Arizona!

Every February, Steve and I start itching for summer. And the past three years we make a trip to the St. George Parade of Homes but when that didn't work out this year, we knew that we needed to get somewhere warm fast. So made a quick 10 hour trip to Arizona to visit all our friends and family in the Gilbert/Mesa areas and it was SO great! I even made it back in time for New Beginnings at 7:00 on Sunday night.

Cohen loved being outside and going for walks and he was great on the drive down. My only regret is not taking more pictures of everyone. How do I never learn my lesson? Well, don't worry there's plenty of Cohen.


Steve's cousin, Jimmy, and his brand new baby, Rollins, who was born last Monday. It was so great to be able to see them!

Cohen and Quince swinging at the park. Spence and Rach were nice enough to let us stay with them. We miss having them down the road so much! And their cute kids are growing up so fast and hopefully it won't be so long before we see them again. Thanks, Critts!

We also got to visit my brother, Brady and his wife, Sherry. Yes, Sherry and I bought Preston and Cohen matching shirts, but they were so cute.

Sweet little Paige was born just a couple of weeks before they moved to Arizona so it was crazy to see how big she has gotten. She's so cute with her big blue eyes!


Of course, more fun cousin pictures.

Brady with his cute kids.



On Saturday we went for a little walk. I don't think I can say that we hiked when we had 3 kids, flip flops and rolled up jeans. A guy on the trail even told us we didn't look very well prepare for the trail ahead, but we did just fine. And I loved how green everything was!





Thanks again, Critts, Joneses, and Bouses for letting us come visit! We had so much fun!!
