Family Pictures 2012

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

We did these ourselves, which means tri-pod in the wind...but we got a few good pictures between tantrums, and run-ins with cactus:)  Oh the joy of taking pictures with small children.

All grown up!


Allie's first day of 1st grade...I know it's cliche' to say this, but OH how the time sure does fly!  She is a sweet girl.

Star Struck

 
 

I got to spend the afternoon with one of my favorite authors-Brandon Mull.  (Author of Fablehaven series, Candy Shop Wars series and the Beyonder's Series) My youngest brother Matt auditioned to be in the up-coming book-trailer film for Brandon's new book in the Candy Shop Wars and got the lead part as "Nate".  (He's the cute kid in the blue shirt.)  I went to Salt Lake to see him film one of the scenes and Brandon showed up to hang out.  It was so great!
So I have always considered myself someone who would never get star-struck...because I am so cool,calm,collected...I would NEVER act like an idiot around a famous person.  Than I met Brandon Mull, and as hard as I tried to act cool...I acted like an idiot.  There are a few rules in meeting a famous person.  You don't let them know: You have read ALL of their books and that you know ALL of the names of their characters. Oh well, I'm sure he was flattered that a 28 year old woman was totally nuts over his...um...children's books.:)
