one of the cutest videos of all time

aiddan likes to make up stories and she told her mom this one and everyone laughed so she kept it going. i finally got it on video. the ending is my favorite. the events discussed in the video are totally fiction. debbie wanted to me make sure i added that. lol. this is super cute! enjoy!

btw. make sure your sound is up!

my new flip flops :)

or slippers, as beth calls them. or thongs as debbie calls them. lol. debbie is steve's mom, beth's mother-in-law. she flew out from las vegas and spent a couple of weeks here too. we overlapped by a week, so i got to spend some time with her. she is an extremely talented crocheter. she made a ton of barbie clothes for peyton and blankets for all of the kids and while she was here she made several pairs of flip flops. and she made me a pair! i can't wait to wear them! the weather hasn't been good enough since she finished them for me to wear them outside. i dont want to ruin them. anyway. the first pair is mine and i'll post a group shoe shot after. rofl.

before

after :)

all of them. well. she did one more pair before she left but after i got pix.

cool shot i got while she was working on them

thanks debbie!!! :D

chelsea and austin's ring dance (aka junior prom)

i took some pictures for this really sweet girl, chelsea, and her prom date, austin. it was so much fun. out here they call junior prom 'ring dance' because thats when they get their class rings. i'd never heard it called that before. it was totally a last minute thing to decide to have me take pictures so we were very limited on time. but we had such a good time! we took some pictures at austin's house and then on the way to drop them off at the restaurant, chelsea's mom, penny, (who is also really cool and reminds me a lot of my mom. they'd get along great!), stopped the car and we took some pictures by this cool colored kinda stained glass wall and some really awesome graffiti and then back into a beat up alley. it was so neat! i think me and chelsea are gonna try to get together again while i'm out here and do some more pictures. i'm so excited. she's such a good model. :) these were some of my favorites:

so...

i haven't been on here in over a month. so much has happened i dont even know where to begin. i think i'm going to start with the most recent stuff and work backwords because i have the pictures up already and its whats currently happening in my life right now. i'm staying with my aunt beth and her family for three weeks in virginia. i've already been here a week so i'll be here another two. so far i've taken like 1400 pix. mostly of the kids. she has five. they're so cute and fun to be around...mostly. haha. its been pretty cold or rainy since i've gotten here so i haven't done a ton of stuff outside yet. i went to the park one day but besides that, we've been going places inside. its supposed to warm up though and start being nice over the next few days i think. i'm going to the beach on saturday. i'm pretty excited about it.

(these are all of beth's kids' feet. i took it when they visited in december. i dont remember if i ever got around to that post before. i'm such a slacker. i have so much to catch up on. anyway. its super cute. i love all the toes!)

wayyyyyyyyyyy behind

on posts. will do a ton tonight. lots has been happening!
