Las Vegas Trip

Mother's Day Brunch
We enjoyed the spa everyday
Brinlee loves Papa and his kisses
Grammy couldn't get enough of this sweet, beautiful girl!

Ryan, Brinlee and I went to Las Vegas for Mother's Day weekend, and as always had a fabulous time! Carolyn and Arden are always so hospitable, and make it very enjoyable to visit. Brinlee loved spending time with them, and they enjoyed being grandparents. We were able to enjoy a manicure and pedicure, Mother's Day brunch at the Marriott, a massage, and a really cool magic show by Steve Wyrick. We forgot our camera, but Carolyn was so good to share her pictures. We love you Grammy and Papa!! Thank you so much for a wonderful weekend :-)

Kenny Chesney Concert

For Ryan's birthday I got him Kenny Chesney tickets, and last night was the great concert. We had so much fun just being together and enjoying an evening without kids. Leeann Rimes, Brooks and Dunn and Kenny Chesney all gave great performances.

Soccer Game

Graciously greeting the crowd



I had to throw picture in she just LOVES to go bye bye especially when she gets to drive!!

Ok so by now I am beginning to feel really boring! As I have not posted since Easter. We are keeping busy, but with everyday life nothing to interesting to blog about. We did go to a charity soccer game between FC Dallas and LA Galaxy and yes David Beckham did show up (last time he did not and that did not go over well with all of the fans). We have mid field front row seats and got to see him in action up close!! He is an amazing soccer player and lucky for us played the entire game, and was on our side for the 2nd half! We had a good time, and it was fun to the "Michael Jordan" of soccer play! He always draws a big crowd.

Easter Egg Hunt

She LOVED the Easter Bunny :-)
Ready set, no not yet...It was fun by myself!!
Counting down....
Not liking it one bit a little over whelming...too many kids!!

Brinlee meant the Easter Bunny and went on her first Easter Egg Hunt! She loved the Easter Bunny, and the hunt until it began. All of the kids running out on the field scared her and she started to cry :-(

Oh well it was fun to get out and enjoy a beautiful Spring day!!

Happy Birthday Austyn!!

Yesturday was Austyn's BIG 13TH birthday!! Yikes he is a true teenager now. Ryan took him and 3 friends to the movies and afterward they came to our home to have pizza and play the

Our Week

Our backyard

Here is what our week has looked like.... Damon's first soccer game was last Saturday. What a handsome soccer player his is and a good sport. He has never played and is catching on really good. I have enjoyed my new bike, and Brinlee LOVES to go for rides. We went to feed the ducks. We had snow on Tuesday and it was beautiful, yesturday I mowed the lawn hoping to get rid of all the dead grass and have it turn green.....and today SNOW again!!! Damon and I had fun making snow man, and enjoyed hot chocolate afterward.
