Spring Break

I know this is a little late, but I am just now getting back into the groove of things after being on vacation for 11 days. It was nice to get away. I loaded the car, picked Cody up early from school, and headed out of town. We drove to Vegas, and had a little pit stop, so the boys could get out of the car a bit and stretch their legs. We then got back into the car and headed to Lake Havasu City. We stayed with my mom for 2 nights. We went to the beach and played in the sand. Natalie wasn't too sure about it at first, but after a few seconds, she didn't mind it, and was putting the sand on her own feet. It was cute.

We then headed to Phoenix. Our final destination for the week. We got to my dad's house, and unloaded the car a bit, and off to Cayden's birthday party we went. The kids had fun playing, and I enjoyed catching up with my brothers and SIL's and my aunt and sister.

We did so much stuff while we were there. We went to different parks, and we went to the zoo twice. The boys and I got to pet some sting rays. That was sooooo cool. They are really rubbery, but in a soft way. Really hard to explain. They had almost like that craft foam feel to them.

We went on a "train" ride. It was actually the Lightrail system in Phoenix, but the boys thought it was a train since it was on tracks. They didn't care what the real name was.

And, my wonderful, talented SIL took GORGEOUS pictures of my kids. *Andrea Whittle Photography*

I am trying so hard to get my hubby to move to Phoenix. At the moment, he just won't budge. :( Oh well. I guess I will be spending money driving down there then. The trip back was very long, and I did it all in one day. It wouldn't have been possible without the DVD player though. That thing is sooooo handy. I really want to get one installed in my car, but.....it will take a lot of convincing to spend that much money.
