The Mountains:
It’s always about 20 degrees cooler (or more!) up in the mountains here. So beautiful too…it feels like a whole other world and it’s only about a 40-minute drive from where we live in Vegas. Here are some pictures from a recent trip I took with my friends and their cute kids…
Justin had just gotten this bug catcher from his Grandma the day before we went. He is obsessed with bugs and had so much fun looking for them in the mountains. It was great.
A swarm of ladybugs flew through our site and the kids caught a ton. They were in heaven. Here's a picture of one little ladybug...
The kids also had fun chasing bubbles through the trees...
For some reason I didn't get very many pictures of Emily. :( Here's one of her with her friend Mindy...
And here is Eden with her little friend Kate...
(they were so good at sharing their rocks with eachother :) )
Daring me to stop her...
Her reaction...
Truthfully, Eden-in-the-mountains wore me out. :) But, we still had a blast and we'll be sure to go back at least a couple more times before the summer's over. I'm so thankful that even though we live in Hades we still have these wonderful ways to get out of the heat and have fun together!
