Scottsdale!

We just returned from Scottsdale... so nice! I think maybe every year I'll move there from Jan-May. We swam, biked, played at the park, and just flat out enjoyed the sun. The kids really worked on their swimming skills (they can almost swim alone!) since we were in the pool about 10 hours a day. Here's our trip:

Colton was a litte crazy when we threw him

We got a bike trailer for the AZ house so we could all go on rides together. I learned that this is not easy preggers. At least I didn't have to pull the twins.

Colton and Ashley were washing their boats with Grandpa. The things he lets them do...

Here's another one. Ashley told him to come to her beauty salon and she put scotch tape all over his face. Ow.

This was the only hiccup. The dishwasher was leaking. So, Tyler and my dad fixed it. It was hilarious watching the two of them and it was quite an adventure for them. But, it was fixed and looks great. Good job guys!

Ashley helped make pancakes every morning...

The famous "midnight swim". No, it's not at midnight. More like 8pm. The kids love getting in the pool at night- this was Papa Mike's invention. We always make him go in with them for this reason.

Ashley wanted to go swimming after she was already dressed so Tyler put her in a bucket and floated her around the pool.

Our morning walk. Papa Mike and Tyler pretty much carried the kids the whole way.

We had to stop on our walk and pose by a big cactus.

And, the kids in our noodles. Thank you to Grandma Kathy and Papa Mike for such a fun trip!
