The end of May we celebrated 5 fabulous, amazing years of
marriage!!! I can’t believe how quickly
the years have flown by! I swear it was just a few months ago that we were
getting married. I am so grateful for a wonderful husband that I can definitely
say I love more and more each day. On
the actual day, we had a pretty normal day with work and what not. We
celebrated that weekend by going to Zarkana at the Aria and spending the night
and the LVH on The Strip. Zarkana is one of the Cirque du Soleil shows. It was
AMAZING! We had been wanting to see one of the Cirque shows and decided that
our anniversary was a good reason to splurge. We had a great weekend celebrating
and relaxing and reflecting over the past 5 years together.
Holy cow! We have lived in Las Vegas for 1 year already!
Where did the time go?!? It seems like we were just on our way down here with a
big moving van. I am glad that time has
been going quickly. We have been continuing with our stream of visitors and
that has been a blast!
The middle of May our friends Kylee and Joe came to stay
with us for a few days. I don’t think I have laughed so much in a weekend
before. I’m pretty sure we laughed the whole time they were here! We didn’t do
a lot other than hang out together, go swimming, and just chill. Kylee went to
culinary school and I have been telling her ever since she graduated that she
needs to cook for us. So she cooked Sunday dinner and it was fantastic! She
made stir fry and I could eat it every single day! Hats off to Kylee and her
mad cooking skills!
This week our friends Annie and Mike and their kiddos
stopped in Vegas for a visit as they were making their trek to Phoenix. Mike
just finished dental school in Virginia and they moved to Phoenix for him to
start his practice. It was great to see them! They have such adorable kiddos
and I couldn’t believe how big they had gotten. We had dinner together and then
they came back to our place before hitting the road. We were so excited to see
them and almost as excited (maybe more) to have them only living a few hours
away instead of all the way on the other side of the country!!
I think time is just going to keep flying by. We are only a
few weeks away from the 4th of July. The week after the 4th
Rumel is flying up to Idaho for his family reunion in Island Park. Then three
weeks after that we drive up to Utah to spend a week in Bear Lake with my
family. And by then the summer will almost be over. The only trouble will be
trying not to melt in this Vegas heat when we are home. We are just starting
into the 3 worst reasons about living in Vegas. I am not ready for this again.
Oh well! Bring on the summer and the vacations!
