Nails by Shamie

I had never had my toe nails done before, but I decided to have Shamie Emerson do them for me for our trip to Cancun(which was different from what I have in the picture) but then I had her do them for my sister-in-law's wedding, which was almost one month ago! Anyway, look how great my nails still look (if you get past the dry ugly feet part and just look at the nails). She did a great job and she is very affordable! If you ever need your nails done, have Shamie do them for you! If you need her info, just let me know.

If anyone knows of anyone...

We are still trying to adopt a baby. If you know of anyone, who knows someone that is looking to give their baby up for adoption please let us know. We have had a couple of hard weeks with two disappointments in the process...but we are still looking and wanting that special child we hope will come to us. I have a link to our adoption blog list so please tell everyone you know.

The Martins

So it was our turn to get our pictures done...my friend Stacey took it for us. We had a nice dinner with the Hardy's, our friends from Pleasant Grove. We have been doing our backyard today...things always seem easier as you plan them. Let me just say, Flavio and I worked very hard (especially Flavio) to move some rocks into our yard today. I hope it works out okay, I always seem to see something in my mind, but then come to reality when I realize I am not a professional. But I think our yard is coming along and I will add a picture as soon as it is done.

It is a little portfolio of mine...I love photography!

So this is Hannah at my sister-in-law's wedding. I just love this picture. She got a hold of Natalia's veil and this is the cuteness that happened. It was a good day and we got some great pictures.

What a great Summer!

We had a great Summer! We were able to go and do so many things! My parents came, Flavio parents came, we were able to go see my family and we saw many friends! I was able to go to Japan, we were able to go to Cancun...we just had a great summer. And Hannah showed us all how brave she was on a big slide, while her father cried like a baby! :)

NIPPON

So I never mentioned that I was able to go to Japan. My mom paid for the trip and I was able to see a friend get married in the Tokyo Temple. It was amazing! I stayed with a companion and her family, who were amazing! Momoko's mom made Hannah a kimono! It is just beautiful. Tokyo was great, I loved going back and eating the food, speaking the language and just feeling some of the same feelings I had when I was on my mission. I even was stuffed inside a subway train! It was crazy fun and I am so grateful to my mom for letting me go!
