Summer

A wonderful trip to Utah and lots of trips to the neighborhood pool. Ahhh, summer!

San Antonio and Wicked!

Bev was kind enough to come to Houston in June to watch Kate while Jason and I went to San Antonio to see Wicked. It was so nice to spend some time sans toddler! Quiet dinners, calm shopping trips and sleeping in! Well actually, I never was able to sleep past 8 AM, but oh well. We stayed in a cute hotel right by the Alamo and ate on the River Walk every day. I really love the River Walk. It's so pretty and the perfect place to people watch. And Wicked was so good! I loved the music and thought the adaptation of the book was done quite well. The only pictures I got were of some caverns we visited, but they were really neat. It was a different experience from Mt. Timpanogos. I remember being really cold there but the ones in San Antonio were hot and humid! The camera died when we went on a "safari" so I didn't get a picture of the ostrich that came right up to the car. Maybe next time. Thanks Bev for an awesome trip! And I know Kate had fun with you.

Tragic

Here are before and after pictures from our backyard. We knew that someday the trees would be torn down, but it is still sad to see them go. At least we had a year and a half to enjoy them, and they did leave one! Goodbye trees, you will be missed (except when you fall on our house).
