Anniversary

This Valentines Day was our 10 year anniversary. It's crazy to me that it's been that long!! With both of our hectic schedules, it's easy to get caught up in the routine of everyday life and often times we forget to just take time for "us". So, Chris' mom came over and stayed with the kids so that we could go to Vegas for the weekend. We had so much fun!!! We hung out, went to a show, shopped and shopped and shopped, went to dinner and laughed ourselves silly! We didn't gamble though...we both work too hard to just throw our money away like that!! (Ya, I know, I'm cheap!)

I just have to brag on Chris for a minute. He's lost almost 40 lbs in the last month or so and I think he looks so awesome! So here's a picture. If you compare him to what he looked like in December at Shelby's baptism, there's a huge difference.

He's soooo going to kill me for posting these pictures lol Ok, enough about us. (everybody reads this to hear about the kids anyway)

The kids had a great time celebrating Valentines day in their classrooms. They each had parties and got loaded up on sugary sweets. Not that Preston needed anymore since I found a pile of candy wrappers behind my couch where he had eaten an ENTIRE bag and a half of chocolate!! UGH.. BOYS! They had a blast playing with Grandma for most of the weekend. Yesterday we went to see a movie and then played together. Today, they started back to school. (I love my children, but I have to admit that I really like it when it's time for them to go back to school!) The next couple of weeks will be crazy. They have dance performances coming up, SEP's, science fair, and a whole slew of other activities. I'll post pics as we go!
