HaPpY B DaY

Happy 1st Birthday Boston!!!! Wow I can't believe that our little baby is already 1. It was such a fun day. Not only did Boston turn 1 but he also took his first steps! Bossy is such a big boy now.
Here are some things that Boss is doing now:

1. says mama, dada, uh-oh and No
2. waves hello, gives Hi-5, claps his hands, raises arms when you say "arms up"
3. loves his little walker. he runs all around the house with his walker and now his favorite thing is to run you down with it.
4. obsessed with his binky. He has to have the ribbon from his binky clip in his mouth along side the binky or else he freaks out.
5. loves going up and down the stairs (scary)
6. likes you to chase him and say "I'm gonna get you". He especially likes to run away right after his bath when he is naked.
7. still doesn't have any teeth
8. loves his mommy and daddy but is a total daddy's boy

So dang cute!

Dang Boss, slow down!

Dave and Elle. We love Elley Belley so much and dave especially likes to hang out with her.

Bossy and his girlfriend Elle. Notice Elle eyeing his cupcake.

We missed our family who weren't able to make it because of the bad snow storm but it was still a great day. Happy B-day Boss!

Temple Square

Last night Dave and I thought it would be fun to take Boston to see the lights at Temple Square. The lights were beautiful but Boston did not enjoy being bundled up. Here is how the night started out....

Boston just looks sooo happy here, doesnt he? haha, Dave kept saying "What's up, state-puff?" He reminded me of the little kid on the Christmas Story movie with the huge coat.

Another pic of Boss just having the time of his life!

The lights were beautiful.

This was an attempt to take a picture of ourselves....didnt work out so great.




For all of you who haven't seen the lights at temple square yet, you really should go. Yes, it may be the same as last year and the year before, but after all, it's tradition!

HaPpY HaLLoWeEn!!!!!

Halloween is one of my very most favorite holidays. I love the spooky decorations, Costume parties, trick or treating, and fall colors. Boston and I went to Wheeler Farm today for a photo shoot. Here are some pictures.

Boston wanted to be a Lion for Halloween.

King of the Jungle

This photo shoot was especially hard because all that Boston wanted to the whole time was crawl away. It still was fun and we had a good time.

What's Up Schultz's???

You may find yourself asking, "man, What's up with those crazy Schultz's?" Well, check this out.........

This gives you a glimpse of what Boston looks like in the mornings. YIKES!

Me taking pictures of myself again.

Dave, Boston and I took a drive up Little Cottonwood canyon Last Sunday. This is Dave's normal face. Quite the Handsome guy, huh?

This is dave begging me to take his picture.

Fall is my very favorite season. I love the cool crisp air, the beautiful leaves, and all the festiv holidays.

Boston learned how to crawl up the stairs last Sunday. So exciting for you all, I know.

We went to a "Trunk or Treat" Halloween party for my mom's ward. Boston had fun watching all the kids go nuts. He also enjoyed poking my eye out with a glow stick he was waving around all night. Boston also learned how to wave hello for the very first time. I almost cried!

It's a Bird, It's a Plane, It's SUPER BOSS!!!

Last but not least, I never thought that my dog and my kid would fight over the same lame toys. Here is Boss and Maya fighting over a wrapping paper roll. It kept them entertained for hours....so I was pretty happy.

All in all it's been a great month full of good times and fun firsts!

Wedding Bliss

I was going through some drawers yesterday and found some random wedding pictures. These were 3 of my favorites. I can't believe it has been over 6 years since we were married. I have the best husband in the world and am so glad that I tricked him into marrying me!

All Blogged-Out

So lately I have felt Blogged-Out. I haven't blogged in a while so I thought I would do a quick update on our life. Here's some pics of the house. We are so close to being finished and I can't wait until this remodel is over. It is looking great though and I love our new floors.





Oh ya, Alana finally had Elle. She is the cutest baby girl in the whole world. Check out Alana's blog to see how incredibley gorgeous this baby is. Also, my brother Matt and his wife Jen had their baby Boy. They named him Sam and he is SOOO cute. He looks so much like my brother. He really looks like a little man. I just can't get enough of him!

UpDaTe oN tHe UpDOe

After 6 months of living in a construction zone it is finally coming to an end! Here is an update on the progression of our Kitchen......

This is our kitchen at the very beginning. It was definitely YELLOW!! The pantry is on the left where the wall is (behind that garbage sack).

This is in the middle of the kitchen where our Island now is. There was a wall behind it that made the kitchen feel very small and closed off.

Here is another picture of our sweet dark brown cabinets, yellow countertops, and the pantry.

We started tearing down the wall behind the island and building a wall behind the fridge (when I say "we" I actually mean "dave").

Here is the wall that dave built. We pushed the kitchen back about two feet to give us a bigger kitchen.

Here is the kitchen without any cupboards. Also dave had just installed Canned lighting all by himself. He did all the wiring and everything! I was seriously impressed.

Our kitchen in the "demolition phase"

After months of living in a construction and weeks without appliances and running water......Drumroll please.....................

TAH DAHHHHHH

I LOVE THIS KITCHEN. LOVE LOVE LOVE!! here is a picture right after the countertops were finished and we put the new fridge in. We dont have a stove or microwave installed yet.

Here is the Finished product. Pretty different, huh?!?! I can't believe the transformation. I seriously feel like I am on some Home Makeover show. It is AMAZING!!

BEAUTIFUL!! Thanks Dave for all of your hardwork. We only have about 1 week left before we get all of our hardwood floors installed. I can't wait to get rid of the orange and gold carpet! I will keep you guys updated.
