family pictures Fall/2013

My friend Leslee from 'Crimsonlily Photography' did an amazing job on our pictures this year. 

 I love them all!  We just got our cute puppy Koda and my kids were dying to bring him

 to our family pictures. ha!

they turned out perfect...

Boston~14 yrs

Hayes~8 yrs

Olivia~8 yrs

Ivy~ 5 yrs

birthday lunch!

lately we like to do birthday hikes instead of birthday lunches! Ha! 

Jenn was here from Hawaii and we were planning to go to the P!NK concert for my bday and 

then Pink cancelled her concert! ugh!  instead we had a fun time at "Thriller." 

The weather was beautiful and Jenn was dying to see the fall leaves and color in the mountains

so we went on a fun hike up south fork then met the girls at "tortilla bar" for lunch.  

It was delicious! 

love these girls and so grateful to have such good friends! 

and of course we had to bring our dogs... ha!

the newest member of our family...

"Dakota"... kids call him "koda"  and we are so in love with him.

He's a cavapoochon, and the sweetest, cuddliest pup ever. 

 He is Sadie's brother same exact mom and dad.  

Hayes said in the car when we picked him up from the airport, "we are 

going to be the happiest family ever!"  and "all my dreams are coming true!" 

 It's been pure joy here in our home.
