99 - Concerts with Neil

This has been an exciting summer for concerts.  Both concerts have been outside venues, which is nice, but warm.  We have been pretty lucky to not get rained on.  Neil and I went to see the Counting Crows (my favorite band) and also to see Switchfoot (who was opening for Goo Goo Dolls).  Switchfoot is the band that Neil uses for all of the kids videos, so it was so hard to not cry and think of my babies while we were there.  They put on a really good show though.  The lead singer came out into the crowd and was actually standing on my chair singing, but I figured people didn't want a picture of his nose hairs, so this picture is much better.

#62 - Monthly Crafts January 2010


Macy was worried about the birds being cold outside, so she wanted to make them a bird house. I think we did pretty good using only stuff we had around the house. So far we've seen a couple birds fly into it, but none have stayed. Might have something to do with the very unstable branch it is hung from.

72. The Princess & the Frog

Auntie Kellie had special event tickets to see the Princess and the Frog. So Uncle Phil watched Tyler, while Auntie Kellie, Avery, Macy and I, went out to lunch, then to see her first movie in a theater and lastly for Ice Cream. It was a great day and she really loved the movie.
