Well, for some reason the pictures I post here do not show up elsewhere. They show up when I log on so I don’t know what the problem is. I don’t know of anyway else of posting them from here.
Anyway, Brian had Wednesday and Thursday off and while he relaxed on Wed. Serra and I went and hung out with some other ladies in the ward around a pool. Little Serra did not enjoy the pool. When I put her feet it she wailed. Not quite as warm as the bath water. I hope she outgrows her aversion to cool water as a dip now and then could be enjoyed by all.
For the 4th we got up late since there are no flag raising ceremonies around here. (Unpatriotic town) and then met up with the Andersons. We all hopped in the car, weinie dogs and all and headed up to Mt. Charleston where it is at least 15 degrees cooler. We had a picnic with nearly everyone else in Vegas. It was very crowded up there, as you might imagine. It is the nearest place that you can spend time outside and not cook. The valley has been well over 100 for weeks. We will make it through this summer. We will make it through this summer.
Serra is still the perfect angel and fusses rarely. She is a chatterbox and likes to have conversations with anyone nearby. She has been giggling in her sleep since birth but has started now when she is awake too. It is the most wonderful sound in the world.
Daddy Brian is back at work today much to his chagrin. By the time he gets rested enough to maybe accomplish something on my long to do list, he is back at work and we don’t know when the next day off will be. He is definitely paying his dues.

That giggling is the sweetest music, isn’t it? Unless it’s Jacob’s giggling, then it’s akin to a fire alarm…..What did he do this time?
I wish you were here to try out the Shields pool with baby Serra. Big Serra will be house sitting for a couple of weeks there and we will take advantage of the warm pool.
Liesl is at girls camp for 3 days. We are enjoying the kids. Jacob is asleep now so things are much calmer.
love,
