Spring Wrap-up

Ok. Where to begin? I've been putting off posting because I am so far behind. Having hands free with a new baby is part of the challenge, plus we were out of town for the month of April... excuses, excuses, I know! But, finally I am gettin' with the program. So here is the condensed version of the last couple months.

Marc did a rotation in Richfield, UT during the month of April. We stayed at my fam's cabin which is not too far away from there. Strange place to do a rotation, you say? Well, yes, but it came highly recommended from a classmate of Marc's who is from the area and did the same rotation some months ago. And a good rotation it was. By far the best one he has had so far. In fact, Marc keeps scaring me with hints at liking it enough to want to go back there to practice someday. We'll see though. That's still years away.

So, on the way up there, we crossed paths with Dave, Marc's younger brother who sells school buses. He let Caleb and Greg ride around with him in the parking lot in the bus that he was delivering. They loved it.

Here's the kiddos at the cabin. Greg and caleb are really good brothers and have been great with Josie.


Marc was really busy. So much so that we left him there at the cabin to fend for himself for part of the time while we went up to stay with my family. (A whole month at the cabin with three kids by myself? One can only survive for so long!) But, finally at the end of the month, Marc got a few days off to hang out and take Greg four-wheeling.


We also blessed Josie while we were up in Utah because both our families are already there. We just did it at my parents house and it went great, except that Josie did scream like a lion cub the whole time Marc was giving her the blessing.


And lastly, Greg turned five so we celebrated with the family the night before we left to come back to Vegas.

So there's the wrap-up. Now we are back in Vegas and it is getting hot fast! But it's nice to be back at our house. Greg and Caleb still miss being at the cabin and so does Marc for that matter. (This month's rotation hasn't been as exciting and he has to drive in traffic everyday instead of looking for elk on his way to work.)
