Lots and lots of Wedding Pics!

Last week Ron's brother Matt and his bride to be Holly were married on August 22, 2009. It was a beautiful ceremony and we all had a great time. It took me way back to my wedding day exactly 12 years earlier. Here are some of the pictures I captured of that day. Congrats Matt and Holly!
Here are some of the Knutson/Jones grand kids waiting for the wedding to start.
If I remember right this is Holly's Grandma's broach she wore for her something old. It was a beautiful addition to the back of her dress.
The blushing bride.

You may now kiss the bride....
Matt and Holly and their little girl Reese.

Happy Anniversary to us!!!

Boys!

This is a shout out to my boys. I want to let them both know how much I love them. And how today when I looked out the window it warmed my heart to look out the window and see the below images. Yes Aidan is in a diaper and barefoot probably not the safest lawn mowing apparel but still darn cute. This little guy loves anything that goes Brrrmmm! It probably took Ron an extra 45 minutes to mow the lawn but I think they had lots of fun.


This is Ron's stunning birthday cake made by me "baker extraordinaire"
this was one YUMMY cake if I do say so myself. I hope he had a great birthday.

Camping

I finally had time tonight to down load my camera from our annual Wayman Family camping trip. This year we headed up to the Uintas to a spot my family has camped in since I was a little girl. I have a lot of fond memories camping in the Uintas it is so beautiful and there are so many things to see. I posted a ton of pictures of our adventures. ENJOY!
This is the site we camped in.
My darling Alyssa fishing....a girl after my own heart....I think she is almost old enough to start teaching her how to fly fish.

Ron giving Avery some pointers on fishing.

Heather and Jenna chilling by the campfire.

This bike was a hit with the boys. They all took turns fighting over it and riding it.

This is so totally Avery my wanna be Rock Star singing herself a song while we packed up camp.
Lynne and I took our kids down to the stream to look for a beaver damn that was there when I was younger. The beaver damn was gone but the kids had a great time playing in the water.

This is typically how I find Aidan if we are ever out in the garage. He LOVES cars.


Avery again in Avery land having a great time.

I took this pic with my new lens....love it!

Alyssa took this while they were watching the awesome horse shoe tournament. He is so cute even dirty!

My cute brother Josh hanging out at camp. I think this was also during the horseshoe tournament.

The before mentioned tournament. I don't remember who won I just know it wasn't me. I am horrible. I think I almost hit Jenna a couple of times. EKK!

See how stinking pretty it is up there? seriously if you have never been you should totally go...take a jacket though because it can get chilly at times.

Drew preparing to get ready to go fishing. Lucky!!!

I took this while we were down letting the kids play in the river. See I told you it was beautiful.

Carter!

My friend Janet asked me to take pictures of her cute little baby Carter for her the other day. We did a quick impromptu session in the rain might I add. And I think they turned out great. ENJOY!!

Me messing around

So lately I have been messing around in photoshop trying to figure it all out. There is TONS to learn. So here are few samples of me messing around in photoshop with some pictures I have taken awhile ago.

Before

one of the things I have been experimenting with is textures. Here is what I came up with on this picture.

Before
After I did some tweaking.

With added texture. I am having a good time messing around and see what different things you can create. And just a side note isn't that the cutest baby you have EVER SEEN!!!

Mac & Cheese Please!

I know that this post is probably going to make most of you giggle but I am dang excited about the deal I just got and wanted to share.

OK at Albertsons they have a deal right now that if you buy select Kraft Food items and spend $25.00 they will give you a $5.00 coupon that you can use on your next visit AND if you mail in your receipt Kraft will send you a check for $20.00 so you basically get $25.00 of FREE food.

So I went to my local Albertsons where they had Mac & Cheese on sale for .49 a box so I filled my cart with 50 yes you read right 50 boxes of Mac & Cheese. Needless to say I was getting some pretty strange looks from the other shoppers. So when the cashier totalled it up before I gave her my preferred card my total was $70.23 and after she scanned my card my total was $25.23 for a savings of $45.00 crazy huh? But than they print you the rebate form to send in for $20.00 check back from Kraft so really for 50 boxes of this yummy entree I only paid $5.23....NUTS!!!

So than I asked the girl if after she finished that transaction if I could use my coupon today, she said yes so I also got 2 BIG boxes of Ritz Crackers (a must if you have a toddler) for a whopping grand total after my $5.00 coupon of $. 15. No that is not a typo fifteen CENTS! for 2 big boxes of crackers. So tonight I spent $5.38 for all that. Umm good deal? Heck yes it is! So for those of you looking to stock up head to your nearest Albertsons. You don't only have to buy Mac & Cheese there is a whole list of items that qualify for this fantastic deal.

So run.....hurry....Albertsons is giving food away.....for FREE!
