MEYERS FAMILY VACATION...VEGAS STYLE

This past weekend Savanna and I joined daddy as he headed to St. George for work. Once at the hotel on Thursday, we asked Savanna if she was enjoying her vacation, to which she replied, "I'm not on vacation yet, only mommy and daddy are". I guess as long as we are in the same state, vacations aren't real to this little girl. But I am sure it changed once her and daddy jumped in the swimming pool and played for a little while. On Friday we wasted some time by shopping at the outlet mall, Savanna found matching dresses for her and her baby sister to wear once she makes her debut in 7 weeks. We then joined the rest of the Meyers family for a little family trip. We met up with them at Great Grandma Meyers house, this was actually the first time that all 5 of her great grandchildren were there at once. I'm sure she enjoyed getting to see how big they all are getting, we were just sad that we couldn't get over to the rehab center to see grandpa. We are sure grateful for all of their love and support, and miss not getting to see them too often. After our visit with grandma, we loaded up the vehicles and headed out to LAS VEGAS. The kids couldn't get to the swimming pool fast enough once we arrived. The water was very refreshing to this pregnant woman, and the kids enjoyed it as well. Friday nights dinner consisted of The Cheesecake Factory, then movies in the hotel room. Saturday we spent more time at the swimming pool, and then the kids were ready for naps. Ambur opted to stay back in the room while the rest of us adults went and ate at the Bellagio Buffet.....KING CRAB LEGS!!!! After dinner we ran back to the hotel and picked Ambur and the kids up to head out for some family fun. We tried going to Circus Circus, but it was packed and looking pretty dirty, so we opted for M&M World and the arcade below it. I'm pretty sure that it was stinkin' hot outside, and I was melting away each passing minute. The kids had fun playing for about an hour, then we started to head back to the hotel. Steve, Savanna, Grandma Mary, and I stopped at Coke World and snapped a picture with the Coke Bear. Savanna was fine at arms length and when he patted mom on the head. Once back to the room, the kids ran around for a little bit, then they all started to cash out for the night. The adults sat around and chatted until the early morning hours. Sunday we packed up and headed home while the rest of the clan stayed until Monday. It was a fun vacation, but I think I need a vacation just to recoup. We love getting to spend time with the Meyers side of the family! Thanks for such a fun trip!

FUN AND CRAZY WEEK

The past week has been fun but then crazy as well. Steve and I have found a home that we are currently under contract to purchase FINALLY. If all goes well we will be moving in around the 24th of July. That will give us three weeks to get everything organized and settled before our little one arrives. I'll have to post pictures of the house later when I can get some good ones. We've spent some time outside playing croquet, which Savanna did pretty well at. Our ward had a summer party at the swimming pool over the weekend and Savanna was so excited to get to play in the water! She had fun splashing mom and dad, and did great going down the slides by herself. Saturday Steve spent most of the day out fishing with his buddy Brandon. They really spanked the fish and had a great time even during the rain. Here are a couple of pictures of their catches of the day. Sunday of course we celebrated Father's Day with a family party. Two of my siblings along with the families were unable to attend because they are having fun at Bear Lake. But the rest of us had a great time talking and the cousins had fun playing. We missed having Kamy with us (she was home with the flu). But it I think it was a pretty enjoyable time for everyone else. Then Savanna did what she likes best, snuggling with her daddy! What will this next week bring....more craziness!

Check out their website on Etsy and if you'd like to purchase contact them. They are both so creative and no two shirts are alike in the material that is used.

BOYS WILL BE BOYS part 2

Steve along with Das, Alma, and Ammon headed out to the West Desert for a little fun. Steve had purchased some small explosives and wanted to see if they could blow up an old adbandoned car with them. The video will show what happened when the gun went off and the explosives ignited. The rest of the pictures show just some of the fun that the boys had with Steve's guns. It was good for Steve to get out, we've had a very stressful couple of weeks, and I'm sure it was relaxing for him to spend some time with friends and his guns!
