Kaitlyn's cruisin... ALREADY

Cancer can't keep a good man down

Rob and I took a quick trip to Arizona to visit Rob's best buddy - Jason, Peggy Sue and the girls. Although a bit on the skinny side, Jason looked great and seems to be on his way back from the dreadful chemo and radiation he endured to battle cancer. He still has a ways to go, but was looking good and feeling better each day.

The boys hung out and took it easy. They spent like 6 hours playing video games...

Of course, this meant us girls had to go shopping...

Jason also showed off his pride and joy, a silver & black Trans Am (in honor of the Raiders - ew!)

Finally, you know NO trip would be complete without a visit to...

(Rob made me go... HONEST!)

See ya sometime in the summer! Love Ya!

The BIG Apple

Our GIRLS-ONLY trip to New York

Three days in the BIG APPLE!

No trip would be complete without a visit to the

American Girl Store

The girls agree, the most exciting part of our trip was when

Mommy got in a road-rage fight with a local taxi cab driver.

Unfortunately, we weren't able to capture that on

tape. Other than that, a great time was had by all!

It's good to have friends

Always good to be with friends...

Even when they're inanimate objects...

The best part of all (for us anyway) was spending the entire day watching them put it all together!
