Summer Vacation
So, I'm just realizing I wrote this post backwards. I am more and more convinced that there is something to my blonde hair. Anyways...if you want the correct affect start from the bottom up.
Now we are enjoying our time in sunny St. George! This weekend we celebrated my baby brother's 17th birthday and my baby girl's 2nd birthday. Happy birthday to you.
On our way to my grandparents we stopped and visited some our favorite people...Randy, Cathy, and Max. It was great to see them again!
Our next stop was time spent with my Grandma and Grandpa Debenham. We went to the Hogle Zoo. My favorite thing was the rare white alligator. I'd never even heard of it before, but they have an albino alligator. My cousin Alexa hung out with us and was a great help with the kids. If she wasn't only 8 (or maybe she's9?), I'd hire her to be my nanny:)
Here we are on summer vacation. Our first stop was a family reunion with the Willes at Bear Lake, UT. We left our hot humid San Antonio and arrived in a snowing Bear Lake. Everyone else was a bit disappointed, but I enjoyed the snow and cool weather. It was a welcome change. We had an awesome time enjoying family and the mountains. There was lots of fun and games and outdoor activity. We found a patch of snow on the mountainside and were determined to hike to it. We (or should I say Logan and Shelley) carried a sled to the top of the mountain so Preston could sled down the snow. Preston was determined to do it, and he was able to sled about 4 feet down a patch of snow. Was it worth it...sledding in June...most definately! The theme for the reunion was "home for the holidays." We had April Fools Day, Valentines Day, Halloween, and the 4th of July. The picture with all children above is all of the grandkids in their Halloween costumes.

Yea for Summer!
...only now that we have this awesome spouting whale blow-up pool. It has been stinkin' hot here, and this is how we survive the backyard. Preston decided to name it "talkly-man-whale" (maybe he hopes it'll talk to him??). This is a big step for him since most of his other animals are named after their species. His monkey's name is monkey, bear is named bear, etc.
This afternoon we followed some friends to a Joe McDermott concert. Our friends are groupies of his, and I must say he was pretty entertaining. His music is a ton of fun, and the kids love him. This particular concert was on the grounds of the McNay museum. We melted in the heat but took solace in the fact that "talkly-man-whale" was available at home if needs be.

I don't know why this photo spot was all pink and purple with purple squirrels and birds all over...a little odd...maybe artistic....I guess we were at an art museum
