Saturday, February 26, 2011. Auditioned for a choir called Young Choral Artists. I mentioned this in my last post. The auditions went pretty well, although I couldnt tell how well they sang because they were so quiet and. Drowned them out, but the only one that mattered was the woman sitting at the piano who was making the selections for the choir and she could clearly hear them. I think the boys were pretty nervous once they got there because other. Of them for actually doing it! Que and just wonderful,.

The Shannon Family: March 2012

Friday, March 30, 2012. Flowers Blooming on campus at The University of Utah. Spring looks to have officially arrived here in the valley. We have all been so skeptical because Utah weather is unpredictable this time of year. However, after an extremely odd winter.very little snow. it seems like Mother Nature has just decided to give us all a break and actually allow us to experience a true Spring! Ian, Evan and Jorden. Mmmm, Ice Cream. As much as I hate this picture of me, I love it of the two of us :).

The Shannon Family: September 2011
http://vanessashannon.blogspot.com/2011_09_01_archive.html
Friday, September 9, 2011. Today I had the opportunity to go to Ian's school to watch an assembly about that day. It was very moving and sadly took an individual teacher setting it up because the administration didn't think it was necessary. And even worse, only the classes in Ian's ELP (gifted and talented) program were allowed to attend. The rest of the children in the school were kept in class. Evan's school didn't even mention it! Saturday, September 3, 2011. Best deal in town. Utah, United States.

The Shannon Family: August 2011

Sunday, August 28, 2011. So in other big news.we got a new-ish car. The van has been dying a slow death this year that was rapidly speeding up this summer. I was just praying that it would get me through the summer and it did. But, I had to get something more reliable. After a very painful 5 1/2 hours in the dealership, we ended up with this little SUV. Not exactly what I wanted (and not the greatest picture). My big 5th grader! Was actually excited to go back to school. Saturday, August 20, 2011. We fin...

The Shannon Family: Tap tap tap...is this thing on?
http://vanessashannon.blogspot.com/2013/06/tap-tap-tapis-this-thing-on.html
Saturday, June 1, 2013. Tap tap tap.is this thing on? Yeah yeah.I know. Where the heck have we been? Well, I could tell you every depressing detail of the past 9 months but if I did that, it would be days before I got anything posted. So in lieu of spilling my guts and making excuses, I will just try to catch up as quickly as I can. The peril's of working retail during Christmas. Guess I will be going for that Masters Degree soon! Goodbye to our teeny tiny, cinder block student apartments. Halloween tric...

Saturday, March 19, 2011. I feel like I have really neglected my blogging recently, probably because I have! I always have good intentions but life just has a way of taking over sometimes. Truthfully, there haven't been too many big events to post about so for now I will just give a little update and be done with it. Spring break officially started for me after my last class on Thursday. I have really been looking forward. Well Ian is growing up so fast! He is 10 going on 16 and it drives me a little nut...

Wednesday, November 2, 2011. Look at my sweet, fresh faced little Cub Scout.just starting out. I swear I took this picture just yesterday. But no.sadly, it was 4 years ago and tonight Ian graduated from Cub Scouts. He received his Arrow of Light award. Look at what a difference 4 years makes! I am so proud of him. Here is the whole den. I love that he spent his entire Cub Scouts with just about all of these boys. It's so nice for kids to have something constant like this to remember. Proud Mom and son :).

Tuesday, April 24, 2012. My BFF Shannon and her kids came to the park for Evan and Addison bday. We love them like family :). He enjoys playing outside, even with the little kids. He is so good with the younger kids in our apartment. He loves attention from mom. He has a humongous appetite right now. He is in the 4th grade and struggles with doing his homework. He would much rather be outside playing. We love him and his sense of humor! But, she finally relaxed and enjoyed every minute of it! I am always...

Saturday, June 25, 2011. Red Butte Gardens.again. Well, I broke down and bought a yearly membership to Red Butte Gardens. So you will probably see lots of pictures posted from visits there this summer. I took the kids up there a couple of days ago with lunch. It was a good time.now that I have a new camera, I'm going to have to go back and take some better pics. These were taken with my dear old iPhone. check out the view of the valley from up there. Breathtaking! I told you about my poor camera. But tha...
