Arizona Spring Break

We don't officially have a spring break anymore because we are not affiliated with school, so we decided to just pick a week and go to Arizona and call that our spring break. Children that are 2 years old need their own ticket, so our trip ended the day before LE turned 2. Great timing I know.

We played some backyard cousins. We found about 40 old tennis balls at the park, so the adults were having fun throwing them at each other. Somewhat childish of the adults.

This is some fine Arizona cookin. Meals are always nicer when you don't have to prepare them or clean up by yourself.

It drove Ry crazy that the bikes were not in good working condition, so he did some fixin.

The girls loved the charriot, and we are very interested in purchasing one. We think LE should do her first triathlon this year, so she might have to spend some time in one of these puppies.

Everyone loves the park

Ba really enjoyed basking in the sun. She claims it makes her skin feel better, but she probably just want that super model tan.

LE got super muddy while playing the the water and dirt... wait... that sounds like the exact thing her dad does.


We hiked about a mile, and LE walked almost the entire way. I feel like this is going to be a nice family activity.

When LE has these shades on, she thinks she is pretty cool. The pack didn't last long.

It is really nice when LE reaches up and asks to hold your finger. She will only take one.



Ba won $20 to her personnal budget by sinking a few birdies in a very intense game of mini golf. We didn't have time for a full golf game, but we figured we were in Phoenix, so we had to get as close as we could.

We were all surprised when the two kids under two started riding away on the tricycle.

We missed our flight home, so we decided to drive. It wasn't bad, and we had all sorts of fun stopping at parks, and eating ice cream, oreos and fries all the way home.

Everyone is passed out, except the driver, and it was nice to have some quiet.

  1. Oh, Spring Break :) We definitely aren't looking forward to the days of purchasing plane tickets. Bummer that you missed your flight, but looks like you didn't let that get you down.
