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.

A little late, but always great to appreicate Dad...

A VERY Fun Weekend...

I had such a great weekend. My Mom and Grandma came from Utah. My Mom's cousins daughter got married, and they live here in Vegas. They got here on Friday and we watched the Jazz game and had dinner. Then Saturday morning Mom and Grandma went to the Temple for the wedding and we went to soccer games and a Primary activity. Then that night Mom, Grandma, and I went to the wedding reception. It was beautiful!! The bride and groom looked very happy and they were excited to see Grandma. They for mothers day we went to church and again watched the Jazz. On Monday and today we just hung out together and we went to a movie this afternoon. After the kids came home from school, Mom and Grandma went home. We were so sad to see them leave, we sure enjoyed our visit. My Mom is not able to visit a lot so it was sure fun to have her here. I just hate to see my family leave, I miss them so much!! Besides Shane, my Mom and my sisters are my BEST FRIENDS!! So after some shedding of tears, (and I haven't done that for a long time) life must return to normal. Back to work and normal living. Thanks for the GREAT weekend Mom.....I love you and miss you.
