Look, We're on a Billboard!

Would you believe it - but the day I blogged about my IHA photo shoot it was the SAME DAY that the ads started rolling out!  The newspaper sitting in the rain on our driveway while I was typing away contained the very picture I was lamenting about!  What are the odds!?

The next day Jake had a business trip to Ohio with a coworker.  They left Canton early in the morning.  As they got on the freeway Jake was telling him about our family.... and right when they passed this digital billboard my face flashed on the screen!  Again - what are the odds!?  CRAZINESS!!!

A week later my parents, the girls, and I drove on the freeway to check it out.  Sure enough - there we were!  Me and the twins!  Southbound I-275 mile marker 19.2!


Here we are in the Canton Observer:

And on their website:

I'm guessing they picked us for the billboard because our shirts match the colors on the ad.  Or maybe cause my babies are just too cute!  It was a fun opportunity and crazy cool to see our faces that big!

I would like to say that the fame isn't getting to our heads, but just the other day we walked outside and some guy recognized me!  Yes, it was my neighbor Don, but that's besides the point.....

I have been in a textbook, on a BYU poster, a museum exhibit and now a billboard.  And how much money have I made from all of these opportunities?  NADA, NOTHING, ZILCH!!!  I think I'm doing something wrong.......

So, do you need to hire security? Or does your full-time publicist also handle that?

You make us proud!

It's so cool that I know someone so famous. WOW!

Was it hard to get married, knowing that maybe Jake just liked you for your fame? I'm glad he was able to see past all the stardom and fall in love with you!

This is so crazy! You all look so cute. I sure miss loving on those babies. Give them an extra snuggle for me.

Jen the day you were born dad and I looked down at your pretty little face and said, “This is a child that will be in a textbook, on a BYU poster, in a museum exhibit, on a website, in a newspaper and on a billboard.” That never happened- there weren’t any websites back then….

I will add that you were on the news and in the Daily Herald as well.
