A night out... (thank you Grandma & Grandpa)

On Thursday we went out to support our very good friend who plays in a band (he's a drummer and he is extremely talented and good) and watched them at what we think was a try-out or audition to be the opening band for a large music fest coming up in September sponsored by a local radio station.  We don't know when they find out if they get the gig, but they were by far the BEST band out of the 3 that played that night.  We always have lots of fun hanging out with Jim and Jamie at these shows... I think we've only missed one or maybe 2 shows since Jim joined the band over a year ago and they play at least once a month.  Really we're just paying our dues so when he becomes rich and famous we can say we know him and maybe he'll give us a job as a roadie or something!! :-)

Here are some pics from the night...

Someone had a birthday...

Albeit almost 6 months ago, but better late than never. Samantha turned 9 years old in January and I cannot believe how big she is.

I love that she is in our family and it would not be the same without her.

A fish called Sam!!

It's sort of a given when you live in this desert land that your kids have to go through this right of passage called city league swim team. And I gotta say... BRING IT ON! Growing up I always wanted to be on a swim team, nevermind that my strokes often look like someone is having a seizure in the water, but none the less I wished I had tried. Well, you better believe that this mama is living vicariously through her kids when it comes to swim. Sweating palms. Nervous stomach. Pacing back and forth... this is usually how you can find me and Scott on the sidelines. I LOVE IT!! She was pretty good last year for her first year, and this year she really did even BETTER...bringing home 3 first place ribbons. I actually only ended up bring my camera to one of her meets, shameful, I know. But in my quest to be ever more present in my kids' lives I didn't want to be all camera-crazed, jockeying for the BEST position with all the mom-tographers videoing their super-star athletes. R...
