My ladies story...


I had such a fun day with sister and the girls today. I have been working my @!#$'s off and we took a day to go shopping, to fine dine and let Estee ride the ponies at Gardeners Village.





Look at the Monie, so cute...and those legs...



How cute is my Estee? Tearing up the house on her Dora bike. Don't mess with this girl or you will have Auntie to answer to...seriously.



This girl is getting so big. Love how proud she is in this photo...even though there might be some inappropriateness in the background.

Whatnots...


How cute is my Monie? Such a sweet little personality and so cute. Love those little girls...Did you see Estee on sisters blog? That just about had me in tears.

Adam and I drove up to Park City on Saturday, let me tell you...it was BEAUTIFUL! I only had the camera on my phone so I thought I would snap a few photos. (don't ask me what kind of sexy Elvis face Im trying to pull in that photo...I can only promise that I wasn't doing it on purpose and it was the only photo I took of us)
And I had to take this one because this is what I have to dig through to get to my phone every time it rings and my wallet. Perfect.

How wruuude (to be read like Stephanie Tanner)...


The title of this post is for the bottom portion...





                        Look how cute Unkie is!!! They love him...and the bath.



Adam and I babysat the girls tonight and we had so much fun. Estee helped me with some of my decorations, we had to give them a bath because they were coated with delicious goodies and things.






Every time I look at these I roll!




on another note...
My car broke down...Im not even kidding. I don't know what happened but my clutch went out or something, I thought that only happened in the 80's. Anyway, There I was stuck in the middle of the lane with my hazards on and I got the bird 3 times and more dirty looks than you can shake a stick at. Like I was having fun being humiliated in the middle of the road. Not one person asked if I needed help. Now Im driving Adam's car until mine is fixed...and thats alot of fun (not really)

Delight...

I think my man had a great birthday...we went to Sundance with his parents and had dinner and...


they got us this for our birthdays (they are only 10 days apart). Im so excited to have a new camera (thank you).



And...tonight when I got home I put up my halloween village and started to get out my decorations. Turns out, I don't have as much as I thought. I hate that. I thought I was going to open up my big bin and find all kinds of treasures that I had bought on sale last year after halloween. I didn't. Just a bin full of dippy shiz. Thats o.k. Ill make do...(that and Amy and I put in an order with Bethany Lowe) Cant wait for that to show up. We are thinking of placing a big christmas order and having another party to sell the stuff...would anyone be interested? Maybe its just sister and I who are obsessed with that stuff!?

Happy 32nd birthday boyfriend...





I guess now that he's 32 I should stop calling him boyfriend and start calling him manfriend. I had a party for him on Saturday night, thank you everyone who came...it meant a lot to Adam.

And to you my love, Happy birthday. You mean the world to me. What a blessing today is...you came into the world and I was lucky enough to meet you, let alone be with you FOREVER. You will never know how much I love you and how perfect you are in my eyes.

Whoody whooo.

The Zoo...




Sister and I took the girls to the Zoo today...we had so much fun. Estee loved all 3 of the animals that were there. The Hogle zoo might need a little help (not quite the San Diego zoo), but we loved it anyway. Estee had her first day of dance and she has the bun to prove it.







We went and watched a little thing where the trainer was feeding the elephant right in front of Estee and I, and when the elephant opened its mouth for the first time Estee FREAKED (I must admit the the inside of its mouth was surprisingly freakish) and ran off. Anyway, Its all she wanted to talk about all day and apparently she thought I resemble the elephant because she was pretending to be the trainer and feeding me cotton candy and other delicious treats.
How cute are these 2...loving on each other. 



All in all it was a very fun day with only 2 problems. 1. Amy ruined the day a bit about telling me about a very disturbing Oprah (I don't have cable, so she fills me in) All, I can say is that there are somethings I just can't hear about and this was one of them. thanks a lot sister.

and 2. there was this orangoutang laying on its back in this little room and I thought he was asleep because he was just laying there so still...but when we got closer he had his eyes open. I don't know what was going on but if he was dead...sad, if he was alive...sad. I cant stand seeing that kind off stuff, I love animals so I want to go to the zoo to see them but I hate stuff like that...it's why I wont go to the circus.

Sunday...






So, Sunday boyfriend and I went for a drive up the canyon by our house...And it was beautiful. The colors are just starting to change a bit. I do not want fall to come because that means that summer is over and its pretty much winter time around these parts, but I do love the 3 days of fall that Utah has. I think in about a week or two Adam and I will go ride the ski lift up at Sundance. 

On to another subject, Adam and I have to do a little booth at our church's Provident living fair. Im not even sure what the whole thing is really about, but this I do know... We have to do a display type thing on "trash into treasure". Please anyone and everyone reading this, if you have any ideas on something we can do I would love suggestions. You can leave it in the comments or e-mail me at louandlee{at}gmail.com. ANYTHING. We are pretty stumped. I have been on peoples blogs and seen the creativity, please share the wealth.  Thank you in advance. 

(by the way, if this seems vague, that is because this was all the direction that we were given.)

Beautiful flash photography...


As you will see in the following photos:

1. I dont have anything to blog about (as usual)

2. My camera is dippy and I think having sister as my sister has made me a flash photography snob.

3. I only took photos around the house tonight of absolutely nothing so that I would have something to blog.











I like him so much, the handsome devil. Here is something you haven't seen before...Adam and I taking photos of ourselves.
Seriously, my house is out of control...does anyone have any organizing suggestions or any options. This is what my upstairs looks like all the time now.
How cute are my new Moschino pumps? 80% off baybee...
These are a few new onesies/gown I made for the Etsy shop, I switched it up and wrote dad on the banner. 
Manfriend looking at sisters blog, look at his cute Yuba City Harley t-shirt.
How cute is boyfriend, look at those baby blues, and his little fangs...like Edward but even more of a honey!

Embarrassing...

This photo is from the night of Julia's birthday party! ( and its not the embarrassing one)






What is so embarrassing is that Jen had an extravaganza for Dave's 30th birthday...a luau of sorts and she told us that we HAD to get dressed up. So, Amy went to DI and got her fanciful shirt, my man even went to his dads to barrow some sort of Hawaiian top and I wore a floor length muumuu...needless to say there were not many dressed the part. I get embarrassed doing things like that to begin with (not because Im a party pooper but because Im lame), and this is the reason why.

Could this be my last post ever???

What do you think of all this? As highly anxious person this makes me a little nervie, but as faithful person, I know this isn't how its all going to go down...still, I don't like it one bit. Lets not do things that even have the slightest inkling that they might create a black hole for us to get sucked up in.




I right clicked all the shiz below off cnn.com











CERN, Switzerland (CNN) -- Scientists Wednesday applauded as one of the most ambitious experiments ever conceived got successfully underway, with protons being fired around a 27-kilometer (17-mile) tunnel deep beneath the border of France and Switzerland in an attempt to unlock the secrets of the universe.


The experiment will look at how the universe formed by analyzing particle collisions.


The Large Hadron Collider -- a $9 billion particle accelerator designed to simulate conditions of the Big Bang that created the physical Universe -- was switched on at 0732 GMT to cheers and applause from experts gathered to witness the event.

While observers were left nonplussed by the anticlimactic flashing dots on a TV screen that signalled the machine's successful test run, among teams of scientists involved around the world there were jubilant celebrations and popping champagne corks.

In the coming months, the collider is expected to begin smashing particles into each other by sending two beams of protons around the tunnel in opposite directions.

Skeptics, who claim that the experiment could lead to the creation of a black hole capable of swallowing the planet, failed in a legal bid to halt the project at CERN, the European Organization for Nuclear Research.

Others have branded it a colossal waste of cash, draining resources from its multinational collaborators that could have been spent on scientific research with more tangible benefits to mankind.


French President Nicolas Sarkozy hailed the project as a major achievement for Europe.

"The repercussions of this scientific investment without precedent in the history of humanity will be essential not only for the intimate knowledge of our universe, but also for the direct applications in fields as varied as intensive calculation or even medicine," he said. Watch as Big Bang experiment gets underway »

The collider will operate at higher energies and intensities in the next year, potentially generating enough data to make a discovery by 2009, experts say.
