That's My Boy!!

I am still posting these pictures even though I know Nick will look at this! We'll get through this together Hon! My little Cooper is surrounded by women all day long so why wouldn't he take a liking to womans shoes and princess dresses??? All I know is that women would kill to have legs like this...
This is the "look what I found? She's taking pictures of me so it must be ok," LOOK! Oops. I probably should not encourage!



We all know what he's thinking right now... "Wow, this is really hard, I need to take a break!" TELL US ABOUT IT!

When you look this cute in high heels, its a crime not to take pictures! As long as the pictures end this year right babes?!?! I LOVE MY COOPS!

Quick Tag!

So I was tagged awhile ago and have been a little crazy to answer all of the questions, so here is my sad excuse to fullfill the tagging requirements!

3 things that you may not know about me!!!

1.) I teach seminary. I started teaching early morning seminary on Aug 6 in my home. Because the Highschools do not have released time seminary we have it at 6am (super early) and because the closest church is 20 minutes either way we have it in my home. I love teaching and learning about the Old Testiment! I have about 15 students and they are all wonderful. Because I don't know anything about the Old Testiment I have to prepare about 3 hours a day, but I love learning all about the prophets of the Old Testiment!















2.) I love photography. I have been working on getting my portfolio put together and soon I will finish my photography website. I have been taking a lot of family portraits, and doing pictures of kids in the last year. I really enjoy working with people and capturing their great memories!


























I just took these pictures of a family in our ward that wanted some shots of her kids! I am just starting out but I would love to learn more!




3.) I love to scrapbook. I am in this scrapbook swap and I love it. Each person comes up with one idea and makes 4 of them, and then you pass them around. In the end you have four different layouts. A great/easier way to scrapbook.

Ok, I know there are so many more questions about jobs and stuff but that will have to wait until Fall break when I have a few days off! :)

Who Done It??

There's been a murder at the Siddoway home and our job is to find out which one of us is the murderer!

Last weekend we had a Murder Mystery dinner at our house. There were 8 of us there all dressed up in character and we were all suspects in the murder. There was Rip Tide, the scuba instructor/Nick; Birdie Putt, the golf pro/Me; Les Baggs, the clumbsy tourist/Andrew; Leilani, the hula dancer/Stac; Joey Breaker, the surfing dude/Craig; Holly Day, the powerful billionare/Heidi; Chief WikiWiki, the ancient chief/Brandon, and Nadia Seymour, the bikini model/Jackie Lee!

Me and Nick, or should I say Birdie and Rip! And my I add yes he is ripped!!! :)

Stacy and Andrew/Lelani and Les



Heidi and Craig/Holly and the BoJo

Jackie Lee and Brandon/Nadia and Cheif Wiki Wiki
After our Hawaiian dinner the interrogating began and we all had to prove our innocence!
I'm proud of ya Stac!




Some things are better off not knowing!!??


The party was a blast but we ended up convicting the wrong man. Sorry Andrew! The real killer was................................................................................ CRAIG! Mr BoJo! How could you?!?

A Day Spent in a Swimsuit!

Were does the time go, I ask?? Life is so busy that sometimes I forget to stop and just take some pictures of the everyday occurrences. This is an average day in the Siddoway home. The mornings usually start off with the swimsuit discussion. Me trying to convince Sam that maybe we should wear clothes to the grocery store instead of a swimsuit. I always lose, and I've come to be OK with that! (Pick and choose your battles moms!) After the swimsuit discussion comes a little wrestling between the Coops and Sam, and someone usually ends up crying. (Mom does that sound familiar??)


After the tears get wiped away a little Jack gets turned on. Now Cooper is not a child who will sit down and enjoy some good cartoons; he's too busy to just sit and watch TV. BUT...when it comes to "The Nightmare Before Christmas" he can't keep his eyes off Jack, The Pumpkin King!


Usually when Cooper goes down for his afternoon nap we break out the paints. I've decided that I have a little Picasso on my hands, because all she ever wants to do is paint! Lately it has been painting rocks. I don't know what that means!?!?



So that is an average day in the Siddoway home. A whole lot of CRAZINESS! But with that craziness comes a whole lot of FUN, FUN, FUN!!
