Santa? Santa Who?

Last night was our ward Christmas party. And guess who was there? Santa! As you can see Levi was totally fascinated and Jamin could care less, he was only worried about the candy canes. One of our friends was taking pictures too, so hopefully he got a better shot!

Future Photographer




Jamin found my camera again. I really think he may be a photographer some day. He went with more of a creative view this time...more abstract. He covered all the important stuff: Levi eating, a cheerio that Levi dropped on the floor, and mommy sitting on the couch...the life of a photographer is just so exciting!

Gas is less than $2!


I can't believe how cheap gas is! The other day, I only paid $1.92...and today I saw it for $1.88. I don't know that I've EVER paid that little for gas. I can remember (older) people saying "I remember when gas hit $1 and I thought that was so expensive" That would be cool if it went below a dollar again, but I'll even settle for it never going above two dollars again. Wishful thinking...I know...but we can dream, right?

Domestic Graffiti!

For those of you who don't know...Domestic Graffiti is the name of the vinyl business that I started with my friend Margie. I may be partial, but it's awesome! Our website is finally up...there are still a few kinks to work out so it's still somewhat under construction. But check it out and tell me what you think! www.shopdomesticgraffiti.com

What a good big brother!

Jamin thought he would be helpful and give Levi some more cheerios. I don't think Levi was as hungry as Jamin thought....and he's supposed to be on a diet!

ashes, ashes.....

Jamin loves to do ring around the rosy. One day, I caught him doing it like a ballerina...twirling around in a circle singing "ashes, ashes" until he realized that I was watching him - then he got mad and said "no!"

Jamin found my camera...and my boots!






Surfs Up! & Trick or Treat


Happy Birthday Jamin!

Jamin was a surfer for Halloween so that was the theme of his costume birthday party. I don't have very many pictures...the morning of the party I went and bought new batteries for my camera, but they were rechargeable batteries..which I now know are not pre-charged. These are pictures I stole from my friends blog. (thanks Roxanne!)
ps- didn't I do a fabulous job on the cake?



And what 2 year old wouldn't want to help open presents?


Jamin is such a ladies man. I don't know where he learned that...maybe he bribed them with cake!

We're Still Alive!

Yes, we are still here. No, we are not ignoring anyone. And we are still alive. We've been very busy lately...and for those of you who don't believe me, I made a list of the top 10 reasons why we've been MIA for the past several months
not in any particular order:
1. I'm currently a single mom (thanks Spencer)
2. I have a 2 year old (love him, but he's crazy)
3. I have an 8 month old (4 teeth + 4 more coming= long days)
4. My new vinyl business (yeah for me and Margie...& KC)
5. Our (now my) real estate ventures
6. For some reason, my dishes and laundry never stay done
7. And my house never stays clean either!
8. New York Winters
9. Did I mention I have a 2 year old? (yes, that counts as 2 reasons)
and last but not least...
10. Everyone is busy, aren't they?
