Sorry I have been slacking off in the blogger world lately! Hopefully I will get back on track here soon.

So last Wednesday, the night before Thanksgiving, Justin and I got to go see Coldplay in concert at Jobbing.com arena. It started at 7:30, but of course there was a few opening numbers so Coldplay didn't even get onstage until about 9:15. It was worth the wait, though. (Well, I think it was. The 2nd opening number was some weird DJ that played really loud, crazy, rave type music that lasted FFFOOOORREEEVVVEERR!!) Coldplay was awesome. They are lots of fun to watch in concert and they had some great numbers and a wonderful finale. After picking up Braxton and driving home we didn't end up getting back until about 1:00 in the morning. I remember days not so long ago when that was nothing, but I must be getting old because it sure took a toll on me the next day! It was fun though and really nice to spend time with Justin. We haven't been on a date in a long time so we needed one.

Coldplay doin their thang

Piano solo. Really beautiful.

The Finale. Wahoo! (They were little tiny paper butterflies flying all over the place.)

Thanksgiving day was good, but tiring. We ate dinner with my family at around noon, then just hung around for awhile and eventually joined my mother's side of the family at a church where we played volleyball for a long time. (well, everyone else played, but I was exhausted and not feeling well so I stuck with watching B-rax most of the time.) The weather was absolutely GORGEOUS this weekend. Rainy and cold and wonderful Holiday weather. It would be so awesome if Christmas could be like that! I can always hope, right?

We did have a little excitement before heading to the church. I didn't know Justin's keys were in the car and I locked it behind me. Yikes! Luckily, my handy mechanic of a brother, Jaron, had a handy-dandy set of tools for just such an occasion.

HOW MANY BOYS DOES IT TAKE TO GET KEYS OUT OF A LOCKED CAR????

In our case? 5!

My dad is on the other side guiding Justin with the wand thingy to unlock the door. It was pretty funny to watch them all! The keys were recovered fine and all was well.

And now its time for CHRISTMAS!!! WAHOO!!! I finally have some nice festive decorations I was able to put up this year, so our home looks all Christmas-y. YAY FOR THE HOLIDAYS!! Now if only the cold weather would come to stay, it would be perfect!
