Kelly and Preston

My niece, Kelly Marie Russell Kempton and her son, Preston came to stay with us for a few days.  They left this morning.  We will miss them so much!

Tyler and Preston became really  good buddies!

Sweet 16

Happy sweet 16 to my sweet MOE / M&M! Emily had drill the evening of her birthday. She got home around 9:00 and then we had a fun, late family birthday party for her. She wanted two ice cream pies instead of a birthday cake. We had a lemonade pie and asphalt pie. Asphalt pie is a mint chocolate chip ice cream with an Oreo cookie crust and caramel on top.

Tuacahn Theater and Las Vegas

For Christmas last year,Troy and Deedra gave our family a gift certificate to the Tuacahn Theater. We chose to go see "The Little Mermaid" during the kid's fall break last month. We loved it. The props and special effects were amazing!

This picture was taken during the song, "Under the Sea". Sebastian was amazing!

With Scuttle

We spent the night with Roger and Jill and then after breakfast we went to Nana's and Grandma Martha's house in Las Vegas.

The kids had so much fun playing in Troy and Deedra's pool with their kids!
