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...

Whoa baby, it's been a lonnnng time!

OK, here we go... my attempt to play catch up... Scrolling down you see it was just a few posts ago that I was so proud of my new lil 2nd grader. Well as time so often does it just flew right by and we just wrapped up 2nd grade year... watch out 3rd grade. As tradition in our house here is Sam's mini shoot commemorating her 2nd grade year.

Brody stories...

I know I’m biased, but I really do think my kids are hilarious and say the funniest things. Here’s a Brody story for you... Last Sunday (May 20th) we were eating dinner with the TV on in the background turned down pretty low. We were all talking about random things and then some image flashed on the TV. Scott looked to Brody and said ‘what is that?’. Side note: we are always trying to quiz him on what things look like and what he sees and if he can make out objects at certain distances away...given his eye issues. Well, I don’t remember what the photo or image was on TV, but I remember his answer being not quite right. So a few seconds later something else appeared on TV - I think it was a cactus - and we quickly asked Brody ‘what is that?’... and he said cactus. And then a dog came on the screen and he just said dog (like the trained animal HE is ;-). And then...the next thing that came on the screen was a photo of some restaurant’s wine cellar and wine selection. So I asked,

Our prima ballerina!

Miss Sammy had her 2nd dance recital with Miss Annie's dance class. I was beaming ear to ear watching her dance her heart out. She was absolutely beautiful, graceful and completely poised. I'm so glad she enjoys dance class and can't wait to start up the next session.

Juggling it all...
