EP release party

Listening to conference while I write this post, can you say multi tasker? I think I'm pretty good at it honestly, my husband might disagree though. I always have to rewind my shows multiple times because I get distracted and miss entire scenes and then am confused about what's going on. Thank goodness for DVR, but it drives him crazy. He's so patient with me though even when I do it mulitiple times during one show, he usually won't even say anything. Love you David! I really am enjoying conference today though! Can't wait for tomorrow! 

We had a really fun night last night I wanted to write about. My husband has been working with a super talented and adorable 11 year old girl named Aaliyah. He produced her EP as well as is working as her manager, booking her shows etc. If you don't know what an EP is, it basically means an album that is too short to be called an album, but is more songs than just a single. Hers has 5 songs. 5 glorious songs. This little gal has so much raw natural singing talent it's absolutely unreal. 

Last night she had her EP release party and boy was it fun! It was at a cool event center in Orem. They had bounce houses, giant inflatable slides, x box kinects projected onto giant walls, tons of catered food, delicious desserts homemade by Aaliyah's grandma. The whole night was so much fun for the whole family. David helped put the event together with Aaliyah's parents, as well as run sound, and book the talent. A few of his clients performed which is always fun to see them live! 

Aaliyah doing sound check with her newly formed band David put together. They sounded amazing and were so good! You would never know they had only practiced together like twice before the big day. 

Kayden relaxing enjoying sound check before the party started! 


He loved the bounce house, and the obstacle course blow up slide! There were a few times I had to run into the obstacle course because he was too little to climb the wall to the slide, so I would have to hoist him over! Poor guy, thinks he can run with the big kids! He loves other kids! Especially kids his size! He laughs and tries to hug and tickle them! 

I pretty much failed at getting any good photos of all the girls who performed before Aaliyah! I love them all though! Wrestling 2 babies alone pretty much left my hands full! I tried though. I did have a lot of volunteers to hold sway while I chased Kayden around, which was super nice and helpful! Thanks again ladies, of course they were all loving on her. She's a very snuggly little baby! 

Here's a not super clear picture of cute Kenz Hall rockin the stage with her guitar! She's amazing, love her beautiful voice! 

David was up there helping with everything the entire show as well as MCing! He's a hard working man! 


Here's the little babe herself, Aaliyah. All in all the entire night was great and she did such a great job performing! People were screaming for another song when she finished! 

She has some exciting things in the works coming up, watch out for her! Have a fabulous conference weekend! 

Xoxo
