Amazing Book Signing!!

So, as always, time has flown by the last few months!  We are heading out to Tennessee on May 3-that's just a week and a half away!!  I can't believe how soon it is.  We are SOOO excited to go but I am very nervous at the same time.  I think it will be a great experience for both of us but I am sure I will be super homesick.  At least I will have my hubby with me  :-)  

Last night my mom and I had an amazing opportunity!  We went to Northridge High School in Layton for an event that the Davis County Library was putting on.  They had invited Mary Higgins Clark and her daughter Carol Higgins Clark to come and do a book signing!  I have been a fan of Mary for many years.  I believe I started reading her books when I was about 11 years old.  

The night started out with a formal question/answer session.  I never knew how funny they both are!  It was really fun listening to their stories and life experiences.  After that was over they sat down to sign our books!!  I had them sign two of my favorite books (Two Little Girls in Blue by Mary Higgins Clark and Santa Cruise which was written by both of them.)  My mom also had them sign a couple of hers.  We were also able to have our picture taken with them.  I will NEVER forget that experience!  It was so awesome!!!

How awesome! I love Mary Higgins Clark as well! I have read her books forever! I am so excited for you guys! I am so glad that I can keep in touch with you through your blog! I wish you the very best. The other night I was talking about a girl named Nicki that lives up here and Caleb said "Oh! I remember Nikki, she was out baby sitter in Utah!" Oh how I miss you and your family!

Ya it was really awesome! I'm glad too :-) I miss you guys so much! I'm glad that he still remembers me!! I miss babysitting your cute kids, they were so much fun! I am so sad I we don't get to see each other more. But your family is so dang cute and you seem to be enjoying it up there. I can't believe how big they've all gotten. I think Mara is the biggest shock to me! Your baby girl looks so much like her! Anyways, it was really good to hear from you! Keep in touch!
