I can not believe what month it is...

How on earth is is May? Spring took a long time coming this year. I liked it for several reasons. I love winter, for one thing and we got a bit of snow this year. Also we got to go to Las Vegas and if Spring would have come early like last year I would be way behind on planting. 

     Last year at this time my irises and peonies not only had bloomed but were all dead and mushy. This year they had not even bloomed so hopefully they will last longer. I transplanted quite a few things last year and most of them have lived and are growing.  I have planted a few things but mostly just flowers. I planted peas twice but the chickens got the first planting and we will see if the second planting worked in a few days.
   

This tickles me.

We did go to Vegas for Spring break and had a great time. We got to see My In-laws and even my Brother Andy and his Wife Casey came up from Colorado to see us. It was fun and really nice to visit with everyone. I wouldn't mind going for a grown up weekend sometime. Right before we left for Vegas it snowed like 6 inches. This was nearly April!

Snow makes everything pretty.

Beautiful snow in April.

We went to some fun places in Las Vegas and one of them was the Sigfield and Roy Dolphin and Big Cat Sanctuary. Mason decided to let a statue eat him.

The hotel we stayed at was called the Platinum and it was very nice. It was actually a condo with a kitchen and a huge tub. 

The view from the pool on the roof at the Platinum.

Mmmm, Hot tub and pool at the Platinum.

The Bellagio

Inside Cesar's Palace.

The Bellagio water show is the coolest thing.

     Another thing that we did since the last time I updated was to celebrate Jack, Craig and Mason's Birthday. We went bowling for Mason's birthday and Went out for Crab legs for Jack and Craig's.

Mason's Doctor Who Tardis cake, Even the paper was edible.

Jack is eating the weeping angel.

The Tardis cake was so cool and the weeping angel was creepy.

So...What else happened  so far? I came outside and found my cat, Zombie, looking for her dinner apparently.

Sometimes I think cats may be evil.

So pretty much I will be spending the next month doing lots of yard work, cleaning the house (maybe) and teaching Mason.
