Sweet Summertime!

Today I have a LOT of things to be grateful for, that make my life so positive. First on the list is the fact that it is SUMMER! What does this mean? It means no more having to layer ridiculous amounts of clothing just to stay (semi) warm. It means the sun is now out in full blast and I can stop being so pail. AND! It means summer vacations :) This last weekend we were able to travel with my husband's wonderful family to a weekend house they had reserved for the whole family in Las Vegas. Being LDS, Las Vegas does not hold quite the same novelty for me primarily because I do not drink alcohol (ever) and am not a big "partier." However, I do love new things, and I had never been to Vegas before!! The house was beautiful and comfortably fit all 15 adults and 6 grandkids equipped with a pool table and a pool. The weekend was spent laughing at the adorable grandkids doing who knows what, late talks till 3 am and mini day trips like taking a tour of the Hoover Dam. I have always been extremely close to my family and was nervous how I would take to my future in-laws, and how they would take to me! Needless to say, they are incredible people. I loved every minute of this weekend!
