Catching UP

 This year we stayed home for Easter.

 Above, one morning Whitley (little mama) decided Joseph was hot so she gave him a wipey bath.  The funny part was how much Joseph was enjoying it.

 Mother's day weekend we went home and got to meet Vivien for the first time.  They were in from D.C.  It was great to see the whole family.  Joseph couldn't keep his hands off Miss Vivien. 

 Whitley and Jo in deep thought and conversation.

 We surprised John and Whit with an early birthday celebration to Great Wolf.  Never mind the waterpark, the bunk beds in the "Wolf Den" were AWESOME.  We had a blast.

 Joseph's new house toy is a hit with kids of all ages.  When I put it together Whitley couldn't get enough of it, then when John and his friend Brett got home they immediately played with it.

 Just a swingin....

 Apparently I was so excited to get Jo in the swing that I forgot to wash his face...

 Last Friday night Kurt and the older 2 camped out on the patio.  I didn't think they would make it all night but they did.  Whitley came in at dark, but then after 20 minutes she decided she wanted to go back out.  The next morning Kurt and John went to work and they had to bring Whitley in, still snoozing even with the sun up.  It was a good experience.  The funny part was them sweating in their pj's waiting for the sun to go down that night.  We knew it would cool down, but it took a while!  Kurt was so glad that I had planned a campout for him after a long week of work. ;)

 This week we had an early b.day celebration at school for John.

Whit and Jo and I have been enjoying some early morning excercise this week. 

I have so many pictures on my phone that I need to post, but I haven't figured out how...I am sure it isnot hard, but really I don't have the energy for anything new to figure out.

Viva Las Vegas

Kurt and I went to Vegas in March for the ConExpo.  It was a huge equipment expo.  Kurt worked a little and I rested and shopped!  At night we saw O (amazing), ate at the Eiffel Tower Restaurant and saw Peep Show (amazingly trashy :) ).  Our pictures did not turn out very good, but at least we got a few.  We love Vegas!

 Pistachio Souffle was really tasty!

 Our view from the restaurant.

 We could see the Belagio fountains from our table.  The pictures don't do it justice.
