No Words

My heart goes out to the friends and most of all the family of the Powell family.
I'm not sure how someone can be so horrible, but apparently its possible.
Check this link out, and if you're not familiar with the story, there is a good timeline along the right side, a little ways down.
Please add this family (those that are left) to your prayers today, tomorrow, etc...

Girls Night Out!

Thanks Corrie Lockhart for being born, 25 years ago, so that we could party all week! Birthday Extravaganza Part II was so great! We went to Macaroni Grill (which was actually just ok - and our waiter may have been 14, ok maybe 17...) and then to THE DESERT STAR! Now playing at the Desert Star is CSI: Provo, Decaffeinated DNA. I'm not going to lie, based on the title, I was a little bit nervous about it, but it ended being amazing!!! It was so incredible funny! If you haven't been, the Desert Star does comedy musicals. Sometimes parodies of other shows, sometimes just funny parodies of Mormon/BYU/Utah culture. They are all so well done and they are so talented! I will for sure be going again.
The other part of the excitement of the night, was meeting Nick Whitaker, aka Gil Grimace (from the show), aka Joseph Smith!! (He played the young Joseph Smith from the Joseph Smith movie.)  Here are the pictures we took with him, after Jessica asked: "are you Joseph Smith?" (Sorry about the red eye, I'm just not motivated enough to fix it right now...)




We were also lucky enough to get a video of the occasion ;)


Confession: due to the crush all seven of us have on him after seeing the show, we may have done some serious Google and Facebook stalking after the show. The minute that becomes a marketable skill, I will be rich!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY CORRIE!!
