NO DOUBT!!!

Last night was the Paramore/No Doubt concert and it was amazing! I had so much fun! Paramore was awesome!

No Doubt was so awesome! I loved the whole thing. Their set was cool, their clothes, all the songs they played... It reminded me why I was so obsessed in high school!

Gwen was amazing! She doesn't look like she has had 2 kids.

Her she is doing her traditional pushups during Just a Girl! I am glad I got a picture of that!

Then my favorite part of all, which is probably just my favorite part now that I am a Mom. She asked the crowd if we could sing Happy Birthday to Kingston and then she brought him up on stage! I love that even though she is so successful and famous she still puts her family first and had her family there with her! I loved it!

It was by far my favorite concert ever! I loved it!

Fun stuff!

We have taken some fun pictures the last week that I wanted to post. This bath is from tonight. We wanted to make sure we had a good picture of the boys 'bathtub' before we move and they have a real one! They sure don't mind it though.

Last night we went to a quadruple birthday party! The kids all got those cute little cupcake icecream cones and Brock was in heaven!

I think his face says it all!

At the beginning of the week we went to the Street's garage and the boys were in heaven! They have this sweet truck and these two pocket bikes. I think they both look pretty studly on the yellow one!

Doran looks like he was born to do this.

The picture below Doran was saying 'smile!'. I think he looks so wierd in it! He does too. As soon as he has me take his picture he asks to see it. When he saw this one his smile dropped and he just stared at it. I think he was trying to figure out why he looked so wierd.

This means trouble! Luckily he is still a little too chicken to jump down so he just lowers himself back in. Another bonus of our new house: Brock will finally have his own room! Side note: So will Seth and I!!!

There are so many cute stories that happen every day. I get so mad that I don't get them down right away. Brock is really starting to talk. If you ask him something he will answer uh-huh or NO! He also has learned to call me Coley in addition to Mommy. Doran is getting funnier and funnier. He has been crying off and on yesterday and today because he wants a Dale Earnhart Jr. car. He keeps saying, "I want to go to the store and get Jr.!" It is so funny. How many 2 year olds like NASCAR? He also was crying tonight saying, "I want to go to church tonight! I want nursery." Hopefully Brock will like it that much in July! One last cute Doran story. The other day Jen was ready to go to work and she had on a dress and when Doran saw her he said, "Jen are you going to church?" They are so fun!

Pictures of our house

Saturday we basically had a family reunion at our house. We had family meet us there so they could see it and I took pictures so I could let all our family everywhere else see it.

Above is the view from the front door. The door to the right that you can see is the room in the picture below. It is an office/sitting room. Seth took a poll from everybody to see what they thought: office or formal living room. Office is winning 9-7 so far but I think that is because of the title formal living room. If you say a sitting room (which would be furnished with a nice couch, a chair, and maybe a little end table) it may change a few votes. The room is a little to small for a formal living room.

Below is a half bath that is to the left in the entry area.

Below is the master bedroom.

Family room and dining room.

Kitchen...

Doran...

Fireplace which is in the family room.

Here is the hallway which is before the family room from the entry way. The door on the left is an entrance to the kitchen and the door to the right is the laundry room.

Laundry room.

Doran has already decided which room is his and which is Brock's. He told Brock that he gets the purple room. The door Abby is walking into is a jack and jill bathroom, or in this case, a jack and jack!

And the room Doran chose for himself is the room with the ball trim. He calls it his room and kept showing everyone 'Doran's room'. This picture was taken from his entrance to the jack and jack bathroom.

Here is their jack and jack bathroom.

The staircase to the upstairs.

The guest room in the upstairs.

The bathroom upstairs.

The bonus room in the upstairs. This is what is above the garage. There is also an unfinished basement that I didn't take any pictures of, I meant to... but I forgot. So that is all for now. We can close as soon as June 2nd and we are so excited!

Under contract

We are under contract on a house! In a July we will have been looking for 4 years! So needless to say I am glad we found one! Here are a couple exterior shots, next time we go inside I will post more!

Thanksgiving Point

Doran is obsessed with the dinosaur museum so we decided to get a Thanksgiving Point pass a few weeks ago. We go to the dinosaur museum atleast 3 times a week. Doran loves this shark!

He calls it Bruce, which is the sharks name in Finding Nemo. He loves it.

We also recently discovered the gardens. I love it with all the beautiful tulips! The kids love it too since there is so much cool stuff.

The biggest man made waterfalls in the Northern Hemisphere... sweet!

All of the kids loved feeding the fish. Next time I know to bring lots of quarters because those fish are big and hungry!!!

Beginners luck

Doran played his first game ever last night and guess what.... HE WON! He loved it and had so much fun. He definately didn't get it at all but he still loved it!

WICKED!!!

My Mom and Papa K took Amanda, Mollie, Jen, and I to Wicked last night. It was AWESOME! I have never been to a play before so I was shocked at how cool it was. The stage kept changing, the background would change, Elphaba and her monkeys could fly, and most of all their voices are amazing live! I have been listening to the soundtrack all week to get prepared and I kept thinking they couldn't hold a candle to the people on the soundtracks voices, but they did! Maybe even better!

I also read the book a few days before the play so I could know the story, and I feel a little dark saying this, but I loved it! So I was worried they weren't going to do Elphaba justice and I wouldn't like the play, but they did do her justice! She was just as interesting of a character. I even liked all the changes they made from book to play. I loved Glinda and thought her character was so funny.

I want to go again with Seth so bad! I am now addicted to it. I looked up tickets and for crappy seats it is $250! Thanks so much Mom and Papa K!
