Arizona

We just came home from visiting GG and Grandpa George in sunny Arizona.  We were so excited to visit them out there.  As it had been way too many years.  We had two nice days of weather before the rain came in.  So one day we took the kids to the train park.  It was so cute.  I had never been there before.  It was a perfect day.  Of course spending time with GG and TT meant good food.  So we ate some yummy foods while we were out there.  
I loved getting to spend so much time with gram and gramps.  In our busy lives here we only ever get to see each other an hour or two each week.On the other hand I'm sure they were glad to see us go because they're not used to having kids around 24/7.  They can resume the sleep, eat, awake, sleep, eat, sleep schedule.  Whew, it was a busy few days.  The kids actually kindly woke up at 4am the first morning.  Let's just say there isn't any good cartoon at that hour.   
 I also want to say thank you for anyone that said prayers for us flying.  Our flight arrived 45 minutes EARLY on the way out! (God was making it up to me since he was on my #*%! list for extending the Florida flight an extra hour)  Then the kids were really good on the flight home.  I'm not kidding I was really dreading the flights.  We are already looking forward to the next time we'll be out in AZ.  Although I'm sure it will be in a few more years.
All aboard!  It was the cutest train.

This was the train that went around the park

 It was so funny.  She ate all the olives (yuck) off of our 4 plates
Jojo actually was able to sit in the cockpit of our returning flight.
How cool is that!  Gotta love Southwest.

THANKS GRANDMA AND GRANDPA

In other news I'm excited to tell you that we finally got a new computer and our modem hopefully fixed.  As most of you know I don't really like or just don't care about technology, but our new Mac Computer is awesome.  I didn't know that a comp could be so easy or dare I say fun to use.  So my intentions are to get back to blogging a little more regularly and checking my email more often.  Oh and our house phone is back to working also.
