Recap of Arizona Trip

Finally we were able to get out of Town as a family! We went over Conference Weekend.
We had a great time visiting Rob's Brother John and Sis-in-law Myrna in Arizona.
We hadn't seen Lucy for a year! She was so cute and big. James loved her.

All the Kiddos: Lucy, Max and James

Visiting Long Lost Friends:
We visited with friends Ryan and Emily in Las Vegas.
They have the cutest boys, Maclaren and Rowan. We stayed there fora night.
Thanks for hosting us Emily and Ryan!
We also visited friends Candice and Steve in AZ.
The last time we had seen them was at our wedding almost 4 years ago.
It was fun to see them.
Funny how we didn't get pics of them or Ryan and Emily but we did get pics of the kids.
This is a pic of Jaycee (Candice's little girl) and James playing int he yard. Jaycee liked pushing James in the little car. We watched General Conference at their home and saw horses.

James and Lucy playing outside. So cute Lucy!

Sidewalk chalk was a big hit.

James has been potty trained for 6 months. So when he saw little Lucy's Potty he was reminiscant of his old little potty. Lucy's potty was cooler- it sings when you potty. James only wanted to use the little potty, he was in love. Whenever I heard the music go off I knew where he was. He brought it out in front of the TV because he loved it soo much!!!! So funny to us. Lucy wanted to use the Potty more too. Needless to say when we got home James wanted the little potty out again but it has lost its novelty now and he is back peeing like Dad.
Am I too bold to post this??!! I dont care!:)
The coolest part of the trip though was when we all crammed into the old station wagon to drive into town for Mexican Food and a night at the temple. If you can picture- John and Myrna in front, the three car seats in the middle, and me and Rob in the back seat facing backwards. We kept making out and being goofy. It was soooo fun. Myrna knew how to give the little car gas! It had a V6 so we were sailing. I tried to take a picture to document the night but it turned out a bit blurry.


Thanks John and Myrna for hosting us! We love you guys!

Well hopefully you do make it to Cali soon! My husband is only getting older by the minute :) Anyway, I can't believe how much your boys look alike!!! They could almost be twins... only not the same age. I miss you so much! Is the weather nice in Utah for you?!
