Elko Nevada...

Alexis and I came to Elko NV. with Jonathon this time. We left Utah on Wed. and will be here till Wed. I was a little bit worried about leaving my home, dogs, and flowers for a whole week. Jonathon's dad is still living with us so he will be taking care of the dogs and rats.. I didn't really care at all about leaving the rats... lol :) Anyways we weren't able to come before because of my work schedule at Dry Creek. Well they've been really great and let me switch my schedule to where I will only work when Jonathon is home. So I get a whole week off!! And then I'll work the days I'm home. That way Alexis never has to go to a babysitter.. (even though we have been very lucky to be able to always have her stay with family.) She was very ready to just be with her Mom all day! Today she said "Mom, do you not work anymore?" I told her not really.. So I'll have the week off and we'll probably come to Elko with Jonathon as much as possible.. Or we'll stay home and have a whole week of playtime! Jonathon was really worried that we'd come to Elko and be miserable.. but so far we've been able to keep ourselves entertained while Jonathon is working. We are staying in a hotel.. which Alexis just thinks is so much fun!! She thinks she is on vacation :) Every morning after we've showered and gotten dressed.. Alexis and I have walked to the McDonald's down the street for her to get a small fry and play in the play place. We try and stay there for a while so that Jonathon can get some sleep (he is working nights right now) then we walk to the park! Yesterday we went swimming and Alexis had a great time! It still stinks that Jonathon has to come here for a week and then drive home and only be there for a week and do it all over again.. but we've been very blessed to have this job! And Jonathon has the whole week at home to get the Pest Control business going.. so that is a blessing in itself!
