Why I Love Vegas

It's still March, and last week we went to the park a few times, went on several long walks with the kids in perfect weather, went swimming, and went waterskiing at Lake Mead. It's been so much fun, and it makes me excited for SUMMER!

At the pool...


Why swim when you can suck on the can of sunscreen?

Wednesday our friends that Jeff grew up with , the Crossmans, came into town for a youth trip. They brought their boat, and we met them at Lake Mead that afternoon. The weather was perfect...mid 80's with no wind. The kids loved being on the boat.

They were all smiles!Lexi loved the Crossmans
The water was pretty cold, but we decided to ski anyway. I got in one nice, long run, and I'm still sore from it! Haven't used those muscles in a while!Captain Jack!
We forgot how much we love boating. Maybe we'll have to go to Powell this year.
Also, since we're so convenientely located between Utah and California, we got to see my parents twice: wednesday night/thurs morning on their way to Cali and again Sunday afternoon on their way back. It was so fun to see them, The kids were in heaven!

So jealous of your lake trip! That looks like a blast. I wonder if I could even still get up on skis?

And you will have to come swimming again! The water is 88! Yum!
