My Family

more pictures!

Amber was my best friend in high school. Even though we drifted apart towards graduation, we always found our way back to each other. This weekend I had the pleasure of taking their family pictures at Snowbird. Luckily they had snow and it made for some fantastic shots! Here are a few of my favorites.

Dylan's Senior Pictures

I took Dylan to do some senior pictures. I think they turned out awesome, with one exception. Unfortunately the only time we had to do these was at like 11 am. Which meant the sun was high and bright. And although we did our best to make sure he never faced the sun, it was such a bright day that we still had squinting :( Oh well, they're still pretty awesome.

I like pictures.

I like pictures. I like getting our pictures taken and I like taking pictures. I love that it captures moments and memories. Even if in 10 years I look at it and say, "wow, what is with that hair?" Sometimes I feel like pictures see more than I know in that moment. Anyhow, I've been taking pictures more and learning more about how to use my camera. I've already posted some wedding photos and here are a few I've done since then.

Looking good, feeling great!

Alright, a few weeks have gone by since setting goals. We haven't been perfect, but we're making it work as much as we can. We've fallen off the wagon as far as eating out, it's so hard when life gets so busy! It's just so much easier to go out and have someone else do the work. Plus, I get these ridiculous cravings for the foods that are bad for me. Ah, well it's been getting better again and we're starting to behave some more. 

The real progress is me! I've been back on Herbalife and the inches are just melting away! I lost about 6 inches by only changing one meal a day (breakfast) to a shake. That's it. So I kicked myself into gear and thought, if I can lose 6 inches by still being lazy, lets fix up the meals side of it better. I noticed that I wasn't craving the bad food nearly as much and I stopped over eating! I am so bad when it comes to overeating, if I bought it, I will eat it! I don't like to see wasted food. NO MORE!!! Then I started thinking that I'd really like to be more physically fit, rather than just skin and bones. I've decided that I'm a "skinny fat". Basically it means that I'm not considered fat and I don't look fat, but I don't feel skinny and all of me is pretty squishy. Ha. That sounds funny. In any case, I was sick of being out of shape and starting to realize that Sawyer is getting bigger and faster everyday! I need to be able to keep up with him! So... I started P90X. It's only been a week but I can already SEE the difference in my legs and arms. And soon it'll be noticeable all over! Woo Hoo! See how great Herbalife is? It's been the push I needed!
