Las Vegas 2011

The week before Thanksgiving, Baptist sent Scotty to Las Vegas for a conference about electronic medical records.  Me & Tanner were NOT excited about him leaving.  He was gone for 3 nights.  We spent one night with Scotty's parents and 2 nights with my parents!!  The rest of the time we were here working on baby girl's nursery and curtains for the living room.  My mom says the only time I wanna make curtains is when I'm pregnant!! Sure hope that's not true!!  We got iphone's for our 5th anniversary so Scotty was able to send us pictures the whole time!! He flew out on a Sunday and got back on Wednesday.  You should've seen me and Tanner at the airport when we dropped Scotty off.  Any onlookers would've thought we were sending him off to war!! Tanner was screaming Daddy and crying so hard and I was balling my eyes out so much I had to pull over - couldn't see to drive!! It was terrible.  So we dropped him off, finally "composed" ourselves (if that's what you wanna call it) and headed to church.  Tanner calmed down as we were coming into Byram and then he saw Scotty's billboard!!!!! And oh my goodness there he went again!!  He got so upset he threw up and I had to take him home and change his clothes for church!!  I think we both took a good nap that afternoon!!


Here's the Vegas Strip from Scotty's hotel window.

Views from the plane.



He was shocked at how big the conference was.

This lion was at the MGM Grande where Scotty stayed.

The gift shop.  Tanner loved getting all these pictures from his Daddy every day!!

Helping me & Mom measure and cut the fabric for curtains!!
This boy loves to help!! And he's good at it too!!

Tanner helping with the hardware!!
Ta-dah!! Here they are!! Thanks Mom & Dad for helping me knock out these projects while Scotty was gone!!  I'll try to post pics of the finished product soon!!

We made Daddy a sign to take to the airport!!  When Tanner saw his Daddy he bolted over to him!!!! Somebody could've easily snatched Tanner right up bc there was no catching him!! That boy wanted his Daddy!!!!
Finally!!!
Tanner was ready for his surprises from Daddy's trip!!

Daddy brought him a lion, a book and a magic wand!!

This is how I found them the next morning!!! I'd say they missed each other just a little!!!  We were so glad he was finally home!!
