Therapy in Colorado

Photobucket

The night we had been waiting for had finally come and it did not disappoint!! AMAZING. He is just AMAZING. He even played 'Comfortable' a song he RARELY plays. It's an old one and one of my favs. I was in heaven. What was also amazing was our seats were 4th row right smack dab in front of his microphone. The exact place we were for his Continuum tour in SLC. Here is a taste of our night with JOHN.

After STUFFING ourselves at the Cheesecake Factory and right before Hayley and I watched Madison go DOWN hard on her back in the parking lot as she was trying to scrape snow off the windows. The parking lot was nothing but snow, dirt and slush!!! Good thing we just took 2 hours getting ready! Hay and I stopped breathing we were laughing so hard.

During the concert John announced that ALL roads were closed due to the BLIZZARD that was going on out side. Yea we were going to get snowed in with John and he would just play through the night!! Not...we went out and soon were STUCK in this!!

Being in the most insane snowstorm I have ever witnessed, I was thankful our driver was taking things so seriously.
Andee I LOVE you!!!

Sitting on a closed freeway gets boring. We joined in on a freeway snow ball fight. This man got out of his car and threw one straight through my window past me and smacked Carly! SOO funny.

Hayley looked smokin in her new shoes but they weren't so weather friendly. Thanks to these babies we paid for valet parking.

By the end of the concert we believed we had a new convert. Carly stated it was one of the funnest nights of her life. I was sad it was over. Till next time.

MERCH...

John tweeted this picture after we were back cozy in our beds. Lucky for them the roads opened back up in the EARLY morning hours and they headed for California.

I had four days of laughing till I was sick, singing in the car, eating paninis, staying up till 3 am, eating mini bundt cakes and shopping. And I got to do it with 4 of my favorite people on earth. My sistas and my sista from anotha motha.
I LOVE YOU ALL...LET'S GET PLANNING OUR NEXT ADVENTURE!!

NOTICE: I did not post the list. ;)

Love Story sung by Sloane Background Bubbles blown by Beaux....

Pupils dilated and looking sassy.

Went for our yearly eye exam. Crazy to think they started when Indi was just four. I would have never thought I would have kids, little kids that would need glasses. Greg and I have perfect eyes. Just recently we were given a note from Beaux's preschool telling us she has an astigmatism. I figured we would for sure be 3 for 3 but today the doc said she does have one, but it is so slight it doesn't need to be treated. Yeah! So for now we are just 2 for 3. Indi's eyes have improved a ton and the doctor said her brain is no longer picking one eye as a favorite. He said she could probably pass a driver's test with her bad eye's vision. He also told us how her brain/eyes have reacted to her glasses in a really rare way. So rare, Greg nor I can understand it.
Sloane's brain decided it wants to have a favorite eye to see out of. So hopefully with her new lenses we can kick her brain into looking through both again or we will do fun stuff like patching her brain's favorite eye. That will be an interesting experience with Sloaney. :) Anyway that is our eye update. Beaux tried to be helpful by whispering loudly to Sloane, "A CAR!" when she couldn't see the picture the doctor was holding up. So funny. What else...Sloane threw a ROYAL, CRAZY, take 3 people to hold her down fit when it was time for the eye drops to dilate her eyes. I was thinking how Beaux was being scared to death and anticipating her flip out. But...she hopped off her chair and walked over to get her drops with a face like, "I'm not going to embarrass myself like my big sister just did over some dumb eye drops!" Her personality is starting to keep us entertained 24/7.

Hayley got a taste of the frosting and the rest was history.....

She got her first taste and couldn't help herself...











We found her hiding in the corner...
you can see the shock and embarrassment on her face.

Then she just let loose.


Then she decided to get Carly in on the action.






LOVE this picture. Carly in the background kills me.



Next victim was Madison.

I was stupid to dare stay so close, so I turned into Madison's prey.


Then I got mom.

And she got me.

Then Madison decided to bring cheesecake into the equation. Usually when Madison and I get going...it's not pretty. It involved bruises and my right nostril stuffed full of cheesecake.
The two handfuls of cheesecake on our faces came from the one you can see on the counter.

Maddy thought it still looked yummy.

Everyone came in saying, "Your bleeding, your bleeding!"
Nope...just strawberries.

Mom left her frosting on for a while, she swore it was working as a fabulous mask and was firming up her skin. Nicole, you might want to consider this as a service.

This bruise was immediately after the fight. It is now the scariest purple bruise!
Good times.

I would NEVER guess my dad would be so into a show about dancing. But this year he was GLUED to Dancing with the Stars. Donny is an old friend of my dads. He was actually a roadie for the Osmonds years ago and was able to travel around the world with them. I am not sure who looks more proud in this picture...my dad was SO excited when he won.
Check out my dad's blog to get the whole story.
(It's on my blog list under Dad.)
CONGRATULATIONS DONNY!
