Year 4 – Week 22 – Day 3

Another crazy weekend has gone by! First we were having company, then we weren’t having company, and then we ended up having lightning fast company after all!

We went to Sam’s Club to get ready for company. The boys love to go get something from the Free-osk, then tour the samples! Pound cake with berries and Ready Whip? Yum!

Happy Birthday, Uncle Kevin! Sorry you couldn’t make it after all. We enjoyed a big pot roast on your behalf.
We went to the airport anyway because I had promised the boys we would ride the Sky Train.

We went to the security exit

Look who we found!? Aunt Heather was just changing planes on her way home to Texas, but her layover in Phoenix was just long enough to pop out and give some hugs!

Today we wanted to go to the zoo. Brendan did NOT WANT sunscreen.

“No pictures!!!!!”

The zoo was ridiculously crowded so we didn’t even try to go in. We prepared to go to the zoo splash pads, so we found a playground and splash pad elsewhere.
Funny thing is, the boys didn’t want to go in the water! Trevor went in the mist a little but didn’t get wet!

They had plenty of fun on the playground.

We found this little Buy/Sell/Trade game store that has a huge bin of loose Legos for sale. I made the mistake of taking the boys in once. Brendan spent the rest of the day BEGGING to go to the game store. BEGGING every minute. “Go in car!!” “Go game STOOOOOORE”
I caved and took him. They are closed on Mondays!

We wish the very best for a speedy recovery to Uncle Robert in New York. Love and healing hugs from Arizona!

Year 4 – Week 21 – Day 7

Happy Equinox! We had a couple of cool and slightly rainy days, but now the days will keep getting longer and the 90+ temperatures will be back to stay.

We celebrated the first day of Spring with the boys’ first chocolate bunnies. 421bt07

Whole bunny + Trevor = “Oh boy, what have I done?”

The boys and their crazy games

Year 4 – Week 21 – Day 3

Happy 14th, Kayla!!! Wish we could be there to help you celebrate!

Trevor has a surprise for when Bill tries to go to work in the morning…

We are trying to beat the heat. We had our first 90 degree day today, and the humidity has almost reached single digits. Chapstick sales go through the roof.

The boys are “riding through the car wash”

After Trevor watched a silly video of his cousin Ashley he just nodded and said, “I want to play with HER”. The boys were inspired.

2 weeks passed – no vent! Go Brendan!
