Sarah and friends!!

I am so glad that Sarah is making such wonderful friends at BYU and having so much fun with them.  Here is Sarah at a football game with some and on a Sunday walk with girls on her floor taking lots of silly, fun pictures.  It makes me so happy to wake up in the morning and see pictures on facebook of Sarah or see a blog entry or a note from her.  Nothing makes me happier or is  better start to my day!!  Love you Sarah!!  I am so proud of you and all of the wonderful things you are doing!!

So You Think You Can Dance!!!!!

Amy LOVES So You Think You Can Dance with every fiber of her being!!  I mean, she LOVES it!!  She devours every episode, she has viewing parties and LOVES these dancers!!  She was beyone thrilled when the tour this year came to George Mason and they were performing on a Saturday night and she had it all planned out to stay late and try to meet the starts and get pictures with them!!  She was so thrilled when we got her a ticket for her birthday and Michael got one for his birthday!!  She was very worried when she came down with pneumonia the week of the tour but the medicine kicked in and she was able to go.  She did not want to be known on the tour as "the girl who got all of the dancers sick!!"  She saved her birthday money and purchased a big poster and a much beloved t-shirt!!  There are 50 note cards put up all over the laundry room to help remind me to NOT EVER PUT HER SHIRT IN THE DRYER PLEASE!!!!  Amy is a passionate girl and loves things very much!!  I love you Amy!!

Choir Back to School Ice Cream Social

The Choir back to school ice cream social is always such a fun event.  It was really strange for me to not have Sarah there, it was the first choir event without my Sarah.  I missed her.  I am excited for this year for Jenn, she has some really cute friends in choir and it will be a great year for her, Amy is the pro now and looked up to, she is an upper classman now!!  She will have such a great year.  I love choir and love to be involved where my girls are and with their friends, so much fun!!

Rise and Shout!! The Cougars are out!!

I love seeing all these great pictures of Sarah's first BYU football game played against the U.  Too bad it was a blow out and the scoreboard was obviously at the beginning of the game!!  Sarah still had such a fun time and met with her friends before the game to make their faces up and get ready for the game together.  I am so glad that she is making such wonderful friends and having such a great time!!  I love you so much Sarah!!

Trip to Old Town!! We love it!!

Old Town has become our family's favorite place to go to for a fun day trip, we just LOVE it!! We have our favorite shops we like to visit, the Christmas store for me, the penny candy store for the kids, and we love to walk around the water front and visit the funky Torpeda factory and then we always go to the same Pizza place for lunch.  We always laugh about Tom having his "wild bachelor party" in Old town when they went for pizza and then went for ice cream after, those were wild times!!  When there were only a few days before Sarah was leaving for college I asked her where she would like to go for the day and she wanted to go to Old Town, even though we had just gone over spring break.  We went and had a great time as usual.  These memories mean SO much to me!!  These simple silly memories with the girls are everything to me, how I adore them!!
