The Camera is Rolling

Today I woke up like I always do, to the sound of a little boy calling out for us to get him up. Today was different though. After hearing him I heard the "beep" from a video camera and Scott saying, "July 24th, 2010, a day in the life."

I had forgotten. He was filming. Yes, that is right. My artsy fartsy husband has been filming our life from the moment we woke up. That is some really scary footage if you ask me.

It's all part of a you tube project. Here's the link if you're interested.

It calls for compelling footage of your life on July 24, 2010. I don't know that waking up, making muffins, eating with friends, book club, lunch, and the rest of our day is that compelling but we'll see.

I do know that I was filmed at 6:54 this morning and I think I deserve wife of the year for that.

Is the world really ready for this?

This is my husband. Isn't he great!



He has become kind of artsy fartsy in the past couple of years. In fact, he just started a photography website. Well, it's been in the works for a ridiculously long time but it's finally here.

He takes great pictures like this.



It's just something he enjoys. Not something he's doing as a job (Just in case you were wondering).

You can visit the website here.

Enjoy!

Way Behind

I've gotten way behind on blogging. We've had a fun and busy past few weeks and this is definitely the first thing to go. So, I may post a few older posts in the upcoming days in order to catch up....some things are just meant to be shared.

We had a super laid back day on Father's Day this year which is exactly what we all needed. It was just the three of us and we went to church, ate at The Feed Store in Southlake (Scott's choice), and daddy got to play hockey. We were so excited to celebrate all things Scott! He is an amazing husband and dad. We couldn't ask for more!

Here's a picture of my two men. If there was any doubt of who Jax looks like I think this picture is proof that he is his father's son. Even their noses are crinkled the same way.

Here daddy is opening up his card. He got the new iphone for Father's Day. Yes, I know he would have gotten it for himself if we hadn't gotten it for him but he was so happy to have it from us!

My sweet friend Liz sent me this "Dad Life" video. I absolutely love it. So here's to all those awesome dad's and husbands out there. Happy Belated Father's Day!

One more reason to love my hubs

A couple of weeks ago I ran my first half marathon. It was a big deal for me....I did just have a baby a few months ago. I trained for about 8 weeks and rarely got off my schedule. When I make up my mind about something I usually go all out. Scott supported me 100%! I'm not sure that he totally realizes why I would have an interest in running for 2 hours since he despises running but he loved me through it and took care of baby J every Saturday while I did long runs and then when I napped afterward. He never complained.

Then race day came. I do believe he was more excited than I was. His friend let him borrow one of the gigantic sports photographer lenses for his camera. The kind you see on the sidelines of the Cowboys games. This made him giddy. This also made me the most photographed runner in the Cowtown half marathon. Yes, there were over 20,ooo runners that day but I was the most photographed thanks to my hubby. It also gained him access to all the restricted areas of the race. As I crossed the finish line I was looking for him on the oher side of the baracades but no, my hubster was inside the baracades and waiting at the finish line as I crossed it. All because he looked professional with the giantic lense and his stellar photographer stance. This is one more reason that I love him.

Now for a few embarressing photos.

Where's Waldo?

Humilitaing but you can see where my stellar hubs is standing....the finish line.

The boys I love.

My fantastic Mom who came to cheer me on. I sent her and Baby boy to the wrong place to cheer for me during the race so they missed seeing me run but met us downtown afterward.

Our future olympian. When he wins his first gold someday I'll submit this for his olympic slideshow.

Thanks for reading!
