Fresh Air

A quick post to share some cute pictures.  The weather here in Vegas has been AMAZING the past few days:  sunny, 72 degrees, 9% humidity. . . perfect!  In addition, one of Jonathan's sisters has come out for a few days to visit.  So we've taken advantage of her presence to get OUT of the city and enjoy the scenery.  Yesterday we ventured into Red Rock Canyon (see a more descriptive post about previous visits here) and, unlike the last time, actually did some REAL hiking/climbing.  Well, her boys did most of the climbing; Amy and I hiked alongside them on the trail, and while I tried not to drop my child, she tried to stay calm and hope hers didn't fall.  Anyways, got some cute pics of MJ as we stopped to rest.


LOVE the view. . . and you can't see how tightly I was holding onto him. ;)


Today Amy took her boys down to the Strip to see a show, but I couldn't bear to stay indoors, so I took MJ to the park across the street from our sub-division.  We sat down and watched the big kids play baseball, a little girl fly a kite, and several people run around the jogging path.  The highlight for MJ was the GRASS!  Although we have grass in our backyard, he isn't allowed to touch it since it's so highly fertilized (and his hands would grow straight from the fertilized grass into his mouth) so this grass was a real treat.

Little baby toes in the grass for the first time. . .


Look, ma!  I can touch it!


I think this park has the BEST view of the city (because you can SEE it, but not be really IN it.)


That's all for now.  Just had to gloat about the beautiful weather and scenery. :)
