Vacation

We finally took a vacation, and decided to go and see family in Las Vegas for a week, and then in Ohio. We had such a fun time!! Through the trip, we got to see 14 of out nieces and nephews, and I think Kirk went home with the "Uncle of the Year" award. He was so great! I'm going to post a bunch of pictures, because they are alot more fun than me describing what we did.

Teej and me at his home in Vegas - then with Drew




Cute Pictures of Baby Cameron!!



Dad's dog Rowdy, and Brad's dog Ella - so adorable!


Brad and I at Smith and Wollenskie's ( I'm sure I spelled that wrong). It was the most expensive restaurant I've ever eaten at - but the dessert was amazing!!



A great view of the strip from on top of the Eiffel Tower. It was so windy up there!

Kirk trying to show off wake-boarding. This was his first summer getting out of the water - he loved it!

We wish we took more pictures. It was so great to spend some time with family. I'm so glad we got to see Teej and Lind's home before they move to Utah. It was so fun to see Brad at work. We finally got to see Gaylinn's beautiful home in Medina - and were so glad that Joy was able to make it out with her kid's. And I'm sure that Kari and Dirk felt our timing couldn't have been better :) Good luck with the move to Pittsburgh!

Well, as many of you know, Kirk's brother Brett is living with us for a couple of months. To be honest, I was a little nervous :) , but it has really been great! Kirk is excited to have someone (other than me) to hang out with. Granted, there has been a lot more wrestling, and a lot more X-Box (as you can see from the photos). But, all in all, it has been really nice to have Brett here and get to know him better!
