it's over already?

i married into a perty darn cute family. lishes came to salt lake to visit for a few days before memorial day weekend, and then we all drove to vegas baby for some sunshine and summertime for the long weekend. painted toes, on a towel, next to a pool with great food and fun people is how it went. and i loved it!



jaime is a handy chef and was up for baking some oreo cupcakes i've been wanting to try. a few weeks ago my mom took haley and i to a cupcake baking class at thanksgiving point taught by sara voortmeyer. jaime and i used her recipe and they were a total hit.





we golfed at an executive course (par 3 course, or course that is so much shorter/easier/funner than the real deal) in salt lake with everyone friday while brad worked. we played a scramble which made it so fun, and my team even used a few of my hits. oh, and the women's clubs we rented were adorable and baby blue. this could be the beginning of jared converting me to yet another sport. it's starting to rub off on me. i think it's fun to hit the ball, and swing with the driver and irons. eh - we'll see.




vegas was really wonderful. the highlight may have been seeing my niece alexa in her 8-months or so of life. unfortunately i somehow have no pictures of her. fail. i did break from laying out long enough to catch the boy's in a game of surface ball.

and just like that - it's already over. i hope your memorial day weekend was relaxing and filled with family and friends! now back to work until the next holiday...
