No Place Like Home





We went to Mesquite. Aunt Caitie (Mike's sister) was nice enough to babysit for us. She was willing to do it for the whole week- we lasted four days! After two, I was so ready to see Sean again. It was a nice break though. We ate lots of food and saw "The Dark Knight" and "Hancock-" both were very good.

Our favorite part of the trip was seeing Le Miserables at Tuahcan. It was awesome. We had never been there. We definitely want to make it a tradition- we loved it. Some of the actors had actually been in a few movies and on Broadway!

It was fabulous!

We were glad to be home though! It was sad b/c Sean was confused and hung on to Caitie for dear life! He started crying when I tried to pick him up. It took him a whole 30 minutes to love me again!! Sad, huh? I let him eat tons of sugar and I gave him a lot of attention. Needless to say, he was hyper and very glad we were home. I love this picture. It's like he's saying, "I forgive you and still love you, Mom!"

Glad you got some time away. I know it's hard but we really do need it sometimes...take advantage of it.

Time away from the kids is good...but maybe a week your first time out is a bit too much. You'll get the hang of leaving the kiddos though...it is nice to have a break. Welcome Back!!

Hey! I stumbled upon your blog! Next time you are in the neighborhood you should give us a call! :) I have never been to Tuahcon (sp)either and I would love to go - especially to see Les Miserables. I saw it about 10 years ago in SLC and absolutely loved it. If you want to check out my blog it is:
