Concert fun with Hadley.

Last week, I won tickets to see Hot Chelle Rae in concert here in SLC. Hadley loves them, and since I used him to win the tickets...I took him to the concert tonight. (yes, tonight! I am determined to stay caught up on blogging...go me!)


Waiting for the concert to start.








The opening act was a band from Austin, TX called Electric Touch. They were actually pretty good.


They set up a table about 10ft from us and talked with, took pics with and signed autographs for fans for a good 45 minutes after their set. As one of the guitar players walked by, Hadley mustered all his courage and tapped him on the arm and told him 'good job'. The guy actually stopped and talked to Hadley for a few minutes. He ended up giving him a guitar pick and the whole band signed a cd for Hadley...for an 11yr old who has been BEGGING me for guitar lessons, this was pretty cool!

I think they have won a fan for life in Hadley by being so great with him tonight!





This is Hadley with Christopher, the guitar player he talked to.







Hadley with the whole band.








The main act, Hot Chelle Rae.





Hadley singing along with Tonight Tonight.









The lead singer singing with the girls who won the grand prize drawing from the radio station...we had our fingers crossed we would win but it didn't happen.










We had SO much fun! The look on Hadley's face when Hot Chelle Rae came out and started singing his favorite song...absolutely priceless!! I had been on the fence about taking him since it was a school night, but watching him the whole night(he never stopped smiling), I am so glad I did!

Devin's big day

Well, the day finally came. Devin was baptized this morning...I know, I'm blogging about something the DAY it happened! I am on a roll!























This is Devin's group of friends from our neighborhood. I love these kids! I can't wait to have a similar picture in 11yrs with all of them about to go on missions!:) (actually, I can wait...stop growing up already kids!!)
LtoR: Tyler, Devin, Nate, Nate & Brigham









It was a great day. A big thanks to all the family and friends that came to support Devin in his big day, it means a lot to us.
