Last Day of School...


I know it's a month late, but Bryce graduated from the Early Childhood Learning program through the Clark County School District. We are so excited for him. I cannot believe that my baby is now going to be in Kindergarten next year. However, he will be attending all day and I am very excited for that. I just wanted to let Bryce know that we are so proud of him and love him very much!!

Goodbye old Friend.


Two weeks ago tomorrow our beloved dog Zeus passed away. He was a great dog and a joy to have in our family. He had been sick of a couple of months and after getting arthritis and spinal nerve damage, he ended up blind. It was very hard to watch him get sicker and sicker. We were going to put him down, but we came home and found that he had passed away. He was a great dog to have and the kids enjoyed him. he will be terribly missed.

Swim Time....


Living here in Las Vegas has it's pro's and con's. We are very lucky to have some great friends that have a pool at there home. Shane has always bugged me that he wants a pool and I tell him to go swimming at Gil and Julie's. Well, a couple of weeks ago we went swimming at Gil and Julie's and had a great time. My kids have not slept that good in a long time. They love to go swimming and do cannonballs. Gil and Julie are the greatest and never care that we come and swim. They are my kids "Vegas Grandparents"!! Thanks Gil and Julie for your love and friendship!! We love you!! (This is defiantly a pro!)
