OK. So this is going to be a pretty short post, even though we had an awesome week! John and I were able to continue our tradition of seeing
Weird Al Yankovic when he comes to town. Last time we saw him was back in July of 2010 in Orlando, FL. He came to the Utah State Fair this past Monday and we had a blast! We wished we could have hung out at the fair a little more--John had class until we had to leave for the concert. It'll be fun to take Sammy to the fair next year.
Weird Al did not disappoint and he played quite a few songs that we didn't get to hear him play last year. There was a pretty good turn out and it was fun to be nerdy with a whole group of people. I have included a few videos from the concert at the end of this post.
Entao, ainda nao sei como fazer um acento num PC americana, mas vou aprender. Por favor, tenha paciencia porque meu portugues nao 'e como deve ser. Esse mensagem vai ser curto esse semana, mas vou tentar, nas semanas seguinte, a colocar a traducao em portugues nas outras "posts" aqui. John e eu fomos um concerto de Weird Al Yankovic esse semana pasada. Vamos a cada vez que ele passar por nosso cidade. Fomos o ano passado tambem.
O concerto foi muito bom e ele tocou alguns musicas diferentes do ano passado. Tinha muitas outras pessoas la tambem e foi bom a divertir com as outras pessoas que gostam Weird Al. Se voce nao conhece Weird Al, ele faz parodias de musicas famosas. Tenho video no fim desse post do concerto.

On Friday, I took Sammy fly-fishing for the very first time. I put her in the backpack carrier and away we went! We didn't go to the pest of fishing holes, but there was a little park nearby. We fished for awhile and then played on the jungle-gym and then fished some more. We even ran into a little friend (that about made me fall into the water--see photo). All in all, it was a great week!
No sexta-feira, eu e Samantha fomos pescar para a primeira vez juntos. Coloquei Samantha numa mochila pelas criancas e foi muito bom. fomos numa parque por perto, mas nao foi muito bom para pescar. O parque tinha lugar pelas criancas a brincar, entao nos pescamos e depois brincamos um pouco. Nos tambem concermos uma nova "amiga" (ver a foto em baixo). A semana foi otima!

Our little friend.../nossa nova 'amiga'
This first song, "The Saga Begins", was actually Weird Al's encore song. It is a parody of American Pie. It is particularly special to John and me because it is our song. While we were dating, it is how we knew we were meant for each other. On the first day that we met, we were in a car with some friends and I was humming the song. My friend asked what I was singing, so I started to belt the song out loud. John joined right in and we sang it by heart. You don't meet very many devout Weird Al fans. We were meant for each other!
Esse primeira musica, "The Saga Begins" 'ema musica especial para John e eu. A primeira vez que nos conhecermos um a outro, estavamos com alguns amigos. Eu comecei a cantar esse musica em baixo. Minha amiga me perguntar o que eu era cantando. Eu comecei a cantar mais alta e John comecou a cantar a musica tambem. Nao tem muitas pessoas que gostam Weird Al tanto como nos dois!
