Patty and Rooty come to the Valley!

Welcome Patty and Rooty!  This was Rooty's first visit (and Patty's 3rd!), and we were so excited to have them here.  Rooty knocked himself out with projects galore, and Mom helped me launch my 31 gifts business and was a huge helper around the house.  And yes, we managed to find some fun along the way!
First, a trip to the lake to show Rooty the beach and Emerald Bay.  It was a little chilly, but still beautiful.

 Our old pal, Kyle Petty came to Reno with his annual Charity Ride.
The boys loved sitting on his bike.  And of course, Gunnar asked at least a million questions.

Kyle entertained us with his story from Willett, California.  Apparently it's the "green" capital of the world, and the mayor shared some of his "green" with Kyle.  Ask me details.  It's awesome!

Herschel Walker was on the ride and was one of the nicest people we have ever met.  Gunnar promptly told him that he liked to ride his Gator, to which Herschel replied, "I'm a Dawg fan... don't know about those Gators!"  Haha!
 We capped off their visit with date night on the Safari Rose cocktail cruise.  The crew was amazing, and we had the boat almost to ourselves!






We even went a little crazy and stopped by Montbleu to try our luck at the casino.  No luck, but good entertainment!
Thanks, Patty and Rooty for a wonderful visit!  We love you!
