Early Birthday in Vegas

We went to Vegas this weekend. The drive on Friday night was a piece of cake...yesterday coming home was a different story! It was a great weekend though and well worth the crying, whining and complaining on the way home! We celebrated Matt's birthday early with Grandpa and Grandma Bennett. Matt even blew out his candles with a little help from Grandma. Matt LOVES cupcakes! I have big plans to make him an Elmo cake for his birthday on Sat. I'll post pictures. Karl and I got out for a few good runs and we went out to the Bellagio after the boys went to sleep on Saturday night. We looked at the gardens and ate crepes. It should have been a really fun date but we were both so tired!! It was nice to get out for awhile though.
Matt was so excited on Friday (3/7) to go see Grandpa and Grandma. He fell asleep in the morning on a pile of his books then was too hyped up to take a nap in the afternoon. Poor mom!! We went for a hike this morning at the Desert Preserve which is a couple miles from our house. Matt and Micah are so tired from the exciting weekend and being outside this morning they have been napping (in their beds) for the past 3 hours!!
