So much stuff.

I have come to realize that the main problem with not blogging very often is that, when I finally find the time to blog, I have so many things to choose from, and I just end up writing about all of them and then calling it a "random" post. I apologize if that gets annoying.

Well, anyway, here's another random post.

Kennedy broke her first heart.  She told a boy in her class (Tripp) that she no longer had a crush on him. She  felt REALLY bad for making him cry.

Poor Tripp. Words of advice: Get used to heartbreak. It is a part of life (even at 8 years old, apparently). Also- while crying is a natural reaction to heartbreak, try to not cry in front of your guy friends. They will most likely make fun of you.

These two started preschool. PRESCHOOL. As in, they're 4 years old. FOUR. Ugh. And I'm going to continue to add emphasis by way of repetition and capitalization. CAPITALIZATION.
(btw- I cannot look at this picture without wanting to squeeze them both and kiss them from head to toe. I just love them.)

Kennedy came to visit me at work, and we went to lunch at City Creek. Idn't she a cutie? (Yes, the "idn't" is intentional.)

I let Kennedy bring a friend with us to the fair. They had so much fun.

Mmmmm. Apples. APPLES.

And on our way walking out of the fair, she had a "Kennedyism":

Kennedy: Casey, will you give me a ride on your shoulders?
Casey: Sorry, Kennedy- not tonight, since I can't give both you and your friend a ride.
Kennedy: Oh. Is it because you haven't learned to duplicate yourself, yet?

Man, she's funny. FUNNY.

My friends (most of them) are Ute fans.  Ute fans assemble before games.  So naturally, as Ute fans, we assembled with the lot of them and got each other pumped up for the game....

Which we didn't have tickets to.

So when it was game time, we said goodbye to our ticket-holding friends, and the rest of us went and watched it on a nice, big TV, with instant re-plays, close-ups, and food.  (I'm trying to tell myself it was better than seeing it in person.)

In other news, Kennedy is starting baseball! We'll see if she actually plays or if, instead, she performs handstands and cartwheels on the field, like her dad used to. Either way, at least she gets a cool baseball cap out of it. A BASEBALL CAP.
