Cy singing...I mean Dane

For the past several weeks Cy insists on being called Dane (my little brother's name), though occasionally he will put on a tie and say he is Grandpa Tom or Papa Lee.  He feels so powerful and cool as you can see in this video where his voice deepens as he gets into character.  He takes this very seriously and if we laugh at him he gets very frustrated so we just have to go along with it.

"Hello!" Book of Mormon on Broadway

There were most certainly a couple songs in this musical I wasn't comfortable with, but as a whole I found it to be very entertaining and funny.  It's most definitely not for kids or the faint at heart (or those who refuse to see rated R movies), but it definitely was not as humiliating or offensive towards Mormons as it could have been.  My thoughts are that Mormons should use this as an opportunity to share what we really believe in and to educate our children on the realities which aren't always positive about our faith and its history.  

Old Stomping Grounds

Mike and I decided a trip was overdue since we haven't traveled since last summer.  We decided to visit our old friends and family in New York this past weekend since May is one of my favorite months there.  Unfortunately we experienced some pretty terrible weather, but had a great time with everyone enjoying great restaurants shopping and the latest hit on Broadway "The Book of Mormon", which (minus a couple songs I didn't like) was hilarious.

I could put a really great subtitle here about how Rachel is our more traditional sister wife like Nicolette in Big Love, but the truth is that she was on her way to a pioneer trek event.

Mother's Day 2011

This is my favorite Mother's Day to date...I now have 3 wonderful children and a home much more comfortable than our little place in New York.  I'm so blessed (or just lucky) to have a great husband and 3 healthy kids who I love dearly.  Happy Mother's Day to all the mothers, aunts, friends and sisters who take such good care and show so much love to mine and their own!
