Summer Concerts Part 1

First I have to start out by saying I have the best brother EVER!!!! Jamie called me Wednesday night and asked me what I was doing on Friday night. I said, "just the usual, nothing." He then replied by asking "I have two Tim McGraw tickets do you want them?" OF COURSE I DID. Who in their right mind would not want to go and see Tim McGraw?? (Heidi) :) So Friday night we dropped our kids off with Heidi (thanks for saving me last minute) and went to meet up for dinner at Tepanyaki before the concert with my brother and some of his friends. After dinner we headed over to Usana Amphitheatre for the concert. It was so much fun. I have to say that Tim is pretty easy on the eyes!! I could have watched him sing all night long!! This Thursday I am going to the Poison concert. I will have to fill everyone in on that concert next week with my summer concerts part 2. Here are some pictures of Tim for everyone to enjoy. They are not quite the same as seeing him in person though.

Happy Birthday Nicklaus

Yesterday was Niclaus' first birthday!! I can't believe my baby is a year old. Times goes by so fast!! It has been so fun to see his little personality develope the older he gets. He is truly the Thurmanator of our family.

Memorial Weekend

Even though we had crappy weather, we still managed to have fun. Saturday I took JJ up to my parent's property just east of Nephi. He had so much fun hanging out with Pappa in the mountains at the cabin. Then on Sunday we went to Adam's parents house for dinner and to hang out with Annie and Caleb one last time before they left town again. JJ and Nicklaus love playing with their aunts and uncles, they are much more fun than boring mom and dad. Then on Monday we had a BBQ with our neighbors. They have two little girls that JJ adores and loves to play with. It is always fun to spend extra time with family and friends!!!

Utah Kids Club

I was just wondering if anyone was a member of utah kids club? I was told about it today and looked it up at www.utahkidsclub.com. It looks like a good idea and isn't that expensive to join. I was just wondering if any of you readers have signed up or know more about it.

Meal Time

I have such an independant 11 month old. Nicklaus is always wanting to do things for himself. This also includes feeding himself. He only likes to eat things that he can pick up with his own fingers and eat. If I try to feed him baby food he wants nothing to do with it. As soon as I give him a spoon and let him feed himslef he is all over it, or should I say it is all over him :) It has been fun to see his little personality come alive the older he gets.

fun in the sun at the beach

It was so nice to get the kids out and play in the sun. A few weeks ago when we had a really nice day, Heidi and I walked down to Utah Lake to let the kids play (or Utah Jazz Basketball Lake as JJ calls it)




Check out the snow on the mountains. Only in Utah will you be playing on the beach with snow in the background.



JJ and Maya playing in the sand.



Nicklaus enjoying the sand too.

This was such a nice day, I can't wait for more warm days!!

Here I am!!

Okay, so I have been a slacker lately on my blog. We are already in the middle of April and I haven't made a post since the end of March.

I have a hard time thinking of things to post, I must have a boring life. I know with two kids how can you have a boring life. I guess I just need to be more creative.

What have I been doing the past month? Working, being a mom and having alot of fun play dates with Heidi and her cute kids. I will have to post some pictures of us playing at Utah Lake in the warm spring weather.

I will leave you with what my wonderful three year old told me yesterday. We were at McDonalds playing in the play land. When it was time to leave JJ kept running away from me. Finally I got him in the car....

mom "JJ I am very angry with you for not listening to me and running away from me."

JJ "Mom! I was just freakin' playing in the slides."

I had to turn away so he wouldn't see me laugh. What am I going to do with this kid :)??
