Big day for Gage, he ran for student body Vice President and has been campaigning all week. Today he had to give his speech in front of the whole student body. Very scary..... The Principle told them only to clap not to yell and when Gage got up everyone yelled for him, He did great. Now for my video taping, not so great. I used Phen's camera and thought you could turn it like a picture, you can't........The most amazing part is he won...... Congrats Gage!!!!!



They Had to give their twice. This is the first terrible tape job.

Big day today, we have a 8th grader and a 5th grader. I cant believe it where does the time go.... Next year we will have one in High School and one in Middle school. It seems like we just moved to Vegas and now 5 years later here we are. As I drop Gage off today early because they asked him to come help with the little kids, I had to cry as I drove away.........

She's here!!! Her name is Olive and we love her. She is much smaller then we thought she would be and she has no fear..... Tallulah waits by her burrow in the mornings till she comes out and Griffen is still not sure if she's one of Gage's toys. He growled at her and she hissed right back at him.....

For the last month we have been trying to adopt a new family member and it is much harder then we intended... Just a cute Desert tortoise, that simple, right, wrong! If you do this the right way it is a bit of a process. First a biologist came out to check out our yard, took measurements, and told us where the burrow needed to go. She also told us we needed a watering bowl, special flowers and the shrubs it needs to eat, oh and the gate barrier so it can't dig out, because if they can see out they dig out.... But the burrow was quite a project, you think you can just dig a little and call it good but its quite a bit more, 8ft by 4ft and three feet down on a slope then a channel underneath that, then add 106 degrees outside while Tyler dug the new baby's burrow. It took two days and after its done you put the plywood on and bury it, but first they come out to make sure its all perfect.... I'm going to cry if its not...As soon as we get her I will post the pics...

My family came down for Phenix's 13th birthday. We had the greatest time, my little grandma even came and we took her everywhere. Her favorite place was the gardens at the Bellagio. Tons of tulip, lilys and butterflies.
Grandma even ate sushi for the first time we went to RAW for Phen's B-Day dinner.
