Bieber Fever

We have some great friends that asked Hope and I to join them in their suite at the Justin Bieber concert.  Hope and I knew exactly ONE Justin Bieber song that had been sung by someone at her school talent show.  But when you have a chance to spend a night with great friends in a suite, you just can't pass it up!  Well,  Hope had a GREAT time at her first concert and only got a little upset that I wouldn't buy her a $40 Bieber shirt.  Sorry - i don't even spend that much on my shirts.  I loved watching her dance and sing along!

Can you tell I was tired!!

OMG!!!  It's Justin!!

4th of July

We had a great 4th of July in Albuquerque.  We went swimming with Big Pappy, Ben, and Bryce, had a great BBQ courtesy of Big Pappy and then went over to some of their friends' house to watch and shoot off TONS of fireworks.  All of this and I got almost NO pictures.  These terrible shots from my cell phone are all I got from the whole weekend!!!

GT did, however, get some good baby pictures!

Keystone

Brandon's company had their Summer Regional Meeting in Keystone last weekend. Luckily, for us, his company includes the family in the fun! Brandon had some meetings to go to and I had a couple to attend as well, but the rest of the time was for fun, fun, fun! They put us up at a great hotel, fed us great food, and even had wonderful, fun child care for our children so we could have dinner and go to a wine and cheese party just a cheese party for me, darn it! without kids!

We had great lunches, a "hoe down" dinner, an awards dinner with DELICIOUS food, shopping, paddle boating, feeding ducks and fish, swimming, arcade games - besides lack of sleep, a good time was had by all!

Checking Out the Ducks

"Chicken Dancing" at the hoe down!

TIRED, but did not want to stop dancing!

Ready to Paddleboat

Feeding Ducks and Geese - EJ kept holding food out for the geese and everytime she'd yell "That geese bited my finger!!!", like it was a big shock to her each time. :)

On the lake

Ready to go!

Thanks, Edward Jones, for a great weekend!!

Wordless Wednesday

Tomorrow

Hope was in an "Annie" acting camp last week with about 50 other kids. There were 5 or 6 girls that played Annie throughout their final "show" for parents. Hope was Annie in Scene 2 and got to sing a "Tomorrow" duet with the apple seller. I didn't have a great seat for video so the quality is not great and you'll probably have to turn it all the way up to hear anything - sorry!

In case you can't tell - Hope's the one in the big red wig. :)

Cheese!

Father's Day at the Rockies:

Party Time!

We finally had Hope's birthday party last week. Since the end of the school year is always so crazy, we decided to wait until after school was out. She invited a few friends for a trip to the mall for some shopping and dinner and then a sleepover and swimming the next day! I somehow forgot to take swimming pictures. :(
