September happen'ns...


Crazy hair day at school...
That little face is just too cute!
 Matt wins. He totally wins.
He surprised me and took me to the TAYLOR SWIFT concert!
It was AMAZING! Amazing doesn't even begin to describe it actually.


 He actually bought tickets the day of the concert and ended up getting 
dang good seats for a pretty good price. I am dying...still...thinking about it!
 It really was hard to contain my excitement all day long!
 Her concert was really less of a concert and more of a show!
She was all over the stage, and had this cat walk that would rise 30 ft
above the stage and swivel around. She was able to get pretty close to so much
of the crowd. The crowd was NUTS. And the special effects were awesome.
I sung my heart out and danced danced danced! Matt was swaying and at least
he stood next to me all night so I wasn't dancing all alone (I was in the
seat next to the isle:). But at the same time I didn't even care! It was too fun!
After the concert we went and got breakfast at a diner at 12:30am.
Such a fun date night!

 Luke's new cool hair cut. Little stud!


Some more pics from Dev's birthday...



 My handsome men!

 We took a drive through the Alpine Loop and had a picnic on a Sunday afternoon.
The leaves are changing and the fall weather is gorgeous!


 We've even had some good rain storms lately too!

 Funny James got this cheap helmet stuck on his head. Like really stuck. What the?

 Finding Halloween teeth

And the DIRTY DASH!
Another fun date this month...we teamed up with some other people from Matt's office
and we did the Dirty Dash in Heber. It was such a blast!
We basically climbed through a bunch of mud obstacle courses, waded through
freezing cold, muddy water and more. It really was so fun!
Afterwards Matt and I rushed home, showered and went out with our neighbors
for date night. I'm so glad we've been able to get out and have some fun dates recently!



 Dr. Young and Dr. Matt-good sports!

Happy 5th Birthday Devin!!!

Devin turned 5 yesterday!!!
I still can't believe it!

He had a fun day.
Breakfast consisted of Cinnamon Toast Crunch with chocolate milk on the side.
We played wii games together.
Played some board games.
One gift he got was clay. We sculptured clay (such a mess!).


 Dev made his hair "so crazy like shark boy" per one of his birthday requests!
We met daddy and aunt Sarah for lunch at Los Hermanos.
They sang happy birthday to him and I thought he was going to cry!
They're so loud and they crept up on him. It was pretty funny.
 Sarah came back home with us and she played more games with him.
We made homemade (might I add, delicious!) pizza.
They boys made their own. 
 Then I was sorta feeling bad because I didn't feel like throwing a big 
friend party this year...but the best thing happened.
When it was time to cut the cake we called our neighbors over.
They came, had cake, opened some more presents, 
played one round of a game and sent them home.
And EVERYONE was happy!
And it was super easy! :)





HAPPY BIRTHDAY to my big boy Devin!

Devin Starts Pre-K!!!

Our little firecracker, Devin, started pre-k this year!
He will be turning FIVE next week, and barely misses the cutoff for Kindergarten this year.
And I am a-okay with that! I think an extra year will be good for him. :)

He'll be going to this wonderful preschool near us. They focus a lot on music and art.
They have four classrooms, and each class rotates through all four classes each day.
One room is a big art studio. Another room has a stage where they learn about instruments, music, 
dancing, singing and performing. And another is a big play room with different stations, they read and play. In the last room they learn phonics, letters/numbers, etc.

So far he loves it!
I just can't believe he'll be turning five already!

 Everyone always comments on his (and James') red hair. I see it so often I sometimes
don't realize how red they are, until I see photos of them! It's hard to believe we have two 
little red heads in our family. But I love it!!
