Hiking to Hole in the Rock

Okay it wasn't much of a hike, but it was fun!! Spring break is here and we are trying to do as much as we can before school starts again. So today when we got a call from Sarah and Hunter asking what we were doing we jumped at the chance to get out and do something active. So we met them at the Papago Park and went climbing. After we had our fill we walked around the park and then took off to Arizona Falls. We had a nice afternoon and got a bit of exercise and lots of sun! After all that sweaty walking the girls and Hunter came home and jumped in the pool. Still think they are CRAZY!!!
Okay it won't let me upload pictures tonight.. so I will try again tomorrow!

Cousins Galore!!

Last night our cousins from Minnesota came to visit! Aunt Arlene and her two kids and their kids! All 9 of them in total. This was pretty much our last opportunity to see Jeff and his kids because they leave tonight! It was so fun! A pizza party!! The 9 of them arrived and Jenna got to meet all her second and third cousins! The kids hung out in the grapefruit tree, well the boys got to play monkeys and climbed it!! The kids all got along great! Jenna and I are looking forward to spending time with the girls this week, too bad that Jeff and his kids have to leave so quick! Here is a picture of all the little ones (only missing James!!
Kyle, Justin, Natasha, McKenzie, Joshua, Bradley, Emmalee, Elizabeth, and Jenna


Jeff, Terri, Jill and I (first cousins)

First Swim of the Season on March 15th? Are they nuts?



Yesterday Jenna and her girlfriend Ally took a dip in the pool! Yep you read it right, and yes the date is March 15th! Normally the pool isn't open and inviting until at least after Easter but these two dare devils decided to take the plunge! Of course Saturday they were at the lake and in the water there (runoff from the snow in the mountains) and it was freezing!! Thanks to Nana we have pictures of the event!!
