We drove up Provo Canyon last week for our fall family pictures. Jenn shot our family and I shot the kids. I had so much fun and the boys did really good! (Thank heavens for bribery!! Yes I use candy to bribe my children!) The pictures of the boys are all posted in the right column. I love my job! Here are some pictures of other photo shoots (and a Christmas Card) that I've done:

Just Call Me Corky!
So we went to a silent auction last Friday night. I bid on this really cool BYU Basket for Mark. It had a BYU T-shirt, BYU hat, the Fall 2008 True Blue magazine, all signed by #45 Harvey Unga and of course tickets to a game. Pretty cool, right?
I was in a hurry when I wrote down my bid and there were several BYU baskets (this was one of the best) some were for the next day’s game, others were for games in November. These tickets were for BYU vs. New Mexico in November. Perfect! My friend, Michele, called that evening to let me know that I won. I told her it was a surprise for Mark and asked if she would just hold on to basket and I would get it from her on Monday while he was at work.
Saturday morning we went to see the Golding boys play football. I was telling Jen about the basket I won and she said she’d watch the kids for us for the game. I wasn’t going to tell Mark about it at all, we were just going to show up at the game. Then I’d give him the rest of the basket for Christmas.
Saturday evening, we were heading to dinner with Mark’s brother Joe and his sister Marlene. (I had told Marlene about the basket earlier in the day and that it was for the New Mexico game.) Mark was checking the score on his Blackberry while we were driving. I asked Joe who they were playing and he said, “New Mexico.” I about died, Marlene felt so bad. Ryan just laughed! Mark kept asking what was wrong, so I had to tell him. I still wasn’t sure if it was actually that day’s game, so I tried to get a hold of Michele to have her check the tickets. I was finally able to reach her and we totally missed it! The game started at 4pm and it was already past 6pm. I totally looked at the tickets wrong! What a bummer! Oh, well, I had good intentions. The weather was crappy and we had plans with his family so Mark wasn’t too upset. He was pretty happy about the rest of the basket, still. I just feel bad that I ruined one of his Christmas surprises. Just call me Corky!

I'll be back!
My lack of internet these days has kept me from posting, but not to worry, I'll be back online soon!
