beautiful inside and out

Sierra just turned 12 on the 4th of July. I couldn't wait to take pictures of her. It's actually been a long time since I've done one of my photo shoots and couldn't wait to do it. Every year she complains about me taking pictures but this time was a little different. She actually liked the dress I bought her and loved the hat that grandma lent her. The suitcase was one that we've had for a long time.
I took her to old Niles to take them. She looked so darn beautiful!!!! WOW!!!! Here are just a few of the pictures I took.











thanks for looking! I'll be posting more pictures soon of Jeremy's shoot that I'll be taking....he doesn't know it yet. LOL

Turning 9

It's hard to believe that this little beauty is going to be 9 this Sunday!!
We will not only be celebrating Independence day...we'll be celebrating her special day!
I was in the car with her today and I told her how beautiful she was.
She says, "mommy why do you look at me like that when you say that?"
I asked her what I looked like and she replied, "you look at me like I'm the only one in the world right now". I thought about it and I must have looked like that because that's the way I felt when I looked at her sweet face. I love her so much!! She's so special!!

Let me tell you some things about this girl right here.

She finds the beauty in everything around. (she gets that from my dad)

She loves her family and puts everyone first. (she gets that from my mom)

She loves stuffed animals because she's sweet. (like her sister)
she's well rounded. Doesn't care about color, size, or if your a boy or girl. She'll play with everyone. (she gets that from her brother)
She is crafty. (she gets that from me)
Likes to save her money and wants to know the return policy to everything(she gets that from her dad)
She see's the good in everyone and loves her Heavenly Father.
She can't wait to be 12 so she can go into the young woman program at church.

Wants to study hard so she can go to college and learn as much as she can!
Thinks Justin Beamer is cute but can't believe he shaved off his hair!

She wants to have two kids when she gets married. One boy who she wants to name Dillon. One girl who she will name Katrina. Why? Because she likes those names.

Only reads non-fiction books. She loves to study about the earth, the planets, plants,
states, animals, and crystals.
Considers herself to be an adventurer and a "animal whisperer". LOL
Thinks everyone should be nice to one another and gets her feelings hurt if your not.
Sometimes gets annoyed with her nephew Tanner but admitted to me today
that she can't wait til' he goes to Kindergarten because she wants to be the one
to pick him up from his class. Why I asked? "because it's always been my dream to".
Heavenly Father has blessed me with this little soul and I pray that I can be the mommy she needs me to be, to help her grow up to be the Young woman that she wants to be.
I love you baby girl!

Ready...set...go!!!

On Saturday we celebrated Tanner's birthday party at Patterson Park. It's a really fun and clean park next to Patterson Elementary where Sierra goes to school.
We had a great time with all the little kids playing in the jumpy house, the playground,
the pinata, cake, and "the race!"
Years ago when Jeremy was four we had the same themed party car and all but Angel and Christian went crazy wild and decided to turn the cars into
Lightning mcqueen from the movie Cars. The cars came out amazing!!
Here are some pictures but they don't do them justice.
The face, the backs, and the wheels were separate pieces glued together!
Angel had created her own templates and cut them out and Christian painted then put them together. Love the lightning bolts on the side!

The car
The auto shop
Tanner racing
I made license plates and drivers license for each of the kids.
They had to present their license to Christian to get their cars and then they glued the license plate to the back.
Baby Tristan in his car!! SO CUTE!!
All the kids getting ready to parade to their spots and then get ready
for their race.
This is Niko in his car

We had a great time and it was so good to see all the smiling faces!!!
I love that everyone in the family participated in preparing for the party!
Love my little Tanner!!
