So while in Vegas, the girls all of a sudden cared about the play structure in my parent's backyard. In fact, we kinda didn't see them the whole week. I thought, "I got to get me one of these!"

In other breaking news, Kennedy has never had a hair cut. So her hair is long. Really long. We talked about how it was long enough to donate it to someone that does not have any hair if she wanted. She has been toying with the idea for sometime now, but after a recent visit to my sister-in-laws work at Shriners hospital, she had made up her mind. She met a little girl who was badly burned and her face was pretty disfigured. I had not really prepped the kids for this and was hoping they would not say anything in front of her like, "Why does her face look like that." Instead my kids stepped it up once again, and through the eyes of sweet children did not really seem to notice. The only comment afterwards was, "A fire took her hair, huh mom." A few days later Kennedy announced that that girl could have her hair. With tears in my eyes, we did this....
