A weekend away

Chad left this morning on vacation with the company that he works for.  Every year his boss takes the guys that work for him (yes, just the guys.  Not their wives or families :(  ) down to southern Utah to go boating.  Usually they only go down to Sand Hollow, which is pretty close to St. George.  But this year they decided to go down to Lake Mead so that they can drive the hour to Vegas and go wild!  So, since Chad is on vacation I decided that I would go on vacation too.  I decided to come up to my parents house for the weekend.  My poor parents.  My girls are definitely ecstatic about our vacation!  My parents are very gracious to let us be here.  Tomorrow we are going to go shopping (which is always an adventure with 4 little girls) and then we are just going to come back here and hang out.  I'm really excited to spend time with my mom.  She is an extremely busy woman! So, its nice whenever we get to see her.  I'm also glad that I don't have to be home by myself with the girls.  Not that I can't handle the girls, its just that I don't like to be home alone at night.  We don't live on the best street, and it scares me to not have Chad with me.  I know, i'm pathetic, oh well.  I'm glad that Chad is getting this break though.  He definitely deserves a vacation!   He does so much for our family.  And i'm glad that it gave me the opportunity to stay with my parents.

What a bummer that you had to stay behind... But yes, hanging out at your parents house is fun! AND I know your parents love having you over. The girls will have a blast and you'll get some quality time with your mom. Yay!
