Morton Madness

Friday morning we headed back out to the pool and got another cabana.  Justin, Chad, Scott and Pat went to play golf so the girls and Matt stayed behind at the pool.   We got a great deal on the cabana the second day because we were with Matt and he ALWAYS gets good deals because of some error :)   We decided to leave the pool and go shop for a little while before heading out for dinner.  We did not even shower and OF COURSE saw Eva LaRue from All My Children and CSI Miami in the Chanel store.  Nori and I went up and talked to her and she was super nice.  So, don't mind us, we smell like sun screen and sweat!   In front of the Chandelier Bar Dinner at Holsteins again... When I opened my email I saw that Luke had sent me a message.  When I read it my heart melted! and then there was this one...   After dinner we grabbed a cab and headed to downtown Vegas aka...

We decided to get a cabana for the day so we would not melt and turn into lobsters.  Justin and I had to go and sit through a seminar for a time share for a couple of hours so that was a whip but worth is since we got a free hotel for the trip.  We went and met up with everyone at the pool.  Lia and Scott showed up after their THREE hour lay over in Minnesota.   After the pool we headed to STK for some dinner.   Back to the Runges room for some drinks before the limo picked us up at 9:30 for Nori's surprise for Matt.   Justin told Matt he got us a limo for the night to take us out.  The limo was really a curtesy limo from The Little White Wedding Chapel so Matt and Nori could renew their vows.  We knew there could not be alcohol in the limo so Justin was telling everyone to drink up.  Matt could not figure out why Justin kept saying to drink up.  We just knew that Matt was going to think...

Side note...In true Morton fashion...  We are leaving for the airport at 9:30 Wed. morning and at 5:10 pm Tuesday evening Seth came downstairs and he was COVERED head to toe in a rash.  It was not a little rash it was ALL over his ENTIRE body.  He literally just broke out within a matter of minutes.  Of course is was after 5:00 and the doctor was closed and we were leaving town the next morning.   We took him to Acute Kids and the doctor said that he saw one blister in his mouth and it was most likely hand, foot and mouth.  Of course now that the rash has appeared he is no longer contagious!  There was not ONE sign of him being sick, no fever and no weird behavior.  So, I called my inlaws and told them to be on the look out for Sophia breaking out.  Thank goodness she never did... yet! IT IS FINALLY HERE!!!  We have been waiting for this trip for about 9 months.  We had a late morning flight out.  I dropped the littles...

We took the kids to see Peepaws grave today and to put flags out.  

Today Luke turned NINE!  I cannot believe it... Meemaw and Pops came over and brought him a cake and some gifts.  We all headed to dinner at Salsa, birthday boys choice.  He ordered shrimp tacos.  Happy Birthday Lukie!
