Las Vegas and then some

Wow, it's been a little while!  There have been some issues with phone and DSL lines in our apartment community off and on the last couple of weeks and it seems like it worked that when I was home, I had no signal, but when I was going to leave, or didn't have time to get on, I had a signal!  I think there must be a conspiracy against me going on here.  Well, it has been a couple of fun weeks though.  Jared and I went to Las Vegas together from the 24-26.  How nice it was to get away and just be a couple.  Big thanks to Marcy and Galen (aka Big Grandma and Grandpa) for watching the kids for us while we were gone.  It was Jared's yearly InterBike convention at the Sands Expo Center (attached to the Venetian Hotel) so he went to work, and I got to play!  I always love being in Vegas and seeing all the different happenings going on.  We were invited to a really cool party in the Voodoo lounge on the roof of the Rio Hotel this year.  We were so excited!  Too bad when we showed up the line to get into the door was forever long.  There was no way I was going to wait for over an hour in a line!  It was already 10:30 pm, so we went home and went to bed, cause we had another big event the next night, the World Finals Crit Races.  I know, the what?  Its a bike race where they make a course in a parking lot, in this case the Mandalay Bay event Center, and people race on their road bikes really fast and are absolutely vicious.  We saw lots of crashes and had fun partying till midnight, well, I was mainly partying, Jared was busy working and networking, handing out lots of busniess cards and free JensonUSA gear that I lovingly toted around for him. ;)  We had a great time like always, and can't wait till next years convention.  

The kids are doing good, Caleb is loving school this year, and Belle is missing her big brother when he is gone.  When we go pick Caleb up, Its so cute, cause the first thing Belle does when he comes out the door is give him a big hug and kiss.  She loves him so much, and Caleb is just as happy to see her and tell me all about his day at school.  I know we have lots of fun events coming up the next couple weekends so I should be posting more soon.
