a much needed mini vacation

Scott has been so busy with school and work but had a little break so we decided to take advantage of the free time by heading down south to Mesquite to visit Paul and Kaytie. They have a beautiful little condo and we had a blast eating good food, swimming, playing games, taking rides on the golf cart (Paul manages the the grounds crew at a mesquite golf course), and just taking time for a little R&R. We also went down to las Vegas and visited Candise, Jarom, and Eliza Jane.

Scott and Jack were probably fish in another life

Relaxin' Jackson

Jack and Eliza Jane love Paul and Kaytie...they are definitely the fun aunt and uncle!

I had to post this great farmers tan Paul is sporting, I guess that's what happens when your job requires you to be outside all day in the sun.

This is what happens when a 20 month old is getting sick of the 4 hour car ride...desperate times call for desperate measures, hence the laffy taffy. It did buy us the last 40 minutes of the car ride though!
