Arizona in May

We just got back from a super fun trip to Arizona. We arrived late Thursday night and were picked up by Kirk and Sharon and headed back to the house to get some rest for our full weekend. On Friday, we woke up and got a little bit of exercise in before heading off to LGO. (Le Grande Orange...our favorite breakfast spot). We met up with Nick and Alyssa and little Ava. This was our first time meeting our little niece. She is soooo cute. These pictures do not do her justice.


After our delicious breakfast we decided to head to the mall to hang out in the air conditioning since it was 98 degrees over the weekend! We dawdled around and found some expensive things that we liked but did not buy. After the mall, we all headed back to relax and get ready for the evening. We decided to eat dinner at Charlestons. We all enjoyed each others company and had a yummy dinner. After dinner, we all hung out at the parents house and chatted. On Saturday, we woke up and relaxed. We visited Tadd's condo that is rented out and I got to lay out in the beautiful sun, in my amazing new bathingsuit! After our morning, we went down to Awhatukee to spend some extra time with Nick and Alyssa and Ava. Alyssa and I got a lovely pedicure that was so relaxing and some nice girl time. The 5 of us then went out to sushi before eating some zoyo yogurt with our friends Fred and Chana.





After a late Saturday night, we arose early for Sunday and Mother's Day! Sharon made some delicious apple donuts and Tadd made the big surprise and bacon for our tasty breakfast! We all got ready for church which was at 1:00pm. Nick and Alyssa blessed baby Ava Jo and headed home after sacrament meeting. We spent some extra family time together before enjoying Alyssa's amazing enchiladas that she made for the 8 of us. The enchiladas were complimented with some great side dishes from Sharon. Then we enjoyed a slice of cherry pie! We then flew back home and got in pretty late...but it was a great trip and can't wait to see everyone again.
