Yeah, well. We WERE gonna be there. Now we're not.
Nessa's mother was supposed to watch Gavin while we were in Vegas, but Nessa's father broke his hip and is now wheelchair bound. On top of that, he's also got emphazima (sp?) and is on oxygen pretty much 24/7. So, her mother won't be able to come up and watch him while we're gone. We toyed with the idea of her bringing him down to their house, but the logistics (along with the workload of having to help out Nessa's dad AND keep track of a crazed 2 year old in an unfamiliar house) were mind boggling. We toyed with the idea of taking him with us. Unfortunately, Vegas with a 2 year old can be exhausting and not as much fun for the parents. Toss in the fact that we'd have to fly 1st class to get out there, and he can't even get on the plane.
So, that leaves us with the final option: withdraw totally and hope for better luck next year. Kinda sucks since we were both looking forward to being there again (last time we were able to make it out was 2004). So, good luck to all those attending and have fun. Drink a few extra for us and hopefully we'll see ya next year.
