STAY TUNED FOR SOME MORE GREAT PICTURES AND VIDEO!!
So just about a week ago I told Ken that my sister asked him to sing for my nephew Nick Merrill who was just returning from a mission in Montana! Ken loves to sing with with our nearly famous cousins band K-5 consisting of my nephew's and one niece, Bailey, Buddy,Cade, Dane and Emmett Koozer! They are awesome. They were all on stage ready to rock and when the curtians opened....we yelled, "SURPRISE!" Ken was stunned while he scanned the crowd and realized that it was all for him! It couldn't have been more perfect! He rocked the house with K-5! Then we all enjoyed getting down with the awesome DJ, Elliot Miller. Especially Scott and the brother's. They really let loose! The night was topped off by a moving rendition of Total Eclipse of the Heart by Rob and Ken Morris! I hope you all had as much fun as Ken and I! Thanks again!!!

K-5 and Missie and Hal Koozer- for lugging all the band equipment up from Maricopa and the late night practice and picking up the cakes!

I had a great time. I was sad that I was so late and missed the surprise part. We need to do family stuff more often.
