Veteran's Day Weekend

Well after Paul was taken of the list for a det for an air show down in Vegas. We canceled our plans of going to Vegas for a week. Last minute late Saturday night we got a call from Paul's parents saying the family was going down to St. George and would love for us to come. We rushed around doing laundry, homework, and packing and left early Sunday morning.
We had such a blast and even though it was a ton of driving for being there for a few days it was worth every minute. Paul and I had a break from parenting between Grandma Jan and Sydney's Aunts. They take turn telling her which one is her favorite. Paul and I had the opportunity to play with our nephew's and run a few errands with out Sydney making it the first time we both left Sydney; man that moment was packed with anxitey. On Tuesday morning before we headed out for our eight hour drive we went to the St. George Temple and got a few family pictures. It was such a great weekend we wouldn't have been able to make it with out the help of family which we are so thankful for and owe them big time. It was good to also celebrate the service of Paul and his Grandpa for Veterans day.

What a great holiday weekend. Thanks for all of the service our military buddies do and for all those who service. We love you all!!

I am glad you guys got to go and had fun. I love the pictures. I am glad I am not the only one who has a hard time leaving the little one.
