The kids will mis thier next door neighbor good buddies who they played with EVERY SINGLE DAY this summer--Laurel, Ben, Megan and Jacob.
The day we left Utah, Miles was blessed by Owen.

He looks like he's waving in this pic, but I think he's tipping.
Miles is now 2 1/2 months and talking, smiling and looking so old. He's still a tank.
Owen had Thursday and Friday off ( if you've forgotten why we're in vegas-Owen just stared a 2 year pediatric dental residency at UNLV.--23 months to go--did I say that outloud too?) So we desereted the desert and headed to SOCAL. only 4 hours to his parents house. On Friday we took the kids to Knotts Berry farm--our free entertainment thanks to Owen's dad who always has tickets laying around. Maggie amazes me at how big she's getting. She rode all the big coasters and loved them. I still can't believe how tall she is and how old she's getting. She went on The supreme scream with me--they take you 300+ feet in the air and then drop you. She loved it--and I screamed the whole way down and wondered why I did that one!
On Saturday, Owen took me over to his old office and drilled my tooth that has been bothering me for months.--then had lunch with all his dentist friends which he misses greatly. Lets just say going back to school is not that glorious!--We then took the kids to Sunset beach and the kids really enjoyed the waves crashing into them.-
An exhausting afternoon at the beach.
Miles first trip to the Ocean--taking a 2 month old to the beach really isn't very fun!
-Owen's cousin came down from Lake Elizabeth with her new baby who is 1 month younger than Miles--and a lot smaller, and we had dinner at the soup Plantation.
Owen, Miles and Lotus--thank goodness we don't have twins!
Then Sunday morning, our plans were to go to church, but we woke up to a dead cat and had to have a funeral. Owen even made him a headstone with a drummel. Wallace, you will be greatly missed.
Owen and his brother mane all of their animals with a last name--I think Penleg has something to do with the mama kitty getting her leg cought in a door. Wallace was around 20 when he passed.
After an awesome BBQ salmon dinner made by the master chef Owen, we headed back to Vegas--I have a feeling we will be making a lot of these trips.

You have been busy- I can't say that taking a baby to the beach was ever my favorite thing- but how fun that you are close to such fun places. Do you like Vegas? Good luck with everything, and I love the pics of your family- you do good work!
I was so happy to get your email earlier and to hear that you are all settled in Vegas. I just knew it would all work out - it looks like you really found a great home - that backyard really is quite amazing for a rental (I'm sure you remember what mine looked like...). Anyway, you've got to tap into all the parks with water features - they are the best and they make it so you can still go out when it is so HOT. That is one thing I really miss about Vegas. Anyway, happy adjusting and good luck. Oh, and I REALLY wish I could hold Miles - fat babies are the best!
Ahhh, all together again! I love that sleeping picture! Too cute. I sure wish we were only 4 hours away from a beach. I think I would be loading up and heading out every weekend....calling? What calling? I would be going to the church of the ocean waves.
Oh, and that little nugget of yours is so squishable...What a cute little chuncka munka.
He is a tank! I love fat babies :) I'm so happy for you guys to be back together and that house looks Awesome!!!
Oh how nice that you're settled! I'm glad you are so close to Owen's parents. That beach looked nice. My present for Miles is on its way...I was just waiting for your LV address! Good luck w/ the HOT weather. You will survive 2 yrs!
Congrats on being back together. I'm glad your trial separation didn't last too long. ;)
Next time we're in Vegas we can sleep on your couch, right?
