Las Vegas and More...or Less?

Alright, so I suppose i should tell all of you about our great trip to Las Vegas to see the Thunderbirds at the Airshow. And I bet right now you are all thinking, "Lucky Lydia! She got to go down to the sun and warmth of Vegas!" Well, if you are thinking this, you are dead wrong! It was cold and windy! I couldn't take my jacket off the whole time we were down there and we even had to drive through the remnants of a snow storm! But I do have to be honest, even though it was a little than ideal (as far as the weather goes), it was still a lot of fun!


Here I am in my forward facing car seat! Yeah, I know, I'm still a few pounds away from really being able to ride this way, but I guess Mom and Dad finally gave in after 5 hours of fussing on the way to St. George! Don't you just love my hair in this one?!

I also got to get behind the controls of a C-17 Globemaster. It was crazy fun! Maybe I'll learn to fly airplanes like Daddy when I get older!

Now, these planes aren't the Thunderbirds. They are the Patriots, a privately owned group that fly at shows like the one we went to. They are flying training jets (subsonic) but they were still really good!


Dad and I really enjoyed watching the airplanes fly. They were a little loud though. Of course, Mom and Aunt Rissy went and bought some ear plugs for all of us...and then Mom went and forgot them in the car! Silly Mommy!

It was fun to spend time with Aunt Rissy and Uncle Jason! They always make things more fun!

Here is a picture of the Thunderbirds. Arent' they beautiful! I think they fly way to fast for Mom to get any good pictures of them!

Saturday, we went on a walk with Grandma and Grandpa Judd out at Farmington Bay. It was a little cold, but I survived, and we enjoyed the scenery!

My favorite part was to play on the bridge of the new trail they are putting in. The logs moved a little and it made all kinds of fun noises when I would walk across!

I've also become quite the little trooper and hiker. I walked all by myself for a good chunk of the walk. Of course, it was very intermittent walking! :o)


Mom got this shot of in the light of the setting sun! I'm pretty darn cute aren't I?!!
