TWILIGHT

I hope you enjoy this awesome piano arrangement River Flows in you by Yiruma, AKA Edward's Lullaby; I know I can't get enough. It is now just after ten o'clock p.m. on Thursday night and the first showing of Twilight will be starting shortly. All I can think about right now is poor Marie (one of my YW) and hoping she can stay up through the whole showing, she's really been worried about that. I know she's been prepping for this for awhile now :). I can't see it until Abbi has finished the book. I'm kinda wishing I didn't make that promise now, I may have to wait another week :( Hopefully Hollywood hasn't embellished the romantic scenes too much so she can see it. Marie, you better stay awake so I can find out! LOL.

Congrats Abbi!

Abbi completed level one in her Suzuki training. It took her just over a year, which is pretty good. We held a concert for her in our home so she could show off what she has learned to her family. She played thirty pages of memorized songs! She did great!

We want to thank the whole Fam for supporting her.

It really means a lot.

I apologize, the sound is a little scratchy :(

BACK IN BLACK

This was taken before the game started. Ty was in his usual "game home"
underneath the bleachers.

Game Highlights:

The kids looked forward to this one.
We wore black.

It was an exciting game.

The girls rushed the field (safely) with Dad and got some Utah garb.

UTAH WON!

"Grease is the Word"

Blaine and I had a blast dressing up this year as "Danny and Sandy" from Grease. Let me tell you, Halloween is so much better when the whole family dresses up. I only wish we could have found a better wig for Blaine. I've got to hand it to him for being such a good sport. I'm sure he's always secretly wanted a "T-Bird" jacket ;)

Halloween was great. We had the day off from school so we enjoyed parties with friends, baking cookies, the annual tri-ward dinner and trunk-or-treat, and of course good old door to door trick-or-treating. We finished off the night with carmel apples, hot chocolate and a cozy backyard fire.

Abbi won most exceptional costume as the Bride of Frankenstein.

Karli won most marvelous as a "Good" witch.

Ty won most fascinating as a Power Ranger. Fun, fun.
