A WhoLe lOt of NOthInG





This is what we have been up to lately... A whole lot of nothing!  We have just been enjoying our summer by swimming in the pool at Grandma Dru's house, enjoying some Creamies, playing with all our cousins who came in town, swimming in the Skeen's pool, and living in the jumper!  He just can't get enough of it!

Who Knew $3.97 Could Bring So Much JoY??

While I was in Vegas, Max's aunt Sara watched him and took him to play with his friend Lucy!  She had a little pool that he just loved!  He started to cry when Sara took him out!  So.... being such a thoughtful aunt.. Sara went out and bought Max his own $3.97 pool!  He LOVES it!!! Thanks Auntie Sara!!!



Here he is just posing like a Abercrombie swimsuit model!  Just getting ready to enjoy a day in the pool!


StaR StrUck iN VeGas...

So last week I went to Vegas with my mom and sister!  We had a blast!  I have to say it was so hard leaving Max!  The morning I left, I felt like I was going to throw up!  When I got in my car to leave that morning Dan had written the cutest letter reassuring me that everything was going to be fine!  Knowing that Max would be with Dan and my in-laws the whole time made it a whole lot easier!
On the way to Vegas we had to stop and pick up my sis in St. George.  My mom and I can never go to St. George without going to Golden Spoon!  Even if it is a major detour!  


We got there at on Tuesday night at 6:00!  We decided to go straight to Ceasar's Palace to scope out the View situation!  As we were walking around the casino, Barbara Walters and Whoopi walked by!  Me and my sister followed them and took millions of pictures!  My mom was so embarrassed!  She acted like she didn't know us!  So when we were done with that my sister was calling everybody!  She was so "Star Struck!"  As she was on the phone, I saw Elisabeth!  I told my sister to get off her phone because there is Elisabeth!  She is my sisters favorite!  We couldn't really get a good pic of her!  She didn't have a body guard like Whoopi and Barbara! It was hard to even know it was her!  She was very little!  They were all meeting for dinner together!  
We ended up going to bed at 1:30 in the morning!  Without any kids, my sister was CRAZY!  Jumping on the bed, screaming!  Just crazy!  My mom and I would be falling asleep and she would say "I can' sleep, I am just so star struck!"  
We had to wake up at 4:30 a.m. to be there at 6:00a.m.! We barely got in!  We were the last 6 people!  They over book the show by 200!  We were so nervous!  We had a ball!
