Smash Mouth Concert

This past weekend my family and I went to the Smash Mouth concert at SUU. Brent was unable to go with us because he had a class in St. George. We really missed him! Cam brought his best friend Rachel to take Brent's ticket. It was the first concert Rachel, Cameron and Paige had been to and they were very excited. When we got to the college we were excited to find to find that our tickets were not only for front row seats but also dead center. We were sitting right in front of the mic! The concert was a blast! We eventually moved up to the stage (so that stupid kids couldn't get in front of us). Dad was able to shake hands with Steve (the singer) and I touched his shoe! lol. This year we were glad to see that the security was successful in stopping stupid people from getting on stage. One tried and was escorted out very quickly.We danced and sang along the whole night. It was so much fun! It was a great concert and I was glad to have my family there to share it with me. I just wish Brent was able to come with us.

Baby Blessings

This was the 3rd week in a row that we have attended a baby blessing. On the 31st of August a friend of Brent's, Jarom and Leslie Hlebasko, blessed their daughter Jayden. It was very cool to be able to be there and support them. Jarom is a quadriplegic so it was a very sweet moment to see him be able to hold his daughter and bless her.

On the 7th of September, my cousins Ryan and Melanie Sorensen blessed their daughter Janey. Janey was born 3 months early, weighing 1 pound, and has had many miracles in her life thus far. She is now about 7 months old and such a sweet spirit. She has one of those smiles that makes you just melt and be happy. It is nothing short of another miracle that she is still here and that Ryan was finally able to give her a name and blessing. It is truly amazing to see how far she has come and how much she has grown.


September 14th Brent's brother Mark and his wife Emily blessed their first. Brent & mine's third nephew, Scott. It was really nice to see family and to relax. Scott fits right in with our family. He is a mirror image of Mark. It was wonderful to be able to share that moment with them and to visit with our family.
