~Vegas 2009~

Vegas was a wonderful time this past weekend. We walked around, ate yummy food, watched weird people, and most of all relaxed. Something we haven't done for a while....

It is so enchanting to go to Vegas. The hotels are monstrous, the entertainers are amazing, the streets are packed and the day never seems to end. I love it there.

We did go see David Copperfield which was neat. I got picked to be in one of his illusions and that was quite the experience :)

Jerry seemed to enjoy not having to do anything...he needed that!!

In all, it was a joyous time!

Desperate times...:(

As you may have heard AZ has a 150 million dollar budget cut in the works. What you may not know is that 43 million of that is a cut that directly effects the Developmentally Disabled...this is who I serve directly. Not only do our rates decrease but the amount of help these individuals are receiving will be cut which in turn puts these families at risk for even more heartache and stress. Approximately 29,000 disabled AZ residents will LOSE, yes I said LOSE, their funding. This is huge. These families NEED this service and without it could face unforeseen disruptions in daily life....PLEASE be aware of what you can do as a citizen and resident of Arizona. If you know someone or have a family member with a disability, please attend the Legislative Awareness Day on March 10th, 2009 from 8am-2pm. It is on the Capital Lawn on Washington Street.

This will only get worse before it gets better. Please voice your story and opinions for those who do not have the ability.

Road trip...

We are off to Las Vegas this afternoon for the 3 day weekend and I'm so excited. We have not been on a trip with just the 2 of us for a while now. This trip is to celebrate Valentines Day/anniversary and to relax and chill before all the mayhem occurs in the next few months. I feel as though I have not really "seen" Jerry in many months. He works late and I have been diligently working on wedding duties each evening.

The wedding is coming so fast...I had my second fitting last night which went great! I can't wait to see Jerry's face when he sees me in my dress ::sigh::

So off to the city of sin we go....

Happy V-day everyone :)

1 year already!

I have to give a big HAPPY BIRTHDAY to my handsome, smart, playful and loving nephew Carter Wesley! I can't believe that it has already been a year since you entered this world. I remember that night like it was yesterday :) ::sigh::

Oh how I miss seeing you grow and play but I look forward to seeing your smiling, beautiful face in two weeks!!!

All my love...

Auntie Kelly

6 months already.
