what a weekend!

Not only did we have the father and sons camp out this weekend... but we also got some late night visitors. Brett (Aaron's brother--if you couldn't tell already) and his super cute wife KT came to Vegas for the Country Music Awards at the MGM. They aren't exactly country music fans, but Brett (soon to be famous Mr. Hollywood director) was working backstage at the awards. He got KT and I backstage passes for the rehearsal on Saturday (thanks for staying home with the kids, Aaron!) It was a fun day.. we got to see all the free gift bags full of awesome stuff that is thrown at the big time stars-- we also did a little shopping and had lunch at CPK. It was my first time eating there and for a second I thought everyone was talking about Kentucky Fried Chicken rather than California Pizza Kitchen. Obviously, I am not in the cool crowd just yet.

Saturday night, after Brett was finished with rehearsals, the four of us went out to dinner at a yummy Italian restaurant. Old men were playing jazz music and a guy at the bar really wanted us to pose with this huge bottle of wine... so we did. The food was delicious and the company was even better. I really love these two and wish we could party all the time.. Thanks for the quick visit and the good laughs.

I love when family visits! Glad you had a great time. Crazy indeed that Carter is your new bishop. When I heard a few weeks ago I had to give him a call and razz him a bit, but you are exactly right, he will do awesome.
