Snow in Tucson!!! March 13th

 The first day of spring break, Tucson was greeted with snow!! We were thrilled. It's been so dang dry. Last year was the driest year on record. My trees are hurting especially without a well. The fun part was that the news did not predict snow. Adrianna came running into our room at 6 am because she noticed the white stuff outside her window. We woke up all the kids and went on a hike. It was so beautiful. Dirt looks beautiful covered in snow. It warmed up quick like it does here but we had a few magical hours.

Bella Baby Bonkers Boo turns 20!! March 8th

Bella turned 20!! How is this possible since I'm in my late 20's ...Benjamin grilled chicken, I made fettuccine alfredo and we had pumpkin pie to honor our oldest daughter. We had her roommate (cousin Madison whom she loves), best friend (Hallie) and grandparents over. We love this girl. She is an excellent example always joyful which makes her fun to be around. Her uncle Pete gave her some excellent relationship advice. He said to look back with fond memories and leave hard feelings in her "teens." She has taken this motto and has ran with it. See what I mean about an excellent example!!

Couples trip to Snowbowl March 5th

 We went to Flagstaff to go skiing with our Adventure buddies Sherry and Clint Whetten. These two are always up for fun and this trip did not disappoint. First they love classy hotels, so that's always exciting because we love to save a buck but are easily influenced. We had a day of skiing, a night of hot tubbing and we ate at our favorite Thai food place. Sherry and I have eaten there a couple times for girls trips with Sherry but this was Benjamin's first and he loved it. It truly is the yummest Thai food. A skii trip without injuries is always a win too!
