Since my last post, we have gone on a few fun trips:
March: We went to Vegas for DJ's B-day. It was fun...from what I can remember, and not for the reason you're thinking! I strained my whole left lat of my back muscle a few weeks prior to our little trip, and due to me not being able to NOT exercise and NOT walk around all day at work and NOT do daily chores, it had only gotten worse when we woke up from our first night in Vegas. (Apparently there is such a thing as a bed that is TOO soft!) So I had to take a muscle relaxer, and having never taken one before really, I took two thinking it would just relax my muscles to be able to walk around--I thought WRONG. We took a drive down the strip and I was sloshed and ready for a 4 hour nap by the time we got to the other end of Vegas Blvd. Poor DJ had to miss out on going to the Pawn Stars pawn shop! After that 4 hour nap I was great though! So glad we stayed in a hotel with in home food and entertainment. I allowed myself to go on rides (I know, probably not great for my back). Got to do a little gambling--and no I am not cool like the people on movies who win enormous amounts of money by putting in a quarter to the machine =-(.
Our view from the Stratosphere Suite...Not really, just the view from the top balcony which was the only place we could go without me crying in pain!
Just us two =-)
Gotta stop at the sign!
Trying to have some fun with my sad, sad back!
April: Jack and I went to Seattle with my Mom, Dad, and 4 younger siblings to visit my Aunt Patty and Uncle Jimmy and their 2 kids for Easter. DJ had to miss out since he had to work, and it was too bad--my Aunt Patty and Uncle Jimmy are GREAT hosts! My Grandma and Grandpa from Cali got to come visit too, so it was really fun being around so much family for Easter!
Jack and his bunny ears...he loved them! (Look at those baby blues!)
Cousin Maddy and Jack on The Duck (Bus/Boat...super fun!)
My little sis and I on The Duck, freaking out.
The real Space Needle!
Jack, bustin up with his fake laugh.
LOVE this little guy!
May was pretty relaxed...we decided to get some yard work done. By "we" I mean DJ for the most part. I like to do yard work...for about 30 minutes at a time. (Before and After pictures will be posted hopefully before Fall!)
I will get to our June and July adventures in my next post, so you aren't overwhelmed with information...assuming you're not already =-).
