10 Year Anniversary - Las Vegas

For our 10 year anniversary, Rick and I wanted to get away for a few days. Being pregnant narrowed our options for us. But Rick booked us a trip to Las Vegas! The first night we got there we just walked the strip and ate dinner at our hotel. Then we woke up and explored the city! We ate lunch at Serendipity3. It was outrageous! A tomato salad for me and sliders for Rick - $65!!! Wow! Then Rick surprised me with tickets to Cirque De Soleil - Mystere. It was amazing! Rick was very surprised by how much he enjoyed it! The next day we did some more exploring - there was just so much to see! Then we fit in some gambling. I convinced Rick to move from the penny slots to the quarters! We won some money and then spent it all! It was our anniversary and Rick had something up his sleeve, but he wouldn't tell me! He surprised me with dinner at The Eiffel Tower restaurant where he reserved a table with a view of the Bellagio Fountains. It couldn't have been more romantic! The food was phenomenal! After dinner he had gotten VIP passes to the top of the Eiffel tower! It was a perfect evening! The next day we woke up and headed to Ceasar's Palace. We got the 24 hour buffet pass, and ate until we couldn't eat anymore! Then we went to the Bellagio gardens, a classic car museum, to see the flamingos at the Flamingo hotel, and had lunch at another buffet! Then another surprise, Rick had so much fun at the first Cirque De Soleil, he bought tickets to see Zumanity! Which I think was Rick's favorite part of the whole trip! It was quite risque, but entertaining! Rick was so full of surprises this trip! We couldn't have had a better time! The time spent together and the memories made were priceless!

Vacation Bible School June 2011

Vacation Bible School was such a great experience! The boys lives were enriched with the bible stories they studied each day. Every night at dinner we would sit down and the boys would tell mommy and daddy what they learned during VBS. They even taught us a few things! They are so bright and were so touched by the stories they learned from the bible! After the first day there was a theme each day. Day 2 was Crazy Hat day. Day 3 was Red Day. Day 4 was Mix Match. And Day 5 was Beach Day. We had lots of friends in our classes. Ricky was in class with Brooklyn. Everett was in class with Addison, Julia, and Kade. Colson was in VBS too! We look forward to attending next summer too!

Bouncin' Bears - June 21, 2011

We went to Bouncin' Bears with our friend Courtney and her daughter Julia! The kids had so much fun! I got a lot more pics of Sawyer because Ricky and Everett were hard to catch! They were running around so much I could hardly keep up with them long enough for a picture! There were a few bouncy toys for Sawyer, and he loved it because he got to climb! We can't wait to go back!

Sawyer's First Official Haircut

Sawyer had his first official haircut on June 21st! Our smiley, happy go lucky boy, was not smiling at all! Luckily, the hairdresser Celinda is quick! Poor guy acted as if he was being tortured! I was trying to help hold him, soothe him, and take pics with my cell phone all at once! These are the pics I got! Poor guy!
