Lifetime Friends!

What am I to do.... silly, laughing boys around the clock? There are not too many moments at our house where Landon and Mason are not laughing hysterically at each other. They think the other is completely hilarious (uh?). It has become somewhat of an annoyance to me and I am afraid to say that I have been quoted to say "No more laughing!". (And I even have a sign above my stove that reads "Live well, Laugh Often, Love More"). I decided today that I guess the silliness and laughing is better than fighting, arguing, and crying. So I guess the next time I hear Landon tell Mason he's hilarious while belly aching on the floor, I'll be grateful they truly love and enjoy each other.


Recently I had the boys pictures taken by my favorite photographer. Of course they had a blast being themselves. But I think she really captured how great of friends they are to each other.

1. So maybe I won't make this one into a 16x20 print for my wall, but it is totally them, that it will be printed in some form.






As far as lifetime friends for me, last Sunday I was visited by two friends I had while growing up in Auburn. Bekha was visiting Auburn from Utah, and Jubilyn lives about 30 minutes away. I get to see Jubilyn along with other former Auburnites fairly often and it is always so good to visit with them and reminis about then and now times in our lives. However, it had been along time since I had seen Bekha. She is an amazing person with unbelievable strength. We talked for several hours, it was so good to catch up. Bekha also gave me some more insight into Utah County because she live there!

In my life book, friends are for a lifetime!

Cute, Auburn flashbacks. Behka seems to get back to Seattle way more than me. I'm jealous!!

Your boys are hillarious. Sometimes my girls get really crazy and laugh alot too. And I often find myself about to tell them to stop laughing and being wild then stop and remember that atleast their laughing and not crying. I totally know what you mean.

I really like those pictures. I think that first one is so them and priceless really. Love it! I also like the other one that is so similar but they are both just smiling. That could be a 16x20. Angie does such great work!

I love your boys they are so cute, and it is fun to see them walk to school in the morning. I just recently heard of your move and I am sad that you are leaving us, but I know you will be doing something good for your family and will be fine there. Plus I live in your parents' ward, I will see you when you visit. Good luck with everything and let me know if you need any help with anything.

So I hear your family is headed to Utah? Sean Washington told Jarom. Did you sell your home or are you renting it out? How exciting for all of you. You guys will def. be missed in Lakeland at church & the school & community. You are such a great family! I see your mom around Sumner every now & then, don't think she has any clue who I am (I know I've met her, but every time I see her I try to get eye contact to say "Hello" but she never looks up or my way. Funny. Well, okay...now I'll comment on your post- WAY TOO CUTE, I love these pics of the boys & the others w/ the same photographer of Lydia & Jocob awhile back. I know quite a few people use her, who is she? I need her number, great pictures! If you get a chance drop me an email: mattcarlaandkids@yahoo.com
Thanks, & good luck w/ the move & everything!
