Arizona Spring Break- part 2

We drove 15 3/4 hours yesterday to be back home. It was the first time we have driven the entire way in one day, and we made it! But today we were NOT getting in the car for anything.

Our trip was so fun and can be adequately described in this one picture:

It was beautiful weather and we enjoyed our time together.



From left to right, top to bottom:

  • looking at some rabbits at a landscaping store. They could go no closer because of the poop that was everywhere.
  • picnicing in Tucson prior to our spring training baseball game and the zoo.
  • Roper Lake
  • looking at a horse at afore mentioned store, and going no closer for fear the horse may bite
  • playing the piano with Grandpa
  • chasing ducks at the same store
  • shelling pecans (there are tons of pecan trees in my parents town, and they get tons from their friend, free, every year. We just have to shell them. There is nothing like fresh pecans, yum)
  • having a tea party. Ashlee was old enough to use the nice dishes and was so careful with them
  • watching a chicken at same store
  • a natural hot springs hot tub at Roper Lake
  • looking at baby chicks, again at same store
  • chicks again
  • laying in the new blanket my Mom made for Ashlee (did I ever mention that my Mom is an amazing quilter?)

"Hat"


It was fun to be outside so much. We are really itching for spring now.

The first picture of Ashlee is my favorite. She looks so awesome...and cool with her glasses of course.
