Viva!

Well we made it home from Vegas and what a wonderful time was had! :)
This is my cute crazy husband and my fav cousin Louie!
Jade and Louie roped in the #13. They had to rope on Wednesday and they caught all 3 so then they had to sit around all week and wait to rope one more time on Saturday! How scary! They were 7th high call and ended winning 4th place!! Which is fabulous! Here is the catcher! They both won $25,000!!!!I'm not one for hunting or deer heads hanging on the wall or any of that sorts but this deer is so crazy, I thought I'd show you!
This is the Putters (Connie and Danny)! They are so much fun and we are so glad that they came with us! Vegas wouldn't be the same without them and they are such good troopers!

Here is mom and Connie sitting at the arena where we spent every morning except for Sunday!
Louie and Chels after the big win!
The hubs and me!
I feel bad, I have hardly any pictures of our trip but we did have a great time! We went shopping to all of the Cowboy Christmas' and had I known Jade was gonna win me some money I woulda bought a lot more stuff! :) I'm glad to be home and away from the smokey smell of casino's. We walked alot and I got soo tired a few days but everyone took great care of me and it was so much fun!!!
I'm so proud of Jade and Louie and thankful for the blessings that we receive! We are so lucky! And in case anyone was wondering... I didn't gamble once!! (Jade did plenty for the both of us:))
Well, officially 6 more weeks supposedly until this little angel of mine arrives. I'm hoping for an angel anyways which means I want him to be more like me than his dad :) but we will see what happens! Starting to get nervous for being a mommy but I'm just grateful I have family close and a great husband!

dude you're lucky, but don't be spending too much of that money before baby. you'll need it! mikayla is 6 months old and we just got done paying her bills at the beginning of this month. it's sooooo expensive!

The program is called photo scape. There is a link on my blog to the page where you can down load it for free to your computer. It has different layouts to choose from and different borders. I think that it is fun because you can show more pictures with out taking up a lot of space.
