Tribute: My Dad


Meet my Dad, Clint. Isn't he so CUTE?

And this is the famous hand upon hand move..

He always has a smile on his face. I love it. He is the most easy going guy you'll ever meet.

Not embarrassed to put a little baby girl's hat on his head, and keep it there- even when a stranger kindly tells him that it doesn't fit ;) (Btw thanks Stranger, what an epiphany).

We strolled around temple square while he was here. And it was amazing. My bro and my Dad were captivated by the statues and locked into discussion about history and philosophy of their beliefs..

He teases my kids, just like me and I smile. How do you not smile when you realize that the crazy quirky things you do have an origin?

..My Dad.
I think we are all parts of our Fathers and they are pieces of us.
I love you Dad!

Candi and Eden visiting at last

My big sis and her baby girl, Eden. Such cuteness.
Eden: "Very curious.."

There Candi and I are. I think we both look alittle reddish. No worries though, I'm sure its the camera. Man, I hate photos of myself!

Hogle Zoo

This is at one of the exhibits! They were soo enthralled! I think Candi (the far one in the white shirt) thought there was a good resemblance to herself in the monkey cage). Just kidding- You're beautiful Candi!
There is Ben and my Dad holding down the fort with the kids and supervising strollers.
Dad, Candi, Ben..and kids.
We were amazed at how much those baby alligators had grown.. Their parents must be proud!

Millions of peaches.. Peaches for me..

Four buckets and a tupperware full. Yummy.
And this is the circus version of our peaches (my color is alittle off- obviously). And the next shot is the clown..

"I didn't do it"
"I wasn't gonna eat it Mommy, promise. I was just borrowing it."
This is is not even 2/3 of the peaches from our AMAZING tree. Its true. :) And btw- I know what everyone is getting for Christmas this year. Bwaa ha ha

The APPLe of my eyes

Syd got ahold of an apple that I had picked from one of our trees. She is adorable.

Look at that concentration. Man! What form.

Little teethies and pudgy fingers. To die for!

This is my favorite1. The rolls, the lips.. Heaven in a toddler...apple Alone. . . Sigh.
