We were home with our kids for one day, only to leave again for Las Vegas. Vegas was my gift to Craig for his thirtieth birthday. My sister Sarah and her husband Aaron went along as well. We had alot of fun, however, the heat was unbelievable. While we were laying out by the pool, we got to see Deion Sanders, who used to play for the Dallas cowboys, so you can only imagine how excited the boys where. We stayed at the The Hotel at Mandalay Bay, in an amazing suit. We where only able to do that because we shared a room with my sister and brother in law. Other wise, it would have been way out of our price range. So thanks Sarah and Aaron, for putting up with Craig and I for 4 days.
We got back last Sunday, only for Mason to start preschool the next day. I cannot believe how big he is. He only goes to school two days a week and then he and Reece go to PDO on the days that I work. I can't wait for the new baby, because I get to go part time, and the kids can stay home with me. Part time for me will be just 2 days a week, which means I can still do what the Lord has called me to do , as well as what I love to do more than anything else, be with my family.
Here are a few pictures of the last 2 weeks
Oh, and did I mention, we also got a puppy for Mason this week. Her name is Blue and she is a Chocolate Lab. Not sure why Mason chose Blue for a brown dog who is also a girl, but that's what he wanted, so that's her name. We have been waiting for her for a long time, so we are glad to finally have her. I think!
Yikes!
