not this cute anymore!
We spent the past week partying in Vegas with Aaron's parents who came for Spring Break. Some of the fun included a trip to Spring Mountain Ranch (pictured above), Circus Circus, swimming!, staying up late talking, the boys having a "sleepover" with their grandparents, Krispie Kreme donuts, General Conference, Easter baskets, new clothes, playing with the baby, etc. There are lots of pictures to upload, but I am currently folding laundry and packing for our own Spring Break vacation! We are headed up north to see cousins....
This morning, I came across the most touching blog. It's a cousin of one of my friend's here in Vegas. She was living in WA with her husband and 2 year old son, who they waited 7 years to adopt. On her 31st birthday, her husband took their son on a short canoe ride on the lake outside their home and never came home. You can read about her story here.
Our struggles and trials are all so individual. But I don't believe we would trade them for any one else's. After reading this sweet blog, I feel such a desire to do more with what I've been given and be GRATEFUL for all that I have.

Janet, I just read that tragic story about the 2 year old and dad that died in the lake. What a sad, sad story. The wife and Mother seems to have such a great perspective but I am sure that she suffers greatly. My issues don't seem very difficult. Love, Nancy
