The promised news

Ok, so last time we mentioned the possibility of building a house and I guess it's official, we're going to do it. We've picked out all of our options and colors and gidgets and gadgets galore. Right now we hear that the builders are pulling the permits to start building and we'll be good to go!

As for what we've been up to since we posted last (yes I realize it was almost a month ago and I am not so good at keeping it up to date) we had a wedding in the family, Brig and Stephanie got married at long last. Way to go rookies!!! I came to the reception completely unprepared to get payback on Brigon's car, and apparently my mother-in-law doesn't wear bright red wet-n-wild lipstick so I had nothing to work my craft with. I guess somebody on Stephanie's side of the family got her car to some degree, but I missed out. That doesn't mean I can't vandalize his clown car anyway, we'll just pretend they were JUST MARRIED!!!

We got a couple of good pictures of Kaleb in his little tuxedo thinking he was hot stuff. All his cousins looked really good in their tuxes. Here is a picture of Kaleb in his.


Anyway, it was fun and a good time was had by all.

A few nights later Kaleb and I went to a concert over at Thanksgiving Point. It was a band called Secondhand Serenade. They are pretty good and have some decent songs. Kaleb won the tickets when some radio station people were at a model home we happened to be signing papers at. They made sure he "won" on their wheel of prizes and he got to choose whatever he wanted. Well, he wanted those tickets and everytime we tried to get him to take something else he refused, so I told him I'd take him to the concert.

Here is a video from the band in case you don't know who they are.



Kaleb had a blast, he was mesmerized as always when we go to concerts. After the concert was done, the singer came straight out to say hi to Kaleb, it was pretty cool that he took time out after the concert to wade through all the screaming teenage girls to talk to a 3-year-old. He told Kaleb that he had a 2 year old and that Kaleb could drum for his band when he gets a little older. So of course Kaleb thought he was pretty cool once again. Then we went home and it was time for a 3-year-old to go to bed. But here is a picture of us telling mommy goodbye as we headed out to the concert.


And don't ask what THIS face is about, but I thought it was kind of funny.



And with that, we're done for now. Oh yeah, and I started a new job with Applegate HomeCare and Hospice. Later!

Long time no type.

So as you can all see, we are not good at the world-wide-inter-web-nets blogging thingy...and I'm ok with that. However, we do have a few interesting things going on as of late. We are a bit tired of living in the armpit of American Fork and thus have decided to get OUT! The house hunt is on and we've put a couple of offers out there in the past few weeks, but we think we just might build a house so we have submitted an offer to build and we should know this next week if that is going to happen for us. I don't want to get into the details too much in case it doesn't work out, but we're pretty confident it will.


Anyway, we recently took Kaleb to get some 3-year-old pictures taken and have the results back, so I'll post a few of them below.

This is laughing Kaleb.




This is serious Kaleb.




This is close-up Kaleb.



This is chillin' Kaleb.



And last but not least, This is muscles Kaleb.




Alright, thats enough for now. Hopefully, we will get better at updating things on here, and hopefully we have a good update this next week!

Let the blog begin!

Hi! We're the Tracy's. I think it is a requirement that when you start a blog, you proclaim that you are new at this, so here it is. We're new at this, so take it easy on us.

A little about us, we've been married for almost 10 YEARS, whoa. We currently live in American Fork, but we're looking to purchase a house a little farther north along the Wasatch front. We have a 3-year-old named Kaleb. He's a somewhat typical 3-year-old except for his lifelong devotion to music. Yes, I realize his life has only been 3 years, but I stand by that statement and I have plenty of pictures and videos to prove it.

That is probably enough babbling for one day, so I will release you from the clutches of our blog for now, but check back often because I plan to update this thing at least every once in a while!

Last night Kaleb requested that we video tape him singing a song by Daughtry, it's called "It Feels Like Tonight", so here is video that resulted from this request (enjoy the guitar solo at about 15 seconds, and the power arm pump at about 24 seconds)
