Awesome Night!!!!

Hello everyone! So it is 12:30 and I got home about an hour ago from the Reba Kelly concert... it was wonderful! They were on stage the WHOLE TIME! They never left the stage, except for a moment when the changed their outfits once (really it was just their shirts) and then they came back out for the encore... not even a minute later. They sang for a whole 2 hours straight. They had their opening act as Melissa Peterman... Better know as Barbara Jean from the sitcom Reba. It was just a wonderful night. Thanks mom for the early b-day gift. It couldn't have been better. Girls nights are always the best, especially when they are with your best friend. I love you Mom! Here are a few pictures from the concert. Oh and by the way we were sitting in the section at the side of the stage... second row up, end seats! Really what could have been better?!?!?!

Mom and I at the concert.

Melissa Peterman being her crazy self.

Being even more crazy.

The two just getting on the stage.

Reba in all her glory. Isn't she beautiful!

Kelly towards the beginning. I have underestimated Kelly and what she can do. She is amazing with her voice. She can do runs and slides like you can't believe.

Together during the encore.

Reba during the encore.

Ending the show. It was sad to see them go, but great while it lasted.

This is Keith Stubbs, from 101.5 the eagle... You wouldn't picture him like this. He voice doesn't match his face, with what you imagine.

Another Great Contest!!!!

A Great Surprise!!!!

I am so excited! My mom called and asked what I was doing this Friday... well nothing really. I mean we plan on going to the Temple twice a month and this Friday we were planning on it... but what's up? My mom then said... give me a minute and I will call you back. Ok whatever. When she called back she said, "Ok well you are now busy on Friday." "Ok mom, what's up?" "I just got tickets for the Reba and Kelly Concert. In the section right by the side of the stage 9 rows up."

Anyway I am way excited. Thanks Mom!

The Utah State Fair

Our yearly tradition of going to State Fair was a blast this year. We go down the Big Yellow Slide. She is such a trooper.
Going through the children's work house... I think she was a little young for it, but it was still a blast. Does she not look beautiful?

There were white tigers new this year. What beautiful animals! Aubrey had a great time watching them.



Now you make think that the next two pictures are the same, but they aren't... we they kind of are. This one was taken this year...And this one last year. Something new to look forward to see.

What a blessing!

So everyone.... Don and I finally have a calling at church. We are Youth Sunday School Teachers for the 14-15 year olds. We taught our first lesson on Sunday and it was a blast. They are great kids and like anything it has it's own challenges. I like the fact that they are old enough to really interact and ask questions and participate with the lesson. I love seeing how young minds interperate the gospel. You can never have enough reminders on the gospel in all the different directions. I am hoping to know all their names by next week so that I can call on them and get them into the lesson.

I would like to ask a question out to all you. What are some good ways to keep their attention, and to actually get them to participate? I am trying to come up with ways so that Don and I are not the only ones talking. And yes kids will be kids, but have I forgotten how much energy young kids have? Anyway I hope all is well with everyone and talk at you later.

Happy October Almost. :)
