Recent Events

This weekend, Dusty and I decided to get away and went to Cedar City for the Shakespeare Festival. I am kindof a theater "snob", so that's one of the only places locally I like to go. He had tickets for A Midsummer Night's Dream on Friday afternoon, and once we got there we purchased tickets for Romeo and Juliet (one of my favorite Shakespeare plays). They were both good, but we really loved Romeo and Juliet.
Saturday we decided we weren't ready to head home so we purchased tickets for Noises Off (it turned out to be an expensive trip!). Neither of us had seen this play before, and it was hilarious!! I am so glad we decided to go. Definitely the best of the weekend. I am very thankful that my husband will humor my love of the theater and take me ever year!

Jack is getting baptized on Saturday. As some of you know, he has waited over a year for this and he seems pretty excited. Maybe he's just more excited to get it over with - I don't know. But, I am supporting him in this decision and I am proud of him for making his own decisions.

And of course we have seen too many movies this summer. We've seen Judy Moody and the NOT Bummer Summer, Cars 2, Monte Carlo, Green Lantern, Kung Fu Panda 2, and Mr. Popper's Penguins. The kids also went to X-Men and Winnie the Pooh with grandparents. I think the kids liked Mr. Poppers Penguins the best - and I thought it was pretty cute myself. Dusty and I have also been to movies on our own, but maybe I won't share which ones lol. But we did see Harry Potter on Thursday. Our good friends got us tickets to an early showing! It was awesome walking out of the theater at 11:30pm looking at all the people waiting for the midnight showing.

That is about it for now. Hope you're all having a fun summer.
