April has been a crazy whirlwind so far. \u00a0Wait, today is the 30th. \u00a0Ok it officially flew by. \u00a0This year<\/i>\u00a0is flying by. \u00a0I know a big part of it is because Austin is about to graduate but how can Eva’s kindergarten year almost be over?<\/p>\n

Speaking of Eva, she had a birthday \ud83d\ude42
\n\"\"<\/a>
\nHer last night of being a six year old.<\/p>\n

We celebrated with friends and the boys girlfriends<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nI’m doing this blog post from my iPhone- if it works I am hoping to get more posts up this way!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nI love our street and the walk home from school everyday<\/p>\n

Andy had to speak at a conference in Las Vegas so the older boys and I tagged along and went to the Grand Canyon<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>\"\"<\/a>
\n\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

It was pretty amazing. \u00a0And kinda scary in some places!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>\"\"<\/a>\"\"<\/a>\"\"<\/a>
\nThe next day we went to Hoover Dam which was also very cool. \u00a0I have pictures of both from my big camera that I will post later.
\n\"\"<\/a>
\nNext stop was Vegas. \u00a0We had a pretty cool room where we could all spread out
\n\"\"<\/a>\"\"<\/a>
\nAnd some unique artwork
\n\"\"<\/a>\"\"<\/a>
\nBlake has to rest frequently<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nThese two goofballs…<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nWe went to see a cirque du soleil show that the boys loved<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>\"\"<\/a>
\nAustin won $41 off of $5<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nThe boys flew home and I stayed a couple more days to relax by the pool.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nIt was a really great trip and I was so glad we took the older boys.<\/p>\n

That said I was so very happy to get back home and see my youngers and pups.<\/p>\n
