spring thaw!!

We took a family vacation to St. George. This came after we all needed a blast of sunshine and a break from the wheel of life.
We went to a dedicatory of Dad's great great grandfathers statue, a walk around town, shopping at the outlets, and a little hike just above St. George.
My girls are just getting so big & having the time of their lives being outside in the sunshine. I have to admit that I, too, also like the Golden Rays.
On our little hike, Uncle Doug joked that there were bats. Gracie believes this because she saw an empty orange crush can, and "Bats drink orange toke" Didn't everyone know that?

Everyone needed the nice break from life and to soak in the sunshine!!!! I am sure that we will put our vote in to make this an annual trip!!!

good eats

Ok, so this picture is a little old. But it is just so dang cute that I had to post it. This is Big Sister happily eating her licorice (given to her by Aunt Judi) With a face like this how could you not love her.

Camping on Fisher Flats for Memorial Day Weekend.

Luau at Whitney

It is the annual Brown Family Camp-out Reunion. This year it is a luau at Whitney, admist the mosquitos, the dirt and the smoke. What a way to spend the weekend. Big Sister had a little tummy ache (and we are all feeling better now that we are home) but other than that everyone had a great time. Did I mention the broken clavicle??? Big Sister loved playing in the bubbles. Who knew that bubbles could be so dirty??
Isn't it great that to have family that you are excited to hangout with.

home sweet home

TEXAS!!!

This is my first vacation. We went to Dallas & Ft. Worth. It was great & I was very good. We went from one end of the metroplex to the other, and got to see about 900 people.

Big Sister was there for the entertainment.
