Hair Vote!

I REALLY need everyone's input ~ Time for a hair vote! I don't know what I want to do with my hair. I really don't like it now - it needs some major help. I am open for anything that is not too much up-keep. Gemma hates the hair dryer so naturally my hair is the last thing on my list. PLEASE let me know how you think I should get it cut and also what you think about coloring!

My hair now - naturally curly (air dry with some anti-frizz)

My hair now - blow dried and straightened

Short and with some color

Long and Natural

Medium and Natural with Bangs

Short with carmel colors

Short with more blonde

Same time as above (just a side view)

Growing it out (still some left over coloring)

Again - same time just a side view

I think this is a little too poofy on the sides

Short with more Auburn tints

Same time

Growing out - All Natural

I think this cute, but I don't really like the length

And I hate this hair cut!

I love all of V.B's hair cuts, but her hair is thin/straight. I have thick curly hair so her same hair cuts would not work the same on me.

I kinda like this . . .

and this, except for the blonde. I want to stay around my natural tones.

I hate this!

And really hate this, except for Halloween or a fashion show! ;)

PLEASE TELL ME WHAT YOU THINK!!!

Gemma is 6-1/2 Months!

Gemma is still such a happy baby! (Even with her cute little teeth coming in.)

She loves to talk and everyone always says how cute her voice is.

She has her serious moments . . .

And thoughtful moments. She is always observant to what is going on around her.

Her hands always go to her face when she is trying to relax. Even when she is eating she has a hand on her face.

She loves to play "Where's Gemma?"

And play in her room

With all her fun toys

My favorite is when she scrunches her nose! SOOOO Cute!

Gemma and Daddy. On a walk right now so mommy can blog ;)

For Brenda & Kajsa :)

Gemma the Actress

Here is Gemma showing us her very first acting skills. She can even create real tears now and be laughing just a second later. Her favorite time to act is either when I put her down or someone else is holding her. As soon as I pick her back up or take her back a little smile will appear on her face and sometimes she even lets out a little laugh. She is a girl who knows how to get what she wants!

Our Love Story - The Short Version

There once was a girl who thought she would never meet a cute "mormon" boy. She had just started a new job in August of 2003 when she saw a boy out her desk window.

Now this guy was HOT, but probably a jerk, she thought to herself. Besides, she had a boyfriend and this new boy was a blonde firefighting hunter - completely opposite of what she imagined her husband to be like. They could still be friends . . .

Tylor had soon spent his entire accident settlement (he was hit by a car) on feeding Rachel. He had won her heart over with food and ice cream!

They soon went to church together - that is after Rachel had found out that Tylor was also LDS - a whole other story.

Then they had their first Valentines together . . .

And celebrated other holidays such as Thanksgiving.

They spent more and more time with each other until . . .

They got engaged in December of 2004!

And were happily married for time and eternity in September of 2005~

HAPPY VALENTINES DAY!!!!
