Short Sleeves and Sunburns

It has been absolutely georgous in Las Vegas the past couple of days. We have spent the majority of our time outside. We are blessed to have great friends who live in neighborhoods with private parks. We spent time with them yesterday and today. After being out in the sun for a day, I had a burn/tan mark on my neck from my shirt. I wanted to take a picture and put it on the blog to kind of rub in how nice it is here sometimes. That is definetly one of the good things about Las Vegas. You see, I have to focus on the good so I won't get homesick. In these pictures, Aubree and Erick both climbed in the "ball bucket" and were eating chips. Aubree is so good to her siblings. I feel so blessed that Heavenly Father gave her to me!!! When the other kids get hurt, they run to their sister, Aubree, not mom. Aubree is a pretty special little girl.




This is the best babysitter EVER!! They are tearing up the street in front of our house and doing something with the water. Erick has been amazed. He loves to look out the front window and say, "truck". He is just learning how to pronunciate the "k" sound. He is adorable.

Eww, I'm so jealous. I want to go south so bad it's almost killing me. I hope I can talk Cameron into a trip to Vegas soon. My kids have just about had it with jackets and staying inside all day. It just barely hit 50 degrees and we're running to be outside. There's still some ice on the slides at the park, but I think I'll take the kids over anyway just to spite winter. ;)

Amy, I found you on Stacey's blog and thought I would say Hi. I can't believe how big your kids are getting. They are so cute! The weather here in St. George is awesome too. Hope everything is going well for you.

I am so jealous. It has been so cold here this year that Curt has been calling it the North Pole. We got some more snow today--March 2. It's crazy! By the way, your kids are adorable.

Hey Amy. I agree, I'm more of a "blog" person than facebook, but both are putting me in touch with long lost friends. What an adorable family. What are you guys doing in Vegas?

Hey Amy,
I started with the blog thing first, and then signed up on Facebook, and yep it's definately going to have to be one or the other because it's just amazing how many hours you can spend on the internet! I like Facebook to find people, but blogs are more fun for posts and pictures. I will add you to my blog! Love,Darci

I think I need to come for a visit. The weather in Cedar just can't make up its mind. It sounds like you're feeling better too. It was good to see you last time you came. Can't wait 'til the next.
