Utah Escape

Since Phoenix is starting to warm up, the girls and I decided to go to Utah for a couple of weeks to escape the heat. And did we ever! I got off the plane and just about froze. I had to change into pants on our way to lunch. Kennedy wasn't sure what to think of it either. For the first couple of days she wouldn't go outside without her jacket and hood on. But it warmed up and we had a great time swinging, jumping, and driving the power wheels in Grandpa's back yard with the cousins.

My sister pointed out that in recent pics of the girls together (ya know, where poor Lucy is forced to sit on Kennedy's lap), Lucy looks almost as big as Kennedy does. Sure she's got a little chubs on her but here is proof that she is, in fact, quite a bit smaller than K Jane.



Most of the time I really love living in Phoenix but after seeing how much fun the girls had with their cousins, it made me wish we lived closer to home. However, I'm sure I'll be changing my tune come winter.

For our second week of vacation we met Papa and our good friends, the Woffinden's, in St. George for Memorial Day weekend. We all missed Rex so much...poor guy couldn't even go to the bathroom without Kennedy asking 15 times where he was. Between four nap schedules we didn't get out of the house much but we sure had a great time eating lot's food, swimming, staying up late playing games and watching our 2 year old's fight (I mean play).

Our cute babies and possibly future husband and wife.
I am keeping my fingers crossed!

Grandpa's scooter was a hit!

I even got to see my "St. George Family" minus Amy
and our good friends the Wadsworth's, it was great!

Now we are back home in the sweltering heat. It's going to be a long summer!
