Baby Joseph in the Spotlight

Joseph got his first professional pictures today. He was such a little ham: smiling and laughing, but for an hour afterward, he refused to even smile. Guess he was just "smiled-out!"

Pioneer short story

I posted a pioneer story on my short stories blog. I'm entering it into a contest sponsored by the Mormon Channel and would appreciate feedback!

Ben and I saw Jill Stevenson preform last night at the Soiled Dove and it was so good. I went to High School with Jill and she's so talented.

1/2 way through the concert, Ben turned and told me, "you should see about performing here," and my friend Allison agreed though I protested. Later, my other friend Stephanie came to say "hi" and told me, "the next concert I come to is yours."

The thought of getting a band together (Ben's brothers and my brother and me) is terrifying but also exciting. It has me contemplating...

BTY Jill's website is www.jillstevenson.com and you can hear her music for free. She's amazing.

Great-Grandma Susi was here this weekend and she took us to the Denver Children's Museum. What a neat place! Benjamin loved the huge Train room (of course), Chance's eyes lit up about the Fire Truck and Joseph loved lounging on a lily pad in the Baby's Room.













We played until everyone was so woren-out, even Mom and Dad needed a nap.
