Spring 2010

It has been a while since I last updated my blog. This Spring has been a time we spent as a family. Here are a few highlights from the last couple months...

Payton graduated from preschool. She loved her time at UNLV preschool. She misses it so much already.

The boy to Payton's right is the boy Payton loves. His name is Adam. Adam does not like her though. Tristan likes Payton. He is the boy behind her right shoulder. (She has kissed both boys on the playground at school.)

My birthday was so fun. The kids picked out these flowers for me. I got my Nook, which I LOVE!! and we spent the day as a family.

We went to the Dolphin Habitat at the Mirage.

The place also has tigers, lions, alpaca, and jaguars.

Here are two of the dolphins

It has been an emotional time for me. Madi has finished her first year of school and Payton starts Kindergarten next year. My kids re growing up!

This is not all the highlights from my Spring. We were able to go to Phoenix and visit family. When we were there, Greg got really sick. He went to the Urgent Care and found out he had strep throat. After telling the doctor what medicines to prescribe him, he was on a very slow recovery. The next day I was outside with the kids and my in-laws (Greg was on the couch the whole weekend) and Madi slipped and fell on her face, then she immediately rolled into the pool. There was blood EVERYWHERE! My wonderful sister-in-law helped me bring Madi to the ER. She got 4 stitches in her face. That was almost four weeks ago and she still has a red nose, but the scar seems to be healing well.

We thought we would be moving this summer, but we have decided to stick Vegas out for another year or so. Greg is being put on orders to work in the Las Vegas Armory to fill out paperwork for injured soldiers. He will take the GRE soon and apply to the University of Phoenix to get his Masters in Counseling. It is crazy how things end up. I am really happy to be staying and teaching another year at my school. We are grateful for the last three months we were able to spend with Greg.
