My latest mixture of Pumpkin Roll + Cinnamon Bear = me feeling like fall is actually around the corner! Come on Tuesday night and have some fun! Smell new testers, check out new product, eat some treats and of course enter in for prizes and giveaways!!

**I also have a friend joining me for the evening with skirts $32 (1 skirt can be worn 6 different ways!), baby shoes $12 (like Robeez, but 1/2 the price!) and Hair Tinsel $10 for 6 strands (put in right then and there!). Sounds like fun!

Funny Kid

We are home from New York and Boston. We had a wonderful time. Pictures and a run down of events are in the works. The above picture was taken by Kapri when she had the boys over while we were away. So funny. I keep laughing. We are happy to be home. I definitely missed my boys!

Dear Carson: Plymouth, MA

Hi Carson! Here are some pictures from our trip.

Plimoth Plantation in Plymouth, MA.

Mom, Dad & a pirate! :)

Mom & Dad on a pirate ship!

We love you Carson & Blake!

More Photo Shoot!

I apologize for uploading so many pictures! I just can't decide which darling one to leave out. I'm sure this won't be the last post either. Kapri keeps sending me more that I love!

Kapri {photographer} is running a special! $65 for the rights to 20 edited photos booked before October 1st. This is one of those run, don't walk moments. Email her today! kaprirose@gmail.com

Photo Shoot

I've said it before and I'll say it again....I love having boys. These two just make me happy!

Carson Jack

This handsome and funny boy will be four next month! Seriously? He amazes us everyday with his wit, smarts and humor.

Best Buddies

Please tell me you agree that this is the cutest brother picture you've ever seen!

P.S. These photos were all taken by my cute, amazing and super talented friend, Kapri! Thank you a million times over for taking them!! I L.O.V.E. every one!

Baby Model Material

Yes, I'm his mother and totally biased, but this kid is baby model material! I seriously cannot get enough of him. He is still the sweetest and happiest baby. Little Bean, I love you. Happy 10 months next week!

Funny Carson

I have the funniest converstations/exchanges with Carson on a daily basis. Here are two of the latest.

First...
Carson: "Mama, why do we keep taking naps?"
Me: "Naps make us happy."
{Carson pauses for a moment to think about my answer}
Carson: "Well, naps don't make me happy....they just make me all sweaty."

True, true! Carson is a sweaty sleeper. I feel like I have to wash his sheets every day because he wakes up looking like he got out of the tub.

Second...
{Carson playing with his StarScream Transformer next to me}
Carson: "Mama, StarScream wants to say hi to you."
Me: "Hi StarScream."
{Carson looks at me like I belong in the looney bin}
Carson: "Mom! Toys don't talk."

Oh, well, you shouldn't tell me he wants to say hi then!

Fishing the San Juan

Last week Matt headed out with my dad to fly fish in Farmington, New Mexico. The San Juan River in New Mexico is world famous for fly fishing. Matt had a great time with my dad and they actually caught lots of fish! That always makes for a good fishing trip, right? It was all catch and release, so no, we won't be eating any of those bad boys. Whew!

We were happy to have Matt home on Sunday!

We've got a swimmer!

Carson is quite the little swimmer. Matt just sent me this video and I had to laugh. His dive is hilarious. Where does he get this stuff? Watch out Michael Phelps! This little guy will give you a run for your money in 15-20 years. Carson will keep going to swim lessons year round. He just loves it and I'm happy he is more safe around water!

Happy Anniversary to Us!

Today marks six years of wedded bliss for us! I couldn't have asked for a better husband. Neither of us are perfect, but I'd say we are pretty darn perfect for each other. Matt got an electric guitar and amp for our anniversary. How romantic, I know. I did some redecorating in the family room and dining room and Matt surprised me and got me a NutriMill to make my own flours. I guess that's kind of a big deal for us celiac people. No more $28.00 bags of flour for me or $9.00 loaves of bread. So, happy anniversary to us!

Free snowcone! GRAPE is my favorite.

On Saturday we headed over to Hunter's 5th birthday party. Carson was having such a good time I didn't even get a picture of him. I was sure the red stain on his face and belly from the snowcones wouldn't come off for Sunday. He loves playing with his cousins. I did catch a few shots of Blake. Check out that serious face!

This is why dad is his favorite! He shares his snowcone. Blake loved it.


I have a very similar picture of Matt with Carson.

Papa Dave

Our boys sure do have grandparents that love them! Papa and Grandma stopped by this evening to bring Carson some "papa-corn". Dave always makes popcorn and Carson lives for it! We jokingly started calling it "papa-corn" and Carson thinks that's pretty funny. Today he tried to tell me it was Carson-corn. Nice try. The boys were sitting with Dave and I had to run get my camera. So sweet.

Carson & Blake

If you come to our house you'll know this is Carson's typical daily attire. He loves to sport his whatever day of the week undies. I dress him everyday and he always ends up looking like this. He's only three - it's cute for the time being.

Our happy Bean. We sure love this kid. He is now eight months, crawling everywhere, teething like a maniac and sporting his hood thanks to big brother Carson.

Our Family

We got home early from our family outing last Friday and had a fun time playing around and taking pictures. It has been so fun to watch Carson and Blake interact more.

The Boys

We are working on getting Carson to not say "cheese" everytime we get the camera out. His face always ends up looking like this. What cute brothers!

Blake showing Carson who's boss! Carson thought it was so funny and keeps asking Blake to climb on him.

Blake trying to escape. Carson was pretty quick with the diaper grab.

Baby in the Mirror

Blake keeps himself entertained with this mirror while Carson has swim lessons. He was mesmerized by himself. He kept looking himself, looking at me, looking back at himself, trying to give himself kisses and just talking. Everyone thought it was the cutest. Blake turned 8 months yesterday! Where does the time go?

Happy 4th and Happy Birthday!

On Saturday we celebrated the 4th of July holiday as well as Dave's birthday! The 4th is always packed full of fun at the Evans household. We enjoyed a BBQ, swimming, naps or shopping, more food, more swimming, delicious Angel Pie and topped it all off with a fireworks show!

Carson, Gail & Dave

A quick picture durning the fireworks!

Hope everyone had a wonderful holiday!

Grandma Gail & Grandsons

Gail and I headed out for a little home decor shopping the other day. I found some really cute stuff for my dining room table. I got an email last week from a friend in Utah full of ideas, links, explanations, etc on how to give my dining room area a lift! I'm so excited about the possibilities. Thanks again Jamie for all your input! The makeover is still in the works and I'll post before and after pictures soon! While we were shopping Carson said he wanted to hold Blake. Like I've said before - this is definitely a rare occasion! I ended up getting this darling photo of Gail and the boys. So cute. I seriously have the best in-laws.

Not tired?

Carson didn't want to take a nap the other day. He kept telling me he wasn't tired. I told him he could play quietly in his room or out by the couch. I went to find him a few minutes later and saw that he had carefully slipped his little body under our sheets and between our pillows without disturbing anything. I found him because he was snoring.

I unwraped his head so he wouldn't sweat to death. I have very warm sleepers at my house. Half the time when Carson gets up you'd think he just jumped out of the shower.
