Cousins

Luke loves his cousins, especially his cousin Hailey. They are only 4 months apart in age and have so much fun together. Last Thursday my sister-in-law, Heather's, dad passed away from a tragic accident so we were able to spend a lot of time my niece's Sadie, Brinley and Hailey while Eric and Heather were spending time with Family. Heather's dad, Mert, was a truly amazing man and we will all miss him.

Luke and Hailey had so much fun playing together, here are a few pictures of them hanging out. Funny thing is, Hailey has never had a binki but as long as Luke had one she wanted one too! So these may be the only pictures ever of Hailey with a binki in her mouth. The only problem now is that Luke is going through Hailey withdrawls, he asks for her all day long.

Christmas Lights

The day after Thanksgiving we ventured downtown to see the Christmas lights. We road the Front Runner downtown so we wouldn't have to mess with parking. We had a great time and it was a great start to the holiday season!

Go Utes!

Wheeler Farm

This past week we went to Wheeler Farm with some friends. I had so much fun taking pictures that I went a little overboard. Be prepared, there a lot of pictures below. Since this blog is also my scrapbook/journal I decided to include all my favorites even though there are so many. Enjoy!

My Little Reader

I love that Luke likes to read books. He loves to go in his room and plop down in front of his bookshelf and pull his books off and flip through the pages. He will sit and do this for about an hour every day. He loves to look through them by himself and only lets me read them to him when it bedtime. So here is my little reader!

Don't be Jealous....

I went to the New Kids on the Block reunion tour concert Saturday night! Megg's brother in law, Rich, recently opened a frozen yogurt shop in Provo called Yozone (which by the way is the best frozen yogurt ever). Anyway, one of his suppliers gave him five tickets to the concert in their Box Suite. So Meggan arranged one of the funnest GNO's ever! Funny thing was at first Megg told me we were going to see Backstreet Boys and I thought it would be fun even though I didn't know any of their music, but then we found out it was NKOTB and it totally took me back to the fifth grade when I got my first NKOTB cassette tape. That's right, I was a fan back in the day.

It was actually really funny to see them on stage trying to sing and dance like they were 18 again. They really don't sing very well and I didn't know any of their new stuff but it was fun to sing and dance to their old hits, even though they were a half a step flat on all their songs (or so Meggan told me, I don't have a musical bone in my body so I wouldn't know, all I know is they didn't sing very well!). It was also quite entertaining to watch all of the 30+ year old women scream and get so excited. Fun times and a night to remember.

The opening act was Natasha Bedingfield and she was fantastic! She has an amazing voice and sounded great live. I only wish it was NKOTB opening for her and we could have heard more of her stuff. I think I'll buy her CD and I'll keep you all posted on how I like it.

Me, Clara, Meggan, April, and Steph

(Clara and April are superfans!)

For all of you who didn't get a chance to go, here is what you missed out on:)!
