Weekends can be VERY long at our house. Our boys are at that non-stop whining phase when Daddy is home; they are constantly fight each other for his attention. To ease the stress, we try to get out as much as possible. This past weekend, we decided to check out Sea Life Aquarium (at Mills Mall). Don't know if it was COMPLETELY worth the money, but it WAS fun. The boys were enthralled by all of the different creatures.
I had the chance to visit with a bunch of girlfriends from high school the weekend before last. During the day on Saturday, we had a play date at the park. During the evening, we had a dinner date at Olive Garden followed by a girls' night. SO fun. It was great seeing you girls!
I spent 4 days last week in Vegas. Sunday through Wednesday. IT. WAS. INCREDIBLE. I was at a professional photographers' conference (WPPI) with my friend Angie. Photography; morning, noon, & night. Classes. Trade show. Application. We averaged about 5 hours of sleep each night; all other time was spent on photography. I learned so much that there are times when I STILL think my brain might explode from the overload. While the day was great because it was full of so much information & learning, the nights were better because we experimented with our cameras on the Strip. Like... for hours (hence not much sleep). We saw a lot of... interesting... things. And by interesting, I mean down right freakish.
