Sam & Colby's Birthday!!!

On February 21st was Sam and Colby's Birthday. Both of the boys wanted to go to the Skid Row and LA Guns concert in Salt Lake at Saltair (total flashback right!!) We purchased the tickets and made plans with my Dad and Teresa to stay with them for the weekend. We left on Friday and the concert was Saturday. Sam's friends from Idaho Cam and Blaine drove down to go to the concert with us, and my sister Alicia and her boyfriend Shane came down on Saturday. It was a blast from the past for sure, but it was a lot of fun. Colby was right at the front of the stage with my sister and rocked out all night. They actually ended up having four bands play and the third band was LA Guns. Before they got on stage there was a comedian who was entertaining the croud and was asking people questions. My sister told him that it was Colby's birthday and that he just turned 15. The comedian pulled him up on stage and talked to him for a while and Colby and two other kids got to introduce LA Guns. This made Colby's day and probably life for awhile. The pictures that I have attached are from Sam's camera phone so they are not that great, but you can get the idea. Colby is the last one on the left. I was so happy for him that I was crying. I'm such a baby when it come to my kids, and you could just tell he was soooo happy, it was amazing. Happy Birthday Sam and Colby I love you both so much, and I'm glad we had so much fun at the concert. While we were at my Dad and Teresa's Jaxon of course was running around like the wild man that he is and ended up running into the corner of a table at full force and gave himself his first black eye. I say first because I know there is more to come, at least there was with Colby. I had to add this picture of Raylie because I love it. She is almost seven months old now, and loves to be in her little walker. She has just recently figured out how to move it and she chases Jaxon all around the living room and kitchen it is really funny.

Super Bowl!!!

Jaxon, Haley, Raylie & Gracie

So no big news to tell you this week. We just watched the Super Bowl on Sunday with our family and Ryan and Alisha Pierce's (Sam's Cousins) family. We of course ate a bunch of junk food, which by the way Lish your brownies are so freakin good and I wish you would have taken them home so I don't eat them all!! We decided to make a little family wager between all of us and made a football square sheet with 100 squares at 25cents a square (I know big spenders!!) Between all the kids and us adults we filled the squares and were ready for the game. We decided that it would be fun to have a winner each (Raylie & Isaac) quarter so we set it as 1st-3rd quarter $5.00 and the last quarter was $10.00. This was a lot of fun because the kids even enjoyed it and wanted to know if they were winning. So the winners went: 1st Quarter: Jaxon, 2nd Quarter: Michelle, 3rd Quarter: Hailey, and 4th Quarter: Alisha. Way to go Pierces!!! It was a lot of fun and the kids really enjoyed playing together, thanks for coming over Ryan and Lish.

I couldn't resist taking this picture Saturday. Daddy and Raylie sleeping, so cute!!
