The month that flew by

I've been a blog slacker lately (in looking at all of your blogs, and updating my own). I've just been really busy, I guess. But here's a few fun things that we did the last few weeks:

SOCCER

Xander had his last soccer game a couple of weeks ago, and his team won for a nice finish.

He was quite proud of his trophies that he got.

We met his team at a bowling alley for pizza and bowling.

Blair got over 100 for the first time he claims (and I barely got there phew!)

NATURAL HISTORY MUSEUM

We went to the Natural History museum for the 1st time since we've lived here. The boys loved it.

HIKING WITH DAD

The boys went to the old railroad tunnel trail down by Lake Mead to hike around.

Climbing on the rocks.

Cute boys.

Fun fun fun!

We got to go up to UT last weekend and see our family, because my little sister got married! Here's the whole family:

The siblings: Ben, Wend, Me, Ria, Kristin, Dan.

This weekend, our highlight was last night when Blair and I got to go to a U2 concert! I have always wanted to go to one, and it was AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME. It's been sold out ever since the 1st day that it went on sale, but the night before last, they released a bunch of tickets they still had- so I jumped on it! The stadium is less than a mile from our house, so we just walked over.

Happy us- but crappy camera phone.

No zooming in with the crappy camera phone either.

There's Bono!

That same screen that was up top & showed close-ups of people on stage, divided up and did this cool thing towards the end.

Great concert!

The funnies

Claire: Because I was trying to find something to play with

Claire 11/14 "Mom I can’t find any of my jammies, so should I bring you the sew kit so you can sew me some?"

Claire 9/13 after pulling a piece of tape off of something successfully, "I am a great job."

Claire 8/13 "One time a dog pooped on the grass."

Me, "Why are you telling me that?"

Claire 8/13 I walked in and exclaimed what a mess it was. "I didn't got that out," said Claire pointing at one little thing.

Claire 10/12 "Ehhhhh he he, ehhh he he."

Will 10/12 "Mom, could I miss school on Wednesday, because they're going to learn something really hard like minus?"

Claire 10/12 "You not funny Will."

Claire 10/12 (almost in tears with the saddest little voice because she wanted all of the toys) "Mommy, brothers not sharing a me."

Will 12/11 "I know something that's not a word: spit-buggar."

Claire 12/11 "Ha ha, fuh-ee (funny)"

Will 12/11 after he broke a plastic fork, "I would like to put it in recycling because that saves the world."

Will 11/11 as he rubs the carpet, "I like this house because it's hairier than the other one."

Will 9/11 "Mom, could you call my nickname 'shark' please?"

Will 9/11 in a prayer while Blair was away for a month, "Bless that we would ever see dad again, and if we drive there it wouldn't be too long."

Will 3/11 after I asked him how primary was, he said, "I was the 1st kid in class. I thought I was going to have to taught myself."

Will 3/11 "Mom, is today fast Sunday."

Me "What is fast Sunday Will?"

Will, "When we eat really fast."

Will 3/11 "Xander is saying mean things, like that I'm not the leader."

Blair told Will to go to the bathroom with him while we were out somewhere and he was doing the potty dance 3/11, "Hey I had to go to the bathroom too!"
