So it was our first holiday in Las Vegas, and true to Romriell tradition we were running late-(grandma and grandpa were coming) All Romriells were scurrying about trying to cook dinner, clean the house and chase the children. In the spirit of multi-tasking Paige was placed in the tub to wash one layer of dirt off, Taylor was playing Playstation, Brooklyn and Jill went to Wal-mart for soap and other forgotten Items. About halfway down the soap isle I got a frantic call to come home"RIGHT NOW" it seems that as Todd was cleaning it started raining in the kitchen through the lights (yes those lights in the picture)-, not from the clouds but from Paiges "swimming pool" After mopping up about 2 inches of water we enjoyed a lovely thanksgiving feast to the sound of drip drip drip on the tile in the kitchen-yes the "rain" continued for a while!!!! We did have a good time with grandma and papa, and drug them all over Las Vegas!!! However typical Jill forgot the camera-all well!!!

Taylor was given a "superhero" award at his school!! This award is given to students who exhibit "heroic" qualities, and they are nominated by fellow students and teachers. It was quite the ceremony the principal was in a tux and they had the "Scintas" come and perform. They have a show on the strip(that is who Taylor is standing next to) He has adjusted well to his new school!!!!
People always ask what I do now that I am not working

FYI-The first song on our playlist is the song we sing when we drive down the strip. ENJOY!!!!!
We have had a CRAZY Halloween week here in the "valley". It started last Saturday when Todd's company had a party at Springs Preserve. It is kind of a nature area, and they made all kinds of scarecrows out of all kinds of things-that's one of the scarecrows that Brooklyn is posing with. Sunday Todd and I had to talk in church-the church wasn't even struck by lightning!!! Wednesday the kids dressed up again for the ward party, Thursday they again wore costumes for school parties. Friday was a day off of school for "Nevada Day" and then that night we went Trick-or-Treating (in shorts and flip- flops). As you can see our kids will be on sugar high for quite some time!!!
