iPhone!

Through a lucky series of events (non-smart phone breaking, dad's old iPhone having a button break), Audrey became the proud owner of a new iPhone 5s. This was not our plan, but when the Apple store was trading in an old iPhone plus giving us an $80 credit to the store and a new iPhone, how could we refuse?

Of course, I had to document this. Audrey also somehow scored a free $40 case from the AT&T store after she and Ward spent a crazy amount of time there getting her account set up. I think the worker was trying to make up for the frustrating time in the store. The free case did help ease the pain.

So now Audrey has a pretty cool phone and I'm excited for her!

This layout is based on the June Scrapbook Circle sketch that was designed by Diana Fisher. I loved the single photo option for this page plus all of the layering with tags.  If you want more info on the sketch and to find out how to play along for your chance to win a cool prize, stop by the Scrapbook Circle blog for details.

New Order Concert

Last month (the week before we moved!) Ward and I spent one night in Vegas at a New Order concert.  Seeing this band was on my husband's wish list and he put the trip together and made it happen.

We had a really fun trip. We flew over on a Thursday morning and started the day at the Paris hotel cafe where we ate crepes for breakfast. Not a bad way to start the day! We went to an Andy Warhol exhibit at the Bellagio and then did a tour of Zappos new office space. We spent a little time by the pool before we got ready for the concert.

We were able to get a room at the concert hotel that had a balcony overlooking the pool which was where the concert was taking place. We sold our concert tickets and watched the concert from a lounge chair on our balcony.  Best concert seats ever!

The starting point for this page was this May Scrapbook Circle sketch designed by Diana.

Are you ready for the weekend?  We will be celebrating Audrey's 13th birthday this weekend. It seems absolutely impossible that she is turning 13, but it is true. We'll celebrate with some shopping tomorrow morning and then some time at the lake. On Sunday we will have a family dinner party. Fun times!
