bon iver

we had a great night watching bon iver (at the beautiful long center).
for you non hipsters you pronounce it with an /E/ and not and /I/
no, i am not a hipster, just know how to say it bc jord always researches
musical things to make sure he says them correctly. he does it with lyrics too :)
you should check him out on itunes. it is amazing all the sounds they create.
there are 9 members of the band ranging from a huge bass sax to a trumpet, violin, 2 drum sets.....
it was really awesome!
thanks, hun for a great date!
(and thanks to britt and p for watching the girls)

the opening musician was kathleen edwards. she had a rad voice, check her too.

happy birthday iris!

iris turned one last week and we celebrated at our house since the blantons are busy

making their house a home.
with a lot of help from lisa(she gave us ideas and goodies for the party that she used at her daughters 1st bday), britt made a bright and sunny "you are my sunshine" party for iris. it was a lot of fun!

Mmm, cake and marshmallows

rice krispie cake!

we made playdough as party favors. (that sweet flower was needle pointed by my nanny).

evie was tired(the party was in the evening) and payton was too busy to even get a pic of.


happy birthday sweet iris, we love you and all the joy you bring our whole family!
