Home Sweet Home

 We were out by the pool by 9:00 this morning and it was already HOT!  The shade quickly vanished and the 108 degree heat plus 45 mile an hour winds were brutal! Although, we had planned on staying in Vegas for 2 nights, we soon realized we were all ready to get home and this weather wasn't worth staying another night.  The girls swam until about noon...
and then we got a yummy lunch at Steak n Shake before packing up the car and going HOME!

In 10 days we traveled 1800 miles, were in 4 states (AZ for 20 minutes), stayed in 3 hotels, crossed 47 states off in the License Plate Game (never found South Carolina, Maryland or West Virginia) and made so many wonderful memories along the way.  I was so thankful for the time spent as a family, reconnecting without any disruptions and seeing so many new places.  But I also realized how much we love living where we live and experiencing the everyday things that we do.  It was the perfect start to our SUMMER!
