Autumn Pasts

These are old pictures of Zions.
I loved this day so much!! Family and zions.. ummmm.
I wanted some fall pictures so I thought
these would fulfill my need to look at
Autumn pictures until new 2007 leaves
arrive!!

seasons changing

It seems like I am always exciting for the changing season.
I am always excited for the next season ready for warm
sunshine on my face after and long winter and right now ready
for Autumn after a burning hot summer.
The nights are getting brisk up here in the valley and I have
been loving it. Jackets in the evenings, riding in the car
with the windows down and the heat on. I can smell
Fall in the air and I am welcoming it with open arms.
I saw a bare ski run going up to Park city the other day It
gave me butterflies in my stomach.... Fall is about the time
that I start getting super excited for the winter snowboarding season
and not having a spare passenger on board... (baby in the belly) this
year makes it more fun to look forward to.
I am sure it is the color of the dress but this picture of Lucy
reminds me of the beautiful autumn season.. can't wait
to see all the colored leaves!!

growing big

Lucy 2 months old
She is still small but seems so big
to us at 81/2 pounds...

As Ellie likes to say she is our
little sweetie face.

little boys and little girls

Canyon and Ellie Cox
Summer 2007

We tried to get Ellie to put a thorn on her nose
but she rejected that idea in a big way.
She wanted to look pretty for her pictures.

swinging in the summer

Summer is so carefree.. lemonade, friends, and
spending hours a day on a swing floating through
the air looking up at a big tree, pretending you are a
flying fairy. With the sun shining on your face and feeling
the breeze in your hair with nothing else to think about
except going higher of course.

I wish summer days were like this for everyone..even me!!
I loved these pictures of Ellie and her friend Jada. If not me
I am glad Ellie gets to experience it and love it. And does
she ever love it. She spent so much time on that swing
this summer she has two sores one on each leg from the rope
swing to prove it. I guess that is what happens when you insist
on wearing skirts everyday to go swing.

Lucy's smile

Why does the first smile mean so much?
It's like your love doubles at that very moment.
And then you spend the rest of your day trying to
find that smile again.

Lucy gave us her first smile at One month old
It was beautiful and amazing.

A first

After many visits to Provo Falls Canyon decided to make this his year.
There is a first for everything and this was Canyon's first time to
go all the way under the falls!! (with grandmas help)
He seemed so grown up to me. I could see he felt brave
and all grown up with the happy smile he carried on his
handsome face for the rest of the day.
