Reno...Spring Break 2011














Another Mayfield road trip, destination: Reno! We made it despite the cold, snowy weather and a long drive in the twilight zone. According to Steve, no problem...a one day trip. I can't complain, he drove the entire trip and we are all in one piece, back home, safe and sound. Thank goodness for the power of prayer. And thank goodness we never had to bring out the chains to travel through the mountains. Maybe it was our good luck Travelocity gnome, ha ha. The kids had their charged ipods, charged phones and it looks like Jordan was enjoying a little light reading in the Seventeen magazine. Was a good trip but note to self: plan a warmer destination next time!
















together time








Hang-ing out together...checked out Circus Circus and ate the Awful, Awful burger which we thought was awesome, awesome.
























University of Nevada Reno




Nevada's preview day was called Nevada Bound... I don't know if Jordan is Nevada bound but he did like this school despite the cold, wet and snowy day we had. A couple days ahead of this he was able to meet the baseball coach and see the university facilities. Does he look like he belongs to the Wolf Pack? He definetely does not want to become a Raider like Sydney, so she will just need to grin and bear it.

Prom


Sweet! Jordan is Mr. Social so dressing up and going out and about with his friends is second nature. He and his date do look good. Thank goodness it is not raining...that will make a much better night out. They are dining at a friends(let's hope nothing lands on his white shirt, vest or tie)and then are off to Portland's Tiffany Center. He has many memories to make tonight. I can't wait to hear details of the evening...that's if he shares. I'm hopeful.

Baseball

It's that time of year again...baseball has started and league play has begun. Glencoe was the team of the week and we were able to get onto the fields. The rain IS still falling and the wind IS still blowing but with a few layers, gloves and a blankie you can bear it.
