Phoenix Visit

It had been over a year since we had been down to Phoenix, to visit family. Crazy! We had been trying to figure out when we could make a trip, when my brother and his wife told us that they were being sealed. Perfect excuse!

We drove down early Friday morning (we left at 4:00). We got to Phoenix and went to the big playground at Anthem so that the kids could get all over their wildness out before having to act presentable to family. The weather was beautiful and we had fun playing on slides and riding the train.

Josh was so happy to get out of his carseat!




On Saturday we attended my brother and sister-in-law's sealing in the Mesa temple. It was beautiful! Afterward we had a pizza celebration for them at my parent's house, and I got to visit with almost all of my siblings and grandparents.


On Sunday we went to church with Mike's parents (and his sister and her family), and afterward had a family dinner. Adam and Grace were in cousin heaven! They LOVE their cousins and talk about them all the time! It was especially fun for Grace to see her "girl" cousins... I think that there are just too many boys here for her sometimes. ;)


We drove back Monday, and took our time coming home. It was really a perfect trip!
