LAS VEGAS

This past weekend we went to Vegas for a little vacation. We got tickets to the Utes vs. UNLV game and made a trip out of it. Tricia, Kamie and Kaylen picked us up Friday afternoon and we headed down. We stayed at the Excalibur, walked up and down the strip, shopped, ate way too much, and went to the Utes game. We had great seats at the game and I loved every minute of it. The whole trip was alot of fun, especially having little Kaylen there. He was so excited he didn't even know what to do with himself. He stayed up way to late and woke up way to early.. ha ha! He absolutely loved the water show at the Bellagio (as you can see by his huge grin in all the pictures). I already miss him so much and am sad the trip is over, but I'm so glad we went. We had a blast!

Austin is finally home!

Austin has been home for about a week and half now and it has been great! I'm so glad he is finally home, I missed him so much. Every since he's been home, we've been going non stop. He got here last friday and that same day we headed to Lincoln County for the 100th year celebration. We went to the homecoming football game, got to visit with his grandparents and family, and toured the town of Caliente. I had been to Pioche and Lincoln county a couple time but never to Caliente. They showed me where they used to live and told lots of funny stories about growing up there.
WELCOME TO CALIENTE:The house Austin grew up in:
Suprisingly, we had lots of fun over there and we loved spending time with his family! This last weekend we headed up to Scofield for the weekend. The whole summer Austin just kept saying that when we get home we're going straight to the cabin, so we did! Brandi, Ty, Austin and I headed up Friday night and Lana and Tyson met us there on Saturday. We had a blast. On Saturday morning we went four-wheeling, carved our names in a tree, and got pulled over, ha ha! After Tyson and Lana got there we had lunch and went on a ride in the scout. Yes, all six of us fit in the bright orange scout. Later we played games, had steak dinner, watched a scary movie, and went to bed. The next day we all enjoyed watching Tyler try and outsmart the ducks and geese. ha ha! We lounged all day, ate food and watched football. We had a great weekend and are so happy that Austin is home!
IN THE SCOUT:
Yeah, Austin's "A" struggles, ha ha .. It was suppost to be BAAT, for our names!
