Eddie Vedder performed his new song 'All the Way' during a solo performance here in CHICAGO last month - He wrote this song especially for the CUBS!! I love the song and it is currently burning up the radiowaves around here at the moment. Check it out. . . 
Little K started Preschool last week and oh what an experience it has been. The first day he was ok until we got there - then it was cling on and lots of tears but a happy boy when I picked him up. The second day was worse which I had expected. A half hour before we went it was 'I don't want to go to preschool, I want to stay home'- 'send Quincy mommy'- I don't want to be a big boy, I am too little for preschool'. I have to give him credit he was giving me the serious guilt trip and it was working. Then it was a fight to get him into the car and he screamed the whole way there. I had to drag him back out of the car and he was kicking and screaming 'don't leave me, please don't leave me'. It was horrible. Luckily his teachers were happy to just take the poor kid off my hands and deal with it in their own little way. And again a very happy boy when I picked him up. Monday was a few tears on the way and the teachers said only 30 seconds of crying after I left. And Today . . . NOT one single tear. He marched right on in there, stood in line and 'said by mom, see ya in a couple weeks.' It was pretty funny and such a relief from the previous experience. I know he is loving it, he just isn't willing to admit that yet. It has been good for both of us to have a little space and great for him to gain some independence. With a little bribery from daddy and grandpa- anything is possible!!!!
I cant believe this baby is already 6 months old. These kids grow WAY too fast. This is what Quincy has been up to lately. . .
Well we don't really know what to consider home these days but since we lived in Utah for 6 of our married years together we will consider that home. Every time we visit it just feels like home so until another state is lucky to have us there long enough or until that 'feels like home' feeling goes away, I guess Utah is still our HOME SWEET HOME.
We had yet another fabulous trip home over the last few weeks. We are so lucky to have both of our families in Utah (at the moment) tho they may be spread about the state it is nice that they are all there. As I was looking through all our pictures I kept thinking, oh I loved that and ew I really loved that and that was so much fun - so this post is just going to be a bunch of pictures of us doing the things we love with the people we love the most. . .
love Aunts
(and Uncles too)
love hunting and fishing
It was my birthday on Saturday and my cute family made it such a fun day. We won't discuss how old I turned because I lost track a few years back anyway!!
Trev got up with the kids and when I decided to roll out of bed I came down to these BEAUTIFUL flowers and such a yummy breakfast. Kalem was so excited because he made me a cake and it was the cutest little cake you ever did see- Pink and white play dough mixed together with candles on top. I told him all I wanted from was for him to make me a delicious cake and he did not disappoint. After breakfast they sent me off to get a pedicure/manicure and I was such a happy girl. I got lots of phone calls from my family during my spa treatment and it was fun to talk to everyone - it made me even more excited for our trip home this week!!!!!!!!!!!!
Then we cruised over to the swimming pool for a couple hours, grabbed a bite to eat and did a bit of shopping. If only every Saturday of my life could be like this!! Thanks to my wonderful husband and two darling kiddos for making my birthday such a special one- I love love love you all!!
Today was one of those days I am sure Trev was thinking- ' I am glad I have a son'. The fam went golfing at a little course near our house. Kalem brought along his little plastic clubs and drug those around the entire day. 
We had such a fun day together! I love hanging out with my little family.
It was good fun!!!
Kalem enjoyed the train ride in with his friends Holland and Ethan (cutest cubbies fans EVER)
He loved the baseball park food especially the PeAnUtS and CoTToN CaNdY. Little Miss Quincy didn't love the experience as much as he did. Maybe next time
We have been looking forward to attending a game all summer. Everyone has been telling us how much fun they are, how the fans get all geeked up in the Cubs gear - it was fun to experience what everyone has been talking about and I loved singing Take Me Out To The Ball Game (I'm such a dork). Hopefully we will make it to another this summer and maybe next time they will WIN!!GOOOOO CUBS!!!!!
