Hello Everyone!

Yep, it's official, I'm the worst blogger ever! Life is great for Conrad and I, we're just trying to keep up with life! Conrad and I keep busy with our church callings, him in 11 year old scouts and me in primary as the "singing lady". I must admit, I've grown to love my calling! It was so scary at first, well......for a long time.....after all, I'm not a good singer! But anyway, I finally feel like I fit into the mold as the "singing lady" and I have so much fun with it! I just love those kids! Work for both of us is going good, we both have good, steady jobs and are so grateful for them. Let's see, what else is new?? Conrad surprised me with a trip to Flagstaff for V-Day weekend, it was tons of fun! We got to try new places to eat, play in the snow, go to the movies and just relax. Talk about a much needed get away, work has been SUPER busy lately at my job so I finally felt like I could breathe for a little while. I love Conrad so much, he is always so thoughtful and doing things for me :) Other than that there is nothing new in life, just have our two dogs and no kiddos yet! Someday hopefully, I'm having a hard time with this whole patience thing but I know it will happen. I just want it to happen NOW! So Heavenly Father is definitely helping me with that :) Hope life is good for everyone, sorry I have been a bad blog friend! Love you all!

Glad I'm still loved!

Well thanks for all your sweet comments! I must have been having a lame'o day! I am pretty lame at posting consistently, I need to get better because it can be so fun! Thanks for all your good luck wishes for my new calling, I'll need it! :) I'm loving my calling, it's lots of fun and work too, but mostly fun :) Conrad and I are doing great, we are both enrolled in school, Conrad's first semester and hopefully my last! I'm just getting my associate in arts and trying to work more on building my photography portfolio. I really enjoy what I do! Hope all is well with everyone, Adios!

Guess I'm Pretty Boring!

2010-09-25T09:40:00.000-07:00

Okay I'm very sad, nobody ever comments on my blog. Am I just not that cool anymore or is my life boring? I was told by one of my primary kids that my life sounds boring so maybe it is hahaha. Oh, about a month ago I got put in as the new Primary Chorister. SCARY. We have the primary program coming up on Halloween day. Wish me luck! :)

Busy Doing What I Love! My latest work....

Well to say the least, life is great but it's been busy! Here are a few pictures that i've been working on lately. My great friend, Stacie, got married last week to Dan! I was so excited to have the opportunity to take her wedding pictures so here are just a few!

I also got to take pictures for my other awesome friend, Sonya! She is leaving on her mission very soon now and is going to do an amazing job. This shoot was definitely tons of fun and WAY HOT outside! Enjoy a few of my favorites!

PS. I posted all of the pictures of Sonya on Facebook so check them out!

4th of July Weekend

2010-07-09T11:03:00.000-07:00

For the 4th of July weekend we have a tradition of going up to Taylor (Where my mom is from) for the Anvil Parade and Rodeo. It's a tradition that I want to keep going in mine and Conrad's family. This was Conrad's first year coming and it was so much fun to finally have him there with me!

4th of July weekend always starts out with sleeping on grandma's lawn that Friday night to wake up to the anvil parade. My sister, her friend, Conrad and I all slept on grandma's lawn and woke up at 4AM to the loud BOOM created by the anvil going off, the sign that the parade is starting! We called my parents to come pick us up (lucky them) and drive us through the parade. In Taylor, EVERYONE get's to be in the parade! The parade ended at 6:30 and we went back to grandma's to eat breakfast in our pj's. Breakfast consisted of homemade pancakes, eggs, and applesauce, yummmmmm. Made by my Uncle Brad :)

After a long morning we went back to the apartment to get dressed to go to the swap meet and do some antique shopping, YAY! In Taylor you can find some good antiques for cheap! After shopping we were exhausted so we took a nap and later had lunch and my grandma's, made again by my Uncle Brad. We had BBQ Beef sandwiches and the BEST grilled corn I've ever had!

By this time it was time to get ready for the Rodeo so we could save our seat because it sure fills up fast! After getting ready we headed down there and got our seat while also eating the famous NAVAJO TACOS. Every year we go to the rodeo you have to have the Navajo Tacos, their Yummy-Licous! Once your filled with plain goodness and the stands are filled with rodeo craving fans, the rodeo begins with the Pledge of Alegience, a Prayer and a YEE-HAW! The rodeo is such a blast and at the end we get fireworks! I must say, Taylor does a good job! But personally, I would rather the fireworks not be not so long. After sitting in our seats for 4 hours we were ready to go to sleep and I had a full bladder!!

After having a fun filled weekend it sure is nice to get back to real life and be home again with our Ruger! We just love him and miss him when we're away! Here's some pictures of our weekend. And I'm going to get back to painting our room, i'll post pics when it's done!

The Adair Family Pictures

Here's a few pictures of my latest shoot! I have known Amy since I was little because we grew up in the same ward. This is her beautiful family! Her baby girl is SO adorable and they were so much fun to work with!! Enjoy a few of my favorites!

Our Weekend!

2010-06-20T15:18:00.000-07:00

Well life is busy! But who's isn't right? Well I just thought I would post some more updated pictures of our house, to me it seems like a lot has changed since I last posted pictures of our house but maybe it's just me! Our room and the other rooms upstairs are the only one's not painted, but someday they will be haha.

This week was good, I didn't have work on Thursday or Friday so I was able to work on my friend, Kelsey's, wedding pictures and I finished YAHOO! So I will post some pictures of that. I got to visit my best friend Nikki and her handsome baby boy Linken. We decided to take a few pictures considering i've never taken baby pictures before and we only took a few. Saturday I took some family and baby pictures for my friend Amy, who I grew up with, and I think they are going to turn out so cute! So I can't wait to post them for all to see :) And Conrad came with me, he is my handy dandy helper. I love it when he comes he is so supportive and helpful! So the photography is coming along good, I hope it keeps coming along! Oh and we FINALLY got our tax return, YAY!!!!!!! So we were finally able to buy our iMAC so now my photo editing will be 4x's faster and more enjoyable, YES! I'm so excited! And now Conrad can finally get his grass he has been wanting for months now, I can' wait to have grass! :) Oh the little things in life. Hope everyone is doing well, Ta Ta for now!

Oh man it's been a long time!

2010-06-11T15:15:00.000-07:00

Ok so it's been about 5 months since i've blogged, that's pretty bad. I'm only doing it because my best friend told me I needed to get back to it so here I am! However, it's not totally fun to blog when no one ever makes comments so people please comment occasionally and I promise to comment back on your blogs too :)

Here are a few pictures of what's been going on lately! Conrad and I both had our birthdays, we are 22! We went to a Sun's game (Conrad's first, My second), now that was a BLAST! Conrad and I took a staycation to Scottsdale and visited a few of it's attractions, we love to eat so we sure ate a lot on that trip! Our house has had a lot of changes, still needs grass but Conrad has put in the sprinklers so it's almost time for grass! Conrad, Nathan and I went shooting clay pigeons, that was fun :) My brother, Nathan, left on his mission and is in the MTC right now, he reports to Honolulu, Hawaii this upcoming Tuesday and we are super excited for him!

As far as how we're doing, it's pretty much the same old same old! Conrad has been enjoying his new job of 2 months really well! He works for American Family insurance and is even a licensed insurance agent, I'm SO proud of him. We have been so blessed for Conrad to get this job, we are truly grateful. As for me, i'm just working at the same place! I love my job as a pediatric dental assistant, but I can't lie when I say I can't wait for the day I have kids so I can stay home with them instead!

Lately I've been trying to get into my photography again and that has been so much fun! I've taken pictures for my family, my brother and his Prom date, and my sister with her friends so far. This Saturday i'm actually taking some wedding pictures for a friend of mine and I have some baby/family pictures coming up in the next week as well! So busy, but man am I excited! I hope that my photography continues to take off so that I can do it when I become a stay at home Mom, that would be just perfect! Just so you all know, right now i'm charging only $50 to build up my portfolio in case you or someone else is interested. It would be much appreciated!

Don't give up on me!!

2010-02-15T08:49:00.000-08:00

I'm so sorry my little blog I have not posted in so long! I promise that I will post on you soon, life is just so busy! I ask this little favor of you though, please don't give up on me!

Christmas eve

Christmas morning!

This Christmas was the best by far! Being able to spend with with Conrad as my husband for the first time was so much fun and a dream come true. We went to my parents house for Christmas eve and spent time with all of the Solomon's. And on Christmas day we went over to my parents house again to have breakfast and play the new Wii games :) That afternoon we went with Conrad's family to his grandparents house where we had Christmas dinner and did an elephant exchange. Nothing funnier than an elephant exchange at their house! They are some funny people! Here's a few pictures of our Christmas season :)
