Pioneer Day

Happy Pioneer Day! (Yes, it's a real holiday--God bless Utah)

So, we packed up our things and headed up to Tibble Fork Reservoir to do some campin' & swimmin' with our friends.

Slacklining. Some of us were better than others ;)

Nick & Zach were really good but Rue was definitely the master slack-liner ;)

 This cracks me up so much! We got them lifejackets and you can carry them around!!

Rue hates swimming so we pulled her on the raft instead

Harper liked to sit on my lap as we floated around. Awww.

Thanks, Nick & Jenny! We had so much fun!

Rachel Mariesa Photography

A few weeks ago, my friend Rachel asked if she could take some pictures of us. She was one of the photographers for our wedding and is so talented, so we were honored.

 I love our little family. Every day I think to myself that I'm the luckiest person in the world.

Check out Rachel's work here, and here. She is also a very talented graphic designer and has done a lot of work for me and my Etsy shop business.

Thanks, Rachel!

Rue & Harper Turn One

Yes, we had a birthday party for our dogs. Are you really surprised? As if having their own Instagram & Etsy shop wasn't enough... we threw them a birthday party. Yes, we are obsessed with our dogs.

Now that that's out of the way, let's move on:

Rue & Harper had the best doggy birthday party ever.

Rue's face kills me.

     And our dear beagle-friend Molly came.

I say "dear", but it turns out Molly doesn't feel the same about Rue

But she sure looks good in a party hat ;)

What's a party without peanut-butter-apple-yam-carrot cake?

And pinatas, of course. 

world's biggest bone.

I also made sweek pork tacos (which were sooooo good), and carrot cake. We had a lot of fun laughing at the dogs.

Thanks to everyone who came!

Until next year ;)
