Sunday morning I woke up and hopped in the bath to try and ease some of the tension and fatigue from a night full of sporadic contractions. I had contractions about 10 minutes apart all day. That evening, Jake and Kate invited us over for some corn chowder and a movie, but I just couldn’t…

wow!!! luisa she looks pretty she reminds me of her big brother
I love these photos! What a sweet experience! I felt the same way when Jackson was born, its amazing how your capacity to love just grows and grows and grows! You are such a beautiful and sweet mama. Te re extraño mi amiga!
It is a wonderful thing when the fair comes to town! We had such a blast being there, and granted, we didn’t stay too long. But we saw the art exhibits and LOTS of animals. We ate gyros, corn dogs, popcorn, scones, strawberry lemonade, elephant ears and cotton candy. Fair food just might be the…

Hey Daddy!! Of course I remember the Topsfield Fair! It was one of my favorite activities of the year! I remember the year that Mom won an award for her Chocolate Angel Food cake and seeing all the winners for Quilts and Most Giant Pumpkins, etc! Thanks for taking us kids on all those adventures! Now I can appreciate how much work it was for you. ; ) Love you so much, Daddy!
How much fun to go the the fair, Luisa, do you remember going to the Topsfield fair. I remember being cold and crowded but I also remember the concerts. The Italian sausages subs and the corn on the cobb, also the crazy traffic getting there.
I love the pictures of Jace and the scruffy face on Nate. I am glad that Jace liked the petting zoo, it can be really fun.
Lots of Hugs and Kisses,
Pappa-daddy
i love it!!! he is such a doll!!! so glad you posted.

There comes a time in the existence of every family that all the little birds leave the nest and scatter to the 4 corners of the earth. My family is almost to that point, so my parents have set the goal to have a family reunion every single year to make new memories and keep…

This might be one of Nate’s favorite holidays of the year: nothing brings out the inner child in grown men more than lighting things on fire and watching them explode. But before we began our evening festivities, we decided to head to Eagle Island State Park and swim to our hearts content. Sometimes I forget,…

We are having a girl!! For some reason, that just seems right. This pregnancy has been much different than Jace’s was. Apparently, his was a piece of cake, but this little chica has been putting me through the ringer. Not only did the morning sickness hit WAY earlier than Jace’s ever did, it has lasted…

After a gorgeous bike ride on the Green Belt in Downtown Boise, we went to Jake and Kate’s for a BBQ. The lighting was just divine and we couldn’t help but bring out the camera.

My entire side of the family, the Morales’, all had the opportunity to get together to celebrate the graduation’s of Andrew, my little brother and his darling wife, Danella. We came from far and wide and gathered in UT for the occasion. We began our festivities by going to the temple, enjoying a session there…

I absolutly love these pix’s. Especially the wonderful news, I love telling the story of that picture. Capturing a a great memory on film is the true magic of photography!!!
I CANNOT believe how time flies. 4 years… really?? Life is never better than when you are married to the person of your dreams, and I can literally say that. These have been the best years of my life. Thank you, Nate, for making me so happy! On our day, we took Jace to the…

There are a few things about Boise that we ABSOLUTELY love. This is one of them. We had our first picnic of the year today. A one year old shouldn’t have to be stuck indoors all day like Jace was this winter. He goes a little stir crazy, but finally, we are coming into Spring…

We had a great day for Thanksgiving and we spent it with Nate’s brother and sister-in-law. It was such a sweet and gorgeous day. This is the third time that Kate and I have worked on Thanksgiving together, and it gets a bit easier every year. While we were preparing dinner, it was so cute…

I have been imagining this trip for the past 6 months. When I registered to run the Grand Canyon Marathon, Nate and I decided that we were going to make a HUGE trip out of it. With all the energy and enthusiasm that Nate could muster [which is a lot...], he planned a 2 week…

The magic of holidays has quickly infiltrated our home and family now that Nate and I have a child to celebrate with. We have been SO excited to do all the traditions that make holidays so much fun. Last year, I think we missed Halloween completely. Well, THIS YEAR, we took it to some extremes….

It was one of those transitionary summer-to-fall days. We wore short sleeves. The sun was shining and there was a warm wind blowing, and during Nate’s ‘lunch break’, we decided that we HAD to get out of the house and enjoy the weather before the cold front rolls in. We headed out to the nearest…

Her middle name is ACTUALLY Katherine [but I call her Gracie-Lu] and Gracie is my 2nd oldest niece. She turned 8 this September 24th, and on her birthday she asked her mom if we could run the St. Luke’s Women’s Fitness 5K together. What an amazing little girl!! To want to do a running event…

Jace got to go to the CIRCUS for the very first time last week!! Although he THOROUGHLY enjoyed all the lights and music, Nate and I really just used him as a good excuse to go ourselves. IT WAS SO MUCH FUN!! The pictures below were taken during the pre-show, because no cameras were allowed…

We happened across it quite by chance. We decided to drive into downtown Boise and have a picnic. We LOVE picnics, and probably have at least one a week in the summer. There were hundreds of booths and thousands of people and we asked the parking attendant what was going on. He replied: “Art in…

Just down the road from us is a petting zoo/pumpkin patch/berry farm all in one! Coincidentally, it is actually called ‘The Berry Farm”. Who’da thought? Nate and I are fiends for fresh berries and they are quite expensive at the store. So Nate and I decided we were going to go get some of our…

Just about everyone has a Bucket List, right? At least an unofficial one? On my Bucket List are two very important things to me. One is to see the Grand Canyon someday, and the other is to run a marathon. As my luck would have it, The Grand Canyon itself actually hosts a marathon every…
