Arizona

We spent Easter weekend in Arizona with my parents. The trip was great; my only regret was that we did not spend more time there. As many of you know, it does not matter if you are traveling for two days or two weeks - with kids, it requires packing the same amount of gear! I was humbled on the plane, however, when a family of 11 (the youngest being Matty's age) sat in front of us.

Anyways, our time together was busy. My dad and Tommy played golf a couple of times, I basked in the sun as much as possible, and the kiddos enjoyed playing in new surroundings. Mimi had some awesome toys on hand that were a hit with both Taylor and Matty, and the weather was fabulous. The recap is best told in pictures, so here goes...
