On New Years Day, my parents and I took Reagan to see a movie ... we met Camille and Makenna at the theater to see Madagascar 2, but it was sold out. We settled for Bedtime Stories instead, a funny movie, but a little over Reagan's head. Before the movie, I took the following pictures of Reagan. I couldn't decide on just 1 or 2 pics, so I posted all 3 :)
On Friday night, John and I left the girls with my parents and we went out with Natalie and Gavin Harris. Natalie and I have been friends since middle school ... we figured we've now been friends for about 20 years, so she's my closest, oldest friend! We were roommates in college, up until she married her (jr.) high school sweetheart, Gavin.
We tried a few restaurants that were closed for the holiday, then ended up at the Gateway. We had dinner at SkyBox.
Whenever we go out with Gavin and Natalie, we always have a wonderful time, laughing, talking, and catching up.
On Friday, we met Brett, Camille, and Samantha at one of their favorite sushi restaurants ... the little girl sitting next to us asked Reagan if she could play with her, so she kept her busy while we talked. This girl was only about 6 or 7 and already had pink highlighted hair!
Here's my cute niece Samantha, giving one of her funny, teethy grins :)
On Friday afternoon, John and I treated ourselves to massages by the best masseuse in Utah, my good friend Annie. Oh how wonderful it was! Thanks Annie!!! That evening, we threw the kids in the car and headed to Herriman to watch the Sugar Bowl with our friends Autumn and Chad. My team, the University of Utah, was playing Alabama in the Sugar Bowl which was held in New Orleans, so it was a fun game to watch!
Here's Xander (who just turned 1) and his dad Chad
Here's Avery, checking out their 2 1/2 year old English Mastiff, Kooter - what a beautiful, mind-mannered dog
Autumn's parents, Ron and Terri were there watching the game too ... it was a great game and the Utes won, making them 13-0, undefeated!!!
All the boys: Ron, Dallas, Xander, Kooter, Chad and John
I tried to get a picture of Dallas and Reagan, but she was being stubborn, so we had Dallas sneak up behind her ... Reagan was a bit suspicious!
After the game, we put Avery and Xander to bed, then broke out the Guitar Hero Rockband on Playstation. Chad is amazing and can play perfectly, even on the HARD setting. We were all struggling to finish a song on the EASY setting! It was Autumn's first time playing it and we were all having so much fun. I was singing ("Learn to Fly" by the Foo Fighters), John and Chad were on bass and guitar, and Autumn was on the drums.
Reagan took a late nap in the car on the way to their house, so she was wired all night. She was a good sport, playing by herself while we played Rockband.
Kooter and Autumn ... I feel bad this is the only picture I'm posting of Autumn, but the rest were random candid shots with the kids that didn't turn out great. I took lots of great pics of her when she came to NY over Labor Day weekend.
