Childrens Parade
The girls were able to be in the Childrens Parade on Saturday. Our stake primary decided to be in the parade togehter. The girls were very excited to get to be IN an actual parade. The best part was that my Dad is a primary teacher so he got to walk with them. Which made me happy and Bailey too. They did so well and had a lot of fun. My friend Maureen and I had fun dodging candy and waving and cheering for our kids!

My Dad
Fathers Day!
Until Today
Today I actually went to church. I knew that it was fathers day so in Honor of my father I bucked up and went to church. And I remembered why I don't like to go. I fought with the girls most of sacrament and hardly got to listen to the speakers and it wasn't enjoyable. The bad part came when the primary went up to do their musical number. Bailey was too scared to go so Laira went alone. I am always so proud of her when she gets up and does stuff like that. She got up there and sang 2 songs to her Dad. Her Dad that wasn't there, her Dad who doesn't care. She would look at me and blow me a kiss or wink. And I just thought, while tears ran down my face. How lucky am I that I get to have all this, too bad for him if he chooses to not be a part of it.

Our trip
Well it all started out well. I picked up the rental car and we were off. We made great time to Vegas and the girls didn't fight.. that much. We went to the strip and played at the Bellagio and walked to MGM to see the Lion.. asleep. That was a long walk, and both the girls told me their legs were broken by the time we were heading back. So we stopped at the M&M store and watched the show. As we got back to the Bellagio were we parked we saw the fountains. Both the girls loved them. Laira was hysterically giggling and everyone was looking at her. I thought it was cute. She loved them so much.
We spent the night at my cousin Heather's house and went to dinner and I didn't find out until the next day when I was in Mesa that I left my Debit card at the Applebees in Vegas. So that sucked big time.
All in all we had a great time in Mesa. We would go back again in a heartbeat. We were sad to have to head home. Our trip home was mostly uneventful. We stayed at Heathers house in Vegas again. I got my debit card and we headed the rest of the way home the next morning. Everything was going fine until we got to Beaver. Then we hit a big dark scary storm. There was tons of hail and we were sliding all over. At one point I had to yell for laira to hear me over the storm and asked her to say a prayer. She said several and we made it through the storm. Then a car flung a rock into the windshield and caused a huge crack. so I knew that I was going to have to buy a new windshield for the rental car. When I turned the car in they told me the windshield was going to be about 200.00 so that doubled the price of the rental car. I was walking to my car crying and when I got there I was shocked to find that the passenger window was smashed out and my stereo with my new Ryan Shupe and the Rubber band CD were gone. I couldn't contain the sobs and more. So I went inside and called the police. They came out and did what they do and it all came down to it was no ones responsibility to pay for. even though the rental company made me park where I did even though I didn't want to park there. And the guy told me that the car would be fine there. grrrrrrrrrrr I have been told my the officer and my parents to call corporate. But I have been struck with some stupid stomach stuff that put me in the hospital but i will post about that later because my kids are whining for lunch. *sigh*
