Random iphone pics

So I found SEVERAL random pictures on my iPhone...some are from 2-3 years back!!! I couldn't resist posting them!!


I think this was just after Seth got home from his mission in Thailand in 2009, eating Burger King wearing some attractive glasses.



Again, Seth just after he got home from his mission in Thailand trying on one of the girl tutu's I was making.



I had to laugh about these photos.  Ethan has autism, but that's what make him so comical! He put on Papa Jerry Cooke's reading glasses & started "reading" the newspaper so he could pretend to be Jerry!!


So I'm not quite sure when these photos were taken of Kevin, but does it really matter? I mean everything about these pictures are timeless & exude elegance and are just all-around classy!



When Marley would visit Mack Larsen's house, she LOVED to ride the little horse toy he had, but would always insist on wearing the cowboy hat!



This is Mack Larsen's Halloween Costume, maybe from 2010?



Marley & Grace just after Grace was born...probably September or October of 2010.



We were getting new living room furniture & Jen Davis came over & I told her she could sit in Marley's recliner since we were sans couches.



During the winter, when it was too cold to really be outside, I'd take Marley to Target to play in their toy section (which she loved to do!!)




This is one of my favorite Jazz basketball players Raja Bell!  I had a chance to talk to him but by the time I realized who it was, he'd already walked by.  Since he was with his son, I didn't want to chase him down.



Marley stuck this random bunch off tulle on her head as a head band.




Marley & Grace! I love the baby snow suit!!



Marley supporting the Suns basketball!!!



This was a time we went to Discovery Gateway Children's Museum.



Alece volunteers for a hospice organization & they held a holiday dinner for all volunteers as a sign of appreciation for their help.  Alece had to stand up & accept some token of thanks & talk about what she liked about volunteering.  Maybe 2010...?




Oh I think Grace looks SOO cute in her little zip-front hoodie!! Couldn't resist posting it!



My father-in-law, Jerry Cooke, after having cataract surgery.  Looking cool!  Probably summertime 2011.



Again Discovery Gateway Children's Museum, but we happened to run in to Dalloway Smith (who is so darn cute!!)



This was a baby shower I went to for Nancy Bunnell.  I had to take a picture of Maren Larsen wearing her make-shift toilet paper diaper!




I have no idea what Marley & Mack are doing...

Hot Pink Lipstick

I'm not sure if I posted these pictures yet...sometimes I take so many pictures, I kind of loose track of what I have and have not posted!
Grace is following in Marley's footsteps (or maybe the footsteps of most every little girl for that matter), and got a hold of the lipstick so she could paint  her lips and cheeks a hot pink color! (Plus, I think she may have ingested some of it!!)









Goofy Glasses

I cannot remember if I posted these pictures or not, and couldn't find them on the blog anywhere.  So I decided to post them, even if they are posted twice because I crack up every time I look at them!  Kevin uses these glasses when he rides his motor cycle at night because they block the wind from his eyes, but aren't shaded like sunglasses.

Park City with the Coopers

When the Cooper's came to town, we decided to spend sometime together in Park City.  We rented a condo & got to hang out for the weekend! We had a great time!!  I can't believe how big & cute Ezra is!  He's so adorable!!




Marley always has so much fun with Charlie!



SUBLIME and 311

Even though Kevin has already seen Sublime in concert, I wanted to see them along with 311. So we got tickets & went out to good ol' West Valley! Let's just say, lots of people come out of the woodwork for these types of concerts! It was a rough looking crowd!!


Left hand side is the front man for Sublime: Rome Ramirez. The lady on the right side was completely out of her mind doing her drunk dance...I guess you could call it entertaining.

Didn't get the best pictures of 311 but Kevin & I couldn't get over how SA Martinez was dressed doing his prance dance around the stage. It was pretty entertaining!




A Bit Too Small

I was going through some of Grace's clothes to pull out bigger sizes & put away the ones she doesn't fit into any more & I found the monkey costume that Marley wore when she was about Grace's age. Marley was dying to put it on & it was awkwardly too small!!










A-ju ma-si-sseo-sseo-yo (delicious) Korean


We went to a really good Korean restaurant (I'd actually never eaten Korean food before) out on the west side of the valley. As you can see there are Asians in the background, and if they're eating at this restaurant, you know it has to be good! Kevin & Jefferson Davis have some sort of weird connection as they both wore purple shirts...





Sidewalk Chalk & Diapers

One beautiful Sunday, we went out in the front yard so Marley could play with her sidewalk chalk she was DYING to use. For whatever reason, Grace ended up walking around in only a diaper. A bit white trash, I know, but I feel she looks so adorable in her diaper! She doesn't walk alone yet (she still holds on to things to walk), but she can now stand out on her on without having to use something to pull herself up.




Splash Pad with Kylie

We met up with Janarae & her daughter Kylie & Rachel & her three daughters in Eagle Mountain at this cool little splash park.  Marley had such a good time! I wish that there were one of these closer to where we live!!!








We ended back at Janarae's houses & since Janarae's back yard isn't finished yet, but the neighbor's yard is, the girls looked longingly at the play equipment next door!


Groucho Marx

Marley got these Groucho Marx glasses, nose & mustache & this silly joke cards from some kid meal that she got.  It cracks me up when she wears them.  But what is really weird, is when Kevin puts them on & tell the jokes on the cards trying to make us laugh!

The little pink stool

Even though I got this stool before Grace was old enough to use it, both her & Marley fight to climb on it.  I try to get them to share it, but I might have to just break down & buy another one!!






Grace's favorite chair

Grace LOVES this chair!  She thinks that it is hers & if ANYONE else sits in the chair, she insists that they  sit elsewhere so she can get in it!

Baby Booty!

Grace just must have a thing for chairs. She is always climbing in her recliner. She often escapes just before I'm putting her in the tub to go play on the chair! How cute is that little baby-body-booty!!! I love her so much!!!!!


What a Mess!!!

We are in the process of getting new master bedroom furniture (Paula Deen style--Hallelujah!!!) So we used Grace's room as a place to store all of our stuff until we got the furniture situated (poor kid!) Anyway, Kevin decided it would be nice to take a picture of all of us wading through the mess...ugh! Makes me feel like a HOARDER!!!






FAUX HAIR

Grandma Ruth is ALWAYS finding these interesting/cute things for the girls. She was at a baseball game when she saw a little girl wearing this & wanted Grace to have one!! A fake hair piece!! I can't get over how goofy it looks!! Makes me laugh every time I look at it!




Then I got Alece to wear it....









FOR THE LOVE OF THE GREEN CHAIR

So we have this soft little green chair that EVERYONE loves to sit in, especially Grace. I often catch her going into Marley's bedroom so she can lounge around in this chair!!
