Arizona

Kris was looking at a possible transfer to Az and since I had never been there, we booked our flights to Phoenix at 10pm on friday and left first thing Saturday morning for the remainder of the weekend.

We had a map of Phoenix and the outlying cities and were complete tourists. On a mission to find out every ounce of info about Arizona the good and bad and we were the ultimate people watchers. We had so much fun and so many good laughs meeting up with our friends Karen and Joe, who just Graduated from Pharmacy school! We had a quick stay at the Desert Ridge JW which was beautiful and we cant wait to go back there... but as for moving there?

No time in the future, CA is the place for us for now.... who knows what the future holds. I am definately appreciative of the landscape here, having the beach close and HOAs.

Thanks again to my parents, I guess we couldnt move too far from them!

What can you do with 3 rolls of tape?

This went all the way up the stairs and down the hall.

And the best news? They had fun and cleaned up every piece of tape when they were done!

Palm Desert

Kris played in a Golf Tournament on Monday in Palm Desert at the JW and Thanks to Jenna, Mom, Ash and Jeff... I was able to join him!

We always forget to take any pics when we travel together but randomly grabbed a quick one before going out on our last night.

Kindergarten Mothers Day Program

I was treated to an afternoon filled with Sweet smiles, Songs, Poems and Treats from my Sweet Boys.

They painted portraits of me that were beautiful! However, i think there is a little confusion over my hair color.... I guess it depends how far overdue I am to have my hair done!

Collin and Gavin with their buddy Easton

They wrote Poems ~ Gavin, My mom is as sweet as a plum!

Collin, My Mom is as sweet as an Apple.

Gavin serving me the most delicious Cookie and Sweet Strawberry!

Such a Special Afternoon!

Cozy Brothers

Sleepy Collin and Smiley Gavin cozied up in our bed in their robes.

He's Back...

And we can't get enough of him!

We picked up Kris from the airport Sunday and while waiting for him to go through customs, we found a great little place to watch the planes fly right over us. The first thing he wanted was an In & Out Cheeseburger!

He brought eiffel towers for the boys along with a container of pirates, ships, etc. and french money. Hendrix got the cutest little french bear. And for me? A gorgeous box of French Macroons (yum), The softest Hermes scarf (yum), perfume, lotion and shower gel (yum) and a big bag for traveling.... Maybe for when I go to Paris?

Carnival Fun

Because our Daddy was out of town for Fathers and Sons camp out, Papa was going to take them instead... But, at the last minute they decided they wanted to go to the school carnival.

Collin's face says it all.... a fun carnival trip with Papa!

I'd rather not know what he was eating ~

Bonjour!

9 days ago, Kris left for France.... Today he comes home and we couldn't be more excited!

These pictures are from the morning he left~

He has had such an amazing trip and we are so excited to see him again~
