My mom was able to spend a week with us right before I went back to school. We really enjoyed having her, and the girls loved/ warmed up to her from the minute she gifted them ADORABLE sunglasses. We had so much fun....
We visited our old neighbors from Vegas that now live in Pyramid Lake. It was also really cool being at the lake because all the "burners" were driving out to burning man and you could see all the funky vehicles (and people) driving out there. ...

on the way there, Cadence spent the whole time on her phone :-) |
We also ended up going to the Duck Races downtown. This is a unique event where they release over 10,000 yellow rubber ducks into the river, and the first and last ones win a prize. It raises money for the humane society here, and there are so many fun events to participate in.

I REALLY wanted to adopt this dog (big soft spot for animals), but he already had a home |

Nana also helped out with Claire's 3rd Birthday, and it was nice having her here for a party since she lives so far away. :-)
(more on the party and Claire's milestones in a future post)
