February in Vegas

Still catching up and will be for a while. Hoping to get completely caught up by the time i leave for Utah next week since I will be there for the whole month of July. Life in Vegas is hot! I have done my share of complaining about the weather here. But...from November 1st until about the beginning of May, it is awesome! The weather is very mild, and I still wear flip flops in the winter sometimes. It never snows, and seldom rains. It rarely is overcast and when it is, I find myself yawning and feeling like doing nothing. I love the fact that it is sunny 350 days a year. There is something about that energy that you get from natural sunlight. I am good to go, go, go all day with projects, errands, the gym, and all the junk my kids do, and I rarely take a nap. But...in October, I am soooo sick of the heat! I want fall. I want the smell of fall. I want leaves falling of the trees, and I want to start wearing sweaters. I want to bake something with apples in it. But, that doesn't happen here. It is still 90+ degrees in October. When November comes, it just cools off, but doesn't feel like fall. ANd when Christmas comes, I want snow, and cozy, and to drink me some hot cocoa on a cold winter day. Nope, we don't get that either. It looks the same, but just a tad cooler. Now it is summer, and we are in the low 100's each day. I think I am used to this heat. Owen and I call each other lizards cause we get cold when it's 60 degrees outside. The heat has not bothered me yet this summer. But, I think it has been mild. Now if we were to get to maybe 115, it may be a different story. Well, now that I've bored you with the weather report, I'll show you some pictures of life in Vegas in February.
