I went to an Arcade Fire concert on Wednesday night and it was awesome! I went with Nate, Christian, Sean, Andrew Stott and Paul Stott and Christian’s parents were just there. I loved the show, they sound much better live than they do on album. The balance on the system was great and you could hear all the instuments, even though they had like ten insruments going at once. The funniest part of the night is when he forgot the lyrics for Neighborhood 3 (power out) and then went back to sing the chourus, it was great. I got a shirt so if you see me with an Arcade Fire shirt you’ll know where I got it. They had an opening band that sounded like great Stake Dance music called LCD Sound System…they were pretty cool in my opinion. I want to thank Nate for getting my ticket when he did because if he didn’t I wouldn’t have gone to this concert. I also have some pictures on my phone if you want to see them…
Bridget had a birthday party with four friends (Sarah, Sabina, McKinley and Regan) at Justice in Draper. They each received a gift bag with goodies and then had a complete make-over including hair, make-up and nails. They were really rockin’ by the time the gals were finished with them.

Brad and I took an early anniversary trip to San Juan, Puerto Rico where we boarded a Royal Caribbean ship and sailed for seven glorious days stopping at the ports of Oranjestad, Aruba, Willemstad, Curacao, Philipsburg, St. Maarten, and Charlotte Amalie, St. Thomas. Our adventures are captured in a series of videos. Above is the first installment: Cruising. Look for the island adventures in the near future. Enjoy.

Well-unless I told you already-I have finally broke the 100 barrier that was so hard to brake in the past, I did it in a tournament which is totally awesome! I shot a 99 at hoble creek, when I origionally thought that i shot a 100 but as i scrutinized my score card i noticed that my partner-who was a sophomore-added the scores up wrong and I actually shot a 99! I had the second best score in my group and was beat by a kid on PG who got third place in a long drive contest in St. George, he pretty much drove a green… I was disappointed though because my score didn’t count for the team and we took last again. The good news is that we are in fourth in Varsity which means that we can go to state! And if they do go to state, we all get to go follow them up to the course and that is going to awesome! I can’t wait for next week’s tourny so I can skip school again!
Dallen qualified for the American Fork High School Golf Team as a Freshman. Man was I a proud Daddy.
Excited for all the experience he’ll get in tournament settings. Glad he will find others to play with that he can learn from and compete against. Golf is a great builder of character. Fun to see him get excited about being part of a team.

Bridget was invited to join a competition soccer team this year. The team’s name is UC Storm, and it is their first year together as a team. They are UC11, division two, I believe, because we only travel around Utah County…and Midway; much to the parent’s delight. For being a brand new team, the girls have been doing well. This winter they will play indoor soccer so that they can be ready to challenge the teams again in the Spring. Bridget is one of two goalies and then plays various other positions. She is having fun.
