Day 114

text copied from my Facebook post just minutes ago...

Tonight B has a late baseball game (hopeful that it starts by 7:30). It is his 4th in a row, but it is his passion. I am so sad to miss it. I absolutely adore watching him play right now. Four baseball games during the school week is an awful lot to ask of the littles though. So tonight we are having some chill time and cheering from home

Day 113

For Wednesday night...

Back at the baseball field (every night but Friday this week).

Here is B getting ready to bat.  He always does a "triple tap" on home plate before bringing the bat to his shoulder! :)

Day 112

Wow...back to my regular schedule which is pretty amazing since it is 10pm and we are just now getting home from Emma's soccer game and Brendan's baseball game.  Jackson also had a game tonight, but he is at Camp Hanes with his class so actually we had a lighter load tonight than we originally thought!

Here is a photo that I snapped today with my new 85mm lens.  Our azaleas are coming in nicely now.

Day 111

For Monday, April 21st...

Today is the 6 year anniversary of my dad passing.  In some ways, it seems like yesterday.  Thankfully in other ways, the pain from missing him is not quite so fresh.

Still miss him everyday!

Day 110

For Easter Sunday, April 20th...

I was so bad this year.  I didn't take any photos of the kids on Easter.  We were missing Jackson; he was still at the beach with MiMi, and I just didn't have the strength to get my camera out.  I was still on west coast time.

Here is a shot I posted on Instagram of our blooming dogwood tree. It is beautiful right now, and I love the story of the dogwood tree and the cross.

Day 109

For Saturday, April 19th

Today we traveled home.  It was very tiring.  We basically collapsed when we got home.  This is a picture I snapped of the suite we were in just before we left.

It was pretty amazing.

Day 108

Posting for Friday, April 18th...

Today we had another pool day although it was mostly cloudy.

Tonight we took a cab to MGM and had dinner.  Then we walked across the way to New York New York and went to a dueling piano bar. It was so much fun!

Day 107

Posting for Thursday, April 17th...

This morning, JC and I woke up around 6am PST.  We headed down for some coffee at our favorite cafe in the Bellagio and then walked around the Conservatory.

We had another pool day, and then we all went to Tao for dinner. It was delicious!  Check out this big fortune cookie dessert we got to share!!!

Day 106

Posting for Wednesday, April 16th...

we flew to Las Vegas today to celebrate my 40th birthday!  We checked in and headed straight for the pool for a couple of hours.

This is the view from our suite!

Not too bad!!!

40 and still counting...
