So... here's to adventures in blogging!

Hi Family!

I just wanted to send you all an invite to take a peek at my life.  We don't see each other enough, so I thought I would send you this and keep you more involved in our day-to-day lives.... and I thought that Conner's birthday would be a good excuse to get started.

Here are a few cute pictures of the birthday boy:

  This is a gross present. You hook this microscope up to the TV and you can look at all kinds of disgusting things on the big screen. As you might imagine, Conner loves it.

Conner has wanted this 'Duck Hunter' thing since Christmas. Why he doesn't just play it on the Nintendo, I'll never know.

At How to Train Your Dragon on Friday. GO SEE THIS MOVIE. That's an order.

Sheesh, Conner, where did the crazed look come from? Yikes!

This is the second round of candle-blowing. If you know us at all, you know we NEVER just light the candles once. What's the fun if you can't blow them out until they are little nubs? Actually, this time we blew them out only twice because we were DYING for cake.

Also, here are some funny pictures of Carter. This is what happens around here if you leave the cereal bag on the floor. Well, this is what happens before it gets dumped all over and smashed.

In other news, this week and last week have been sort of a blur. We spent a lot of time painting and then staying up late at Shane's work filming sort of a show-off video. He just started his new manager job and really wants to be in charge of the video at work, so some of the big wigs asked him to show what he could do. Finally now, after 4 late night film shoots(topped off by my early morning workouts), I think we finally have what we need to put it together. This week will be devoted to a lot of motion graphics and editing. If anyone has tips on motion graphics for video, I am all ears. He's also started work this week on a local full-length feature film in SLC. AND we need to get ready for Easter, AND get our trailer ready because we're going camping next weekend for Spring Break. If someone has some time they'd like to lend me, I promise I'll take really good care of it. And if you see me in public, don't laugh at the bags under my eyes.
