Secret gardens at the Mirage






We went to the Mirage to the secret garden where they have the dolphin research center and the large cat exhibits. We got to see the trainers working with the dolphins and saw the rare white tigers and white lions as well as regular lions, tigers, and jaguars.



Swimming in Vegas











Travis, Ted, Lauren, Maddie, and Meryn loved the swimming pool at the time shares. They spent many hours playing in the water.

Long time no post

It has been awhile since I posted. The boys both went to a sports camp. Ted went to USC water polo camp and Travis went to O-D football camp where he won an award and was named to the Youth All American team.

Ted went to Idaho by himself and stayed with his cousins and grandma and grandpa.

We then went to a family reunion in Vegas.

Boys had 4 weeks of swim lessons they are both in pre-competitive (level 6) swimming.

Ted went to Junior Olympics for water polo. His team took 5th.

Travis has started football. They had their first scrimmage last night and it was not pretty. It looks like he will be the star on a losing team again. He has been turned into a running back which he is not sure he likes. He has been moved from linebacker to free safety and complained his teams would stand around in his way and he could not make the tackle. Truthfully the defense made very few tackles and the offense made very few blocks. The life of 7 and 8 yr old football.

I will try to get some phots posted in the next few days. I just downloaded the camera and need to back up the computer.
