Rel & I got tickets to go see Hozier for her birthday in AZ on November 2nd. I love going to a concert where I don’t know all of their music. I enjoy becoming a HUGE FAN by the end. This was one of those concerts. This guy is a 6’6′ Irish singer songwriter. He has a massive band, mostly from Nashville. They play every single instrument a band should have. Rel’s friend Lexi came with us. We also learned we’d been pronouncing his name all wrong. I will most definitely be seeing him again!




Rel & TT celebrated their 22nd birthdays apart again. Rel went to dinner at a place that also has board games with all of friends.

We celebrated TT together at our house for cake. We also went to Benihanas, where the photo lighting was terrible. Then, he and Kenna celebrated in Logan too.




We made some decisions for the Somerset remodel.

Rel also took a trip to San Diego to scout out moving there once she graduates.

The girls went to their very first Aggies football game.







On November 15th, B went in for his second back surgery. This time they fused his spine. His nerve pain for the last year has been excruciating and his right leg had atrophied to a troubling difference. He really did not want to have to do this and was very worried it wouldn’t work. But thank heavens, it relieved him completely of the nerve pain. He was very quickly back on his feet and capable of walking.


We stayed in UT for Turkey Day this year. TT & Kenna were with her family. Lelu & Jake hosted the Martins. We had a low-key quiet day with Aub, Master D, Elisha, and Rel.


The girls met up to get pedicures.


And then went to brunch together.

Elle is a tiny little bean.
