Been a few weeks...

A lot of things have happened, preventing me from updating our blog. I really don't like to write a whole lot; I am more of a visual person. I prefer photos over reading- so here is a quick recap of what we have been doing: I took Thanksgiving week off. Yeah for me! At the same time, we found out Zac had to go in AGAIN to have tubes put in his ears. At the same time as that, the doctor took out his adenoids. That was on Tuesday. We were blessed to have a quick recovery, and by Wednesday he was running and playing like nothing ever happened. Thursday was Thanksgiving, and my brined Turkey turned out great. Thursday night, Traci's grandpa passed, and we are preparing for the funeral. Amongst all of this, we managed to go to American Fork Canyon for an hour or so and test out our camera. So here are a few photos or so of our week... give or take a few days...

Year Book Yourself

My friend Nathalie did this and I thought it was totally funny. So I had to try it out for myself. I am a bit embarrased to say that I graduated in 1992, because it really isn't a great look! Then again, what year is??? So I had to try out a few different decades.. Have a good laugh on me!

Blue Eyes

We bought our camera today! A DSLR Sony A200. We love it- it is so nice! Now we just need to learn how to use it with all its features! Anyway, we were testing it out, and taking pictures of everything we could see...the floor, our feet, the couch, each other... The boys ended up being the focus since they kept saying "pick me! pick me! I want to be in the photo!". But anyways, it looks like this camera does a better representation of color(and I think the 10 megapixels help!). So here are a few pictures of our boys eyes. We love how blue they all are. We feel very blessed to have healthy children. The photos turned out great, but you really need to click on them to enlarge them. Then you can really see their beautiful eyes in action.

Goodby leaves

Its a sad day when the leaves fall. I guess its just that time!

Like Father Like Son

Jake is only 18 months- but every chance he gets, he comes over to the computer and bangs on the keys, obviously copying me. Am I creating little computer monsters? Basically. Basically.

Halloween Costumes 2008

Here are our Halloween costumes that we chose for 2008- I think they turned out really great! Cameron was Ob1-Kanobi, Jake was a Dragon, Zac was Alvin, and I was a Skeleton. Of course, I had to starve myself for a few weeks to get the desired effect for my skeleton costume- Man- was I hungry!
