Reed's Music Program

Tonight we went to Reed's music program at school.  The theme was science camp.  Mrs. Duty always does such a great job with the programs and this was one of my favorites.  Reed came out in his lab coat- here is my little cutie with his fake smile plastered on.  He is so much like his daddy in this respect- not much of a singer/performer- he'd just rather do something else. :)

His big part was in the first song- he was one of the dry ice guys.  ( When the curtain opened, Hudson saw him and said in a rather non-quiet voice "There's Reed... Doin' some science."  Oh good grief.) Janna knew Reed would like this part in the program- and he did. The dry ice was pretty cool. 



The rest of the program was also very cute (with an almost constant commentary from Hudson.  The whole school had seen the program earlier in the day, so we heard how he had already seen this part, yadda, yadda. I shushed him approximately every 2 minutes for the rest of the show.)

We had a fun night- so proud of my boy!

Mexico

Brian and I got back last night from a great vacation in Mexico.  We had 5 wonderful days of relaxing on the beach, hanging out by the pool, visiting Mayan ruins, deep sea fishing (Brian, not me) and just general relaxation.  I loved it that our biggest decisions usually involved which restaurant to eat at. :). We had such a great time reconnecting - lots of laughing and enjoying each other.  I am so thankful that after 11 years of marriage and 17 years together we still enjoy each other's company and are truly still in love.  Brian works very hard and has to handle a lot on a day to day basis.  I don't think he realizes how much of the stress gets to him.  On a normal day, he makes me laugh, but when I can get him away from work and relaxed, he quickly reverts to a silly/super funny guy and I love it. It was such a great getaway and makes me look forward to the next one. 

However, I did not look forward to coming back to 30 degree weather and snow.  I miss my flip flops already. 😊
