Ben Folds Concert















Tuesday night we went to see Ben Folds at the Gammage Theatre in Tempe. It was part of Homecoming week at ASU. They featured songs from their new album Way to Normal as well as a few fake songs they had posted on their website for fans prior to the release of the album. After they played their set of mostly newer music, they came out and played a bunch of their older songs including “Rockin the Suburbs”, “Still Fighting it”, “Annie Waits”, “Philosophy”, and “Underground”. The concert was really entertaining. We were both extremely engaged by the ‘piano-pounding pandemonium’. Four Thumbs up for Ben Folds (Two from each of us)!

Happy Halloween!

For Halloween this year we went to our ward party as well as Brad's sister's ward party. Her three sons went as Indiana Jones (Michael), The Flash (Derek) and Spiderman (Tyler). It was so fun to be with them.






We also had a young couples party for our ward. You were supposed to bring a decorated cake and dress up in your favorite era. This was my attempt at making a pumpkin looking cake.















For Halloween evening we went with the Crandalls to the Biltmore Mall, where they play old fashion movies on a projector screen in a courtyard. It was a lot of fun! Happy Halloween!
