Spring Break 2015 has come and gone and once again, we reflect with gratitude to be able to visit Grandma and Grandpa in AZ.
Stella and Grandma cuddled up playing solitaire on the iPad.
Sunday was a highlight for me. We went to mass and then met up with all my AZ fam at an adorable Italian place that was Aunt Ann's favorite. The kids has a blast together! Why I didn't get a pic of the adults is beyond me!!! (you can see a few reflections in the mirror....haha!).
We went to our 1st spring training game ever on Tuesday.... So much fun. I was reading the courtesy airplane magazine on our flight down and found out about this cool park right next to the Cubs Spring Training facility and just had to check it out. Super cool! Splash pads, ziplines, climbing walls, etc!
The game was really fun!
Lots of swim time in the pool.
We love to hike new trails when we are in AZ. We hiked a local trail this day and did the most difficult route, it wasn't too bad. Camelback was definitely harder last year.
Taking Steve's bike for a spin in the 'hood.
How in the world is Stella 10???!! Her main gift was her desk, but she also, was surprised with tickets to see Taylor Swift in concert next Oct!!! She (and I !!!!) are super excited! TS is her absolute FAV! Tickets went on sale last Nov, almost a full year before the concert (crazy!!), so I've been sitting on this surprise for awhile. (I might be more excited than her! Haha!!)
P inherited a labeler from Grandpa, which meant that Pmhad to label everything!! Including me! LOL!
It was a rainy day in the desert the morning of S's bday so we went to an indoor pizza/arcade place.
With grandma and grandpa.
Blowing out 10 candles!
Last day took the kids off roading in the neighbors Gator type ATV. Super fun!
Plane ride home. This cracked me up. He made a label for his iPad! Love this boy!
And.......nothing else says "welcome home" other than a garden gnome with st paddys days beads arounds it's neck (and sporting a woody) . Hahaha! Seriously cracked us up last night. Love our friends. (we put this gnome on their door steps almost 10 months ago, without the beads and note,.....guess it was time for us to get a payback!! Haha!!)
