Cool weather - where fore art thou cool weather?


Greetings and salutations family!

I am multi tasking right now.

I just finished jotting down a few thoughts about mom to celebrate her 65th birthday while giving a few parched spots on the lawn a much needed drink. The weather is toying with my emotions right now and dangling the proverbial 'precipitation carrot' in front of my face. I see the clouds, I hear the wind but I feel no rain. :(

I'm a bit tired of the triple digit weather we have been having and want to punch the weather dudes in the face when they say in the nightly news that more triples are in our future. Kind of makes me wonder why I moved down to this desert. Oh yes now I remember - family. I moved down for family. And they are worth every dry desert drop.

Speaking of family I want to introduce everyone to the newest member of our family - Eric Scott Roberts. By now you all should have received pictures of this precious arrival. If you haven't seen the pictures please let me know and I'll send them post haste. This picture was taking when little baby E was just 15 hours old.

I now must go turn off the water, change clothes and go watch BYU play football. Must support my cougars of course. Jake and I were singing the fight song to baby Eric the other day. So far Eric hasn't caught the cougar spirit, but with Matt and Julie as his parents I have no doubt that it will come. If you plant and nourish it - it will grow. :)
