Vegas Baby, Vegas

Andy's in Vegas with the guys. He left early Saturday and will return home in 2 more days. We've kept ourselves busy, but it's not the same as when Dad's with us. Sure, we did our regulars: went to Six Flags and the pumpkin patch and church, did some crafts, had movie night and visted with friends, but without Dad with us, there's a small void.

Dane sang in church this past Sunday and wore his first tie; I had to buy a clip-on because I don't know how to tie one. I can guarantee there wouldn't have been a clip-on if Dad was home. But did anyone care or even notice? No! And Dane was proud to dress like Daddy.
