Christams in the AZ

On Christmas afternoon we escaped the bitter cold and headed to warm and sunny Arizona! The kids were VERY excited to fly on an airplane again and they were great travelers!! We had a fabulous time with my WONDERFUL inlaws!! Stella and Porter were so happy to see Grandma, Grandpa and Uncle Chris! We had great weather, lots of fun things to do and lots of time creating memories. :) I know most of you have seen my pics on facebook, so I'm trying to post different pics so they aren't all repeats. :)

The morning after Christmas we had our Christmas with Grams, Gramps, and Uncle Chris. Here is Steve opening a gift.

Stella fell in love with these Christmas decorations of Grandma's. Linda told me they've had them for years and they are little carolers and in true grocery store fashion, they also sport the Pepsi logo. :)
Eating lunch one day.

Picking lemons and grapefruits at one of Steve and Linda's rental properties. They made lemonade with the lemons. Porter loved it and Stella didn't care too much for it.

Mike, Chris and I went to the ISU bowl game while in Arizona. It was a lot of fun and we saw a lot of fun people at the game!

Cuddling on Grandma and Grandpa's bed, watching a movie.

Playing at the park, we spent a LOT of time at the parks while we were there.

At the Phoenix Zoo.

We met Chris for lunch one day and headed to Peter Piper's pizza. They had an area full of games that the kids went nuts over. Unlike Chuck E. Cheese, the pizza was actually really good and the game area was really clean! :)

Porter sacked out on the plane from Denver to Des Moines. He slept most of the flight.

Thank you Steve and Linda for a fabulous trip!!!!!!! We miss you guys already!
