Hotter than Hades

Although it is consistently in the 100's down here, we still seem to be having fun this summer. Especially with such a cute 2 year-old!

She has the cutest facial expressions.

On Saturday, May 31, we met up with my cousin Nathan and his family at the M&M Factory. They moved to Arizona a few months ago, so now they live just two hours away from us.

It was fun to catch up and best of all...we were surrounded by M&Ms!

I am no doubt his favorite cousin. Now that we have that established...

Greg has been working really hard on our backyard. When we moved here the yard was dead with absolutely no grass. Greg got our grass growing and now look at how luscious it is. We all love it and are so proud of him. FYI: B.O. stands for Brick Oven. 

Here is Emily being cute.

Here is Emily "helping" Greg make cinnamon rolls.

Funny story, one night Greg started Emily's bath and told her he would be right back with some toys for her to play with in tub. Well, while he was gone he heard a splash...she had jumped in with her clothes on! Ha ha!

For the 4th of July weekend we had been planing on going to St. George to visit family. The day before we were going to leave our a/c went out in our car. We were pretty discouraged, but determined to go, so we rented a car for $10/day and drove the two hours.

Emily loved seeing her great grandparents and her Burr cousins. She was one happy girl.

Best of all, they just got a pool so we spent a ton of time swimming. You may be wondering why me and Greg are wearing shirts... well, the day before we both got really bad sunburns so we really didn't want it to happen again. 

Here we are with Aubry (Greg's sister) and little Meric.

Me and my favorite girl.

Greg being cool, as always. Happy 4th of July!
