Fall Break

We have had a great time in Arizona for Fall Break! I already blogged about Wednesday's Muppet party. On Thursday we enjoyed hanging out with the cousins. We started at Amy's house, and Ryan took most of the kids to the nearby park. I love that our kids are getting old enough that when we were at the house, we could just let them play while Ryan and I enjoyed visiting with Amy, Kaley, and Cassi! Later Cassi and I took the younger kids (Joshua and Elizabeth) back to her house. I helped her prepare Hawaiian Haystacks for dinner, and again it was great to be able to visit while the kids had fun together!

On Saturday, the dads took the kids bowling (I went with Cheryl to get a pedicure)! Then we all met at In N Out for lunch. The kids and I relaxed at Grandma and Grandpa's house for quiet time in the afternoon while Ryan and his parents hung some pictures at the dance studio. We ended the evening with dinner and all the family at Grandma and Grandpa's house.

so cute!

Elizabeth's quiet time started in the car -- it's been a fun week!

Nathan has really enjoyed playing basketball at Grandma's house this trip. I was able to sneak a few pictures un-detected!

 We love our family and are so grateful we could come visit for a few days! It was a fun vacation!
