Help! I'm Drowning in Wedding Pictures!

So, we are having a little dilemma. We were supposed to have picked out a picture from our wedding to be framed about 2 weeks ago. Is it done? Well, i suppose i wouldn't be posting this if we had.. so a few of the reasons why we suck and are in this pickle are as follows;

1. we have about a BAJILLION pictures
2. although many are good.. most of the good ones are candid (not much for portraits)
3. me and Dallin are the most indecisive couple you will ever meet
4. we procrastinate because we are lazy.

Hence, we need help. I have at least narrowed them down to a few i would be willing to frame. keep in mind this frame is much bigger than i believe i would ever frame anything but because it has been offered to us as a gift i think i will accept. After all, our house wouldn't be complete without one right? So, without further ado, some of the candidates. I apologize in advance that there are so freaking many... Sorry!!!!
k my beef with this one is that it's in front of scott's instead of the temple...


k i just think this one is cool and wanted to share


i feel like we're making weird faces in all of them...


I'm not sure if it's okay if we aren't looking at the camera. does that make it non-portraity?



not really a portrait.. but not many of these are...


okay i know i look kinda like a pirate hooker w/ the cleavage but i promise it'd be photoshopped out. :/


k i know that this cant really be a candidate but it was my favorite picture taken all day and i deemed it prudent to share and to be completely honest i think it would be the only one i'd really truly want to frame... Dallin won't agree...

Oh! also there is the option of the one that i used as our big photo for the blog. dallin says it isn't his favorite because you cant really see my dress but i like that you can see my shoes...

Also, let me know if you think it's acceptable to frame one of friends.. or if you think Dallin's man-calf is too nasty. ;)

Again i am so sorry that there were so freaking many. Please comment your opinions though. seriously... i can't do it. :) Thanks!!!!!! You guys Rock!

Oh! and ps. i had a client today that was wearing a Halloween shirt and Christmas socks! It totally enhanced my belief that the code of decor etiquette is seriously flawed. it did make me giggle though. :)

PPS. can i just note how hot my husband is?

Holiday Decor Etiquette

So i couldn't resist. i decorated the apartment for Halloween. i know you're supposed to wait until the 1st of October... yadda yadda.. but i just couldn't stop myself! and i didn't even just barely do it either.. i did it like 2 weeks ago and Dallin has been making fun of me ever since. but honestly, who made the rules for decorating etiquette anyway? i say that from now on we should decorate for whatever holiday we want whenever we want. i mean why do you think Nightmare Before Christmas was created in the first place? was it for pure entertainments sake? was it just to create another holiday icon? to inspire the awesomeness of a jack or sally costume? NO. it was to inspire the little people like me to decorate for Halloween even during Christmas. i say no more to the standard holiday etiquette. conformity sucks... but lets not leave our christmas lights up after new years.. that's tacky.. ;)

Labor Day Weekend



So for labor day we hiked up to the timpinogos caves. Let me just tell you it's a lot harder than we thought it would be. It's about a mile and a quarter completely uphill. It felt good though and we were super proud of ourselves. We only had to take one break and Dallin didn't have an asthma attack. :) It was alot of fun to spend the time with family and the caves are awesome. I highly recommend doing it at least once while living in utah valley. We should have the other pics soon. The computer is just being super slow..
