Hey! It's me again. 

I just wanted to say....

I got a new photography website! 

allisonkayphotography.com

I'm pretty excited about it.

Click on the link above, or the picture to see my amazing website  :)

Maybe you should head over and check it out.

And then tell everyone about it!

And then book a session for yourself  :)

Ok, thanks.

Bye!

P.S.  I need to give a HUGE thank you to my amazingly awesome and wonderful husband who is so incredibly supportive and always willing to help and encourage and do whatever it is I need. He is the best. 

And he will probably wish that I didn't put this on here  :) 

Ok, I'm done for reals now.

Food Baby

Food

Eating is a big deal around here. 

Enough that I feel like it needs it's own blog post, I guess.

We'll start with our absolute favorite meal: Ranch Chicken!

Ranch Chicken

It is so fast, easy and delicious! It's also very versatile with the sides, which is a big deal to Clayson. 

We often do ranch potatoes (as pictured), rice, or garlic roasted potatoes. Usually with a few sides of vegetables as well  :)

Calzones

Once, I decided to get adventurous and made Calzones. 

They were pretty good, but I'm still a fan of regular homemade pizza.

"We don't ration bacon at our house."

Clayson went on a breakfast kick, and this was not unusual to see at all. 

Yes, we only have 2 people living at our house, and yes, that is all for us (mostly Clayson)

Meat!

This is what our freezer looks like. 

That is all meat! (Along with some delicious homemade jam and corn.)

Olive Garden

And this is our refrigerator. 

We discovered the Get One Take One deal at Olive Garden. 

This fed me all week!

Cereal!

This is our pantry.

We may have a slight cereal problem on our hands....

They were all on such good deals, though, and we couldn't pass it up!

Baby

11 weeks pregnant & 38 weeks pregnant 

When I took this picture in March, not many people knew I was pregnant. But those who did made sure to give me a hard time about being so big that I already had to start wearing Clayson's shirts.

Now, in September, I really am so big that I have to wear his shirts!

I have such wonderful friends and family who have thrown me baby showers!

The best part was just getting to see everyone!

My phone was dead for the family shower, so I don't have any pictures, but it was so fun as well!

Thank you to everyone who made these happen! It really meant a lot to me.

We are getting excited to meet our little one!

Less than a week left! The count-down is on!

and we still don't have a name....

:)

Come To Me My Sweetest Friend

This song gets sung a lot at our house:

(There may be one slightly pornographic part in this video. I apologize. Please be responsible and shield your own eyes)

Like at least every day.

Sometimes multiple times a day.

With various word changes and substitutions.

And it makes me happy.

:)

That's all.

It's Autumn Time!

I don't know what it is about this year, but I am absolutely loving this Fall. 

The colors are amazing!

Here is a quick picture overload of some Autumn time events:

General Conference

Between sessions we always go to Cress Creek.

my cute parents

The only descent picture I've ever been able to get of Clayson by himself

dad

random dog

classic mom

my sister, Courtney

us.... so it gets to be a big picture  :)

Sunrise

I have always been more of a sunset girl (probably has a lot to do with the fact that I'm not usually awake to see the sunrise), 

but lately I have really been enjoying the sunrises!

I love their softness.

This is what I look at as I eat breakfast every morning

This is what I see as I drive to work every morning

 (the above 2 pictures were both curtesy of my phone)

Photo Shoot!

Jana is a great model  :)

Pumpkin Walk

Nick & Krisann came to visit! We went to the Pumpkin Walk and dinner at Cafe Rio (Clayson was so happy)

Now we just need to get them to move to Logan! We already have their house picked out right across the street from us  :)

group selfie!

love Krisann in the back

Fall is the best  :)

p.s. I'm starting to get back into this photography thing again.... if you didn't notice.

Divergent

We saw Divergent with some friends when it first came out. 

We liked it, so we decided to read the book together. It's been really fun and we finished it in 2 weeks. 

We were slightly obsessed.

This was taken on a different day,
but ironically we were actually both wearing the exact same thing

To celebrate finishing the book, I decided to do a Divergent themed date.

There are 5 Factions in the book, so we represented each throughout the date:

Dauntless - The Brave

I only worked a half day at work, but I conveniently "forgot" to tell Clayson.
When he came home (he usually beats me home from work) I ambushed him with my Auto Strike Dart Gun.

War immediately ensued.

battle wound from shooting my gun. It hurts.

Clayson dominated in Target practice, but I won the war  :)

We also gave each other [stick on] tattoos, like the Dauntless. This picture shows Four on the left and Clayson on the right.
The resemblance is striking  :)

Erudite - The Intelligent

To represent Erudite, we took a test. 

What better test to take then the Aptitude Test to see which faction we belong to?

Results:

Clayson: Dauntless

Allison: Amity

Candor - The Honest

To represent Candor, we played Two Truths and a Lie. 

It was challenging to find something that the other didn't already know!

(sorry, no picture)

Amity - The Kind

Amity is "the kind" but they are also known as "the peaceful."

To get our inner peace, we had Yoga competitions to see who could hold the pose longest.

Of course, I won because Amity is my faction  :)

Abnegation - The Selfless

To represent Abnegation, we gave each other back/head massages while we watched the movie Divergent. 

Unfortunately, our massages were kind of weak because we were too caught up in pointing out things that were different in the movie
 and saying what we liked better/worse. 

We were so caught up in the events of the night that we forgot to eat dinner. 

Luckily, I had made chocolate brownies to represent the chocolate cake that they eat in Dauntless.

Brownies for dinner is always a good idea, right? 

Clayson eats the middle and I eat the edges. We work well together.

And why not brownies for breakfast too? 

:)
