Kastyn's First time bowling...

Saturday night we not only celebrated our 6 year anniversary with dinner, but we also took Kastyn bowling for the first time! We have been wanting to take her for quite a while, but have just never had the opportunity...so we finally did! She had so much fun and could have played all night long! And for her first time she did great! 57 first game 77 second game! She played with bumpers, but still did great!

Kastyn's Early Bday Gift!

So our Awesome neighbors across the street(Gamma, Shell and B) are worse than little kids when it comes to a big surprise or a gift! I had text after text tonight from Michelle making sure we were going to be home, and to keep Kastyn up a little longer cuz they wanted to give her the birthday present they bought for her a little early! So after a little TV we made our way outside, and Kastyn had to find her present in their garage...it didn't take long for her to spot a shiny new ride!

She was SO excited when she found the new bike they had gotten for her! It is bunches bigger than her current bike...but that didn't scare her at all...she jumped right on and took off!

Weekend Visitors...the Arnold's!!!

This past weekend we were lucky enough to have some friends come to town to see us! They are the same friends we met in January at GWL in Dallas for the weekend! The girls were SO excited to see each other!!!

We had a fun filled weekend, of playing, the park, the zoo, a couple cookouts and even a photoshoot! They have been gone since Sunday, and Kastyn still asks daily about Anden and Cole!

Our three little Penguins! Kastyn is 12 days younger than Anden...and Cole was 2 in May!

Matt and Jen were blessed on June 30, 2009 with not one healthy baby, but two healthy baby girls. They were nice enough to bring them to Wells Fargo today(Matt works with Nick)...so everyone could get a lookie at the new bundles of joy!!

Viva Las Vegas!!!

I win! I planned an awesome trip to Vegas this week, to celebrate Nick's 30th Birthday, and he had no idea!! With the help of family and friends....we successfully got Nick all the way to the airport without him having a CLUE that he was going to Vegas for three days! It was great! He kept repeating..No we aren't...No...Really? No way! I don't think he really believed me until he placed his first bet in Vegas!

We had a great time, and are so glad we were able to share our first trip to Vegas with our great neighbors! It was so nice having our own personal attendants to show us around! Michelle and Belinda were more than we could have asked for!

We didn't WIN a ton, but we didn't' lost much either...it was a pretty even playing field. We lost the most money on a bad cab ride...and ended up spending over $50 to get to the FINAL destination! UGH! Oh well! All in all...we had a fantastic time!

pictures to come...as soon as I can get them uploaded!
