? If I was marrying Chris again today in Vegas I would wear this gorgeous Group USA gown:

Since we were in the desert for two weeks in a one month span (CA then Vegas) my hands have been SO dry. I tried just doing lotion a lot - I mean A LOT! But it was only temporary. I then went for the

I'm not so sure about fashion week so far - nothing is grabbing me. Except Nicole Miller - she has some great asymmetrical dresses and shirts that I love! I can't wait to see the rest of the week.

I saw a girl wearing cropped pants and tall boots at the mall today. It is an odd look - I'm really not sure what to think of it. What do you think?

I thought this would be fun for a price sheet for my weddings - $10 each! It is silkscreened onto wood.

It is funny that Chris wasn't into photography at all when we met. But two of his all time favorite songs reference photography! One is Paul Simon's Kodachrome and the other is Def Leppard's Photograph.

This is as close to lost as we have ever been on one of our trips. We were on our way to Tropic, Utah for the night and we were about 2 hours away on this unnamed road, here's the video for the details... We

Just south of the dam for Lake Powell is the famous Horseshoe Bend. You may have seen this in photos but it is quite impressive in person. We sat and watched the boats in the river for a while and

Our next stop was Lake Powell, a which is a man made lake that is over 500 feet deep at it's deepest. The lake was made by damming up the Colorado River and it created an awesome recreation area for everyone

My mom has several sets of china - I'm not sure why. But she likes all of them and when we got married I asked for one set (my favorite blue set) and she instead offered me the "fruit" set as I call

This was our camp site at Zion. We could have had several tents in our site, it was huge! But remember that it was 115 during the day on our trip, and at night it was 95 degrees, so it was pretty tough

There is a tunnel on the road through Zion that we wanted to show you so we turned on the video camera and put something together. The best part about leaving a camera running is that you get to hear how

Duke is such a people dog. He loves to be around us ALL the time. If I move rooms, he follows me. He was wrapped up in a tight ball looking cute in my office today:

From our National Park trip last July, we left off at our arrival to Zion National Park. (Click on "Vacations" at the top of the page if you need to catch up) By far this was the most beautiful of the

I've got a thing for cake stands - not really sure where it comes from. We registered for a really cute one when we got married, but since someone bought us a random ugly one we kept it instead (didn't

When we were in Lake Tahoe the girls had a spa morning at Squaw Valley. They had this magazine called Sunset with an ad for Safeway featuring Sushi candy. Here is the photo from the ad: Look closely
