Vegas, Baby!

For spring break, we are heading to Las Vegas! The girls are very excited and ready to get on the road. We plan on visiting Lake Mead and the Hoover Dam as well as taking in a few other yet-to-be-determined attractions. Although Las Vegas may not seem like a logical family vacation, we do have our reasons. The rooms are cheap, there is plenty to do, it's only a days drive and who doesn't want to go to Vegas?

We'll be sure to post pictures when we get back!

Update...

Here are some pictures of the girls. They are keeping themselves and their mother busy. Emily's church choir is starting a big production for this spring and we have recently been informed that there will be 3-hour long Saturday rehearsals. She also joined the school choir and they have a few performances scheduled for this spring.

Reese is participating in choir at church and there will be a performance this spring. She is counting down the number of days until her birthday and our yearly Sand Dunes camping trip.

Noelle is a cutie pie and is becoming quite the little helper. She "helps" me with the dishes, laundry and general cleaning up. She runs her toy vacuum right beside me when I am using the grown-up version. She keeps her room cleaner than her two older sisters and likes to dust.

Jeff is traveling often and racking up frequent flyer miles and hotel points for me. I plan on joining him for a weekend in Seattle some time this spring and will use the hotel points when I take the girls to Minnesota.

I am proud to report that I have lost 5 of the 40 pounds I hope to shed by the end of the year. My motivation is the upcoming wedding of my baby brother. He and his wife-to-be, Sara, have set a date of June 11, 2005 for their upcoming nuptials. We are very happy that he has found someone willing to put up with him. :)
