Vegas Baby!
I will be taking two Vegas trips in a matter of weeks. The first trip was for work. It was a great trip to the ULI conference.

For the Love of Animals.
Here is this months cornucopia of animal pictures. Levi and Bella did not manage to get much picture time this month. I have been taking riding lessons and am now confident enough to ride pigeon, our 'go' more than 'whoa' horse. Did I mention the round pen lesson that Sid gave me on trotting pigeon awhile back. I should have been concerned when she told me to just 'hang on' as she stood in the middle and lunged him while I was on his back. Well, you only live once I guess.
Sweet Bailey. To think he was the craziest puppy I have ever had. He is the most mellow adult dog!

Mid-Century Club.
My little sister turned 50. Wait, what? That makes me somewhere north of that. I made a trip to visit her for a girls weekend. We had a great time. We had a spa afternoon. We went for a gorgeous walk along the lake, and we did some amazing shopping. It was just what the doctor ordered.
We also took in a movie, We Live In Time. It was beautiful and amazing and OH SO SAD and I literally bawled.

Car Realities.
I started to title this post "car whoa's", but I decided to make the subtle change to "car realitie's". Why? Simply because we are so blessed as a family to each have our own car. With much privilege, comes much responsibility and sometimes things just happen. Here are a few of those tales.
Kendall got some practice changing a flat tire. Thank goodness it happened as she was pulling into the neighborhood. Much better than somewhere else. The moral of the story is 'things like this never happen at a convenient time'. She had a crazy day ahead of her and had to deal with this sudden inconvenience.

BSU Bound!
Kendall signed up for Bronco Day and took Sid along for the fun. They showed up right on time, which meant late. The day started in the Morrison Center with the marching band and big festivities. By the time they arrived all of the seats were filled and they joined a hundred or so prospective students in the overflow area.
They spent some time in the maker lab decorating cups. They also visited the bookstore and bought some items to get their 'free' lanyard:).
The big reveal....drum roll please...Kendall is going to BSU. She is super excited. She got her acceptance letter along with a Dean's scholarship award! She has worked hard, and she is starting to reap the rewards of that hard work. I am going to enjoy every moment of this last year with her, as she will be moving on to bigger things before I know it. She did ask me if she could come home to do laundry...of course. Then she asked if she could come home for dinner...uh, no. I am not going to take up cooking just to get you home:).
