Mom Visits in June

This is a little late, but the pictures are still fun to share. My Mom came out to visit for a week in June while Richard went to DC for work. We did runs to Phoenix for pick up/drop off two weekends in a row. Richard got great rates on hotels because it is SO HOT in June! But the pool was what really mattered, well, besides the airport.

It's almost 4 hours to drive down from Holbrook to Phoenix, so we try to find stops along the way that provide food and stretch breaks for Daniel and Walnut. A good one is in Heber at a county park where there are sheltered picnic tables, a playground, and lots of trees and space for a walk with Walnut. AND it's almost 7,000 feet in elevation there, so significantly cooler than either Holbrook or Phoenix! The playground pictures below are at this park.

Thanks Granny for the wonderful visit! We look forward to seeing you AND Grandpa in November!


We love the burgers at La Grande Orange!

Daniel loves his books! He's starting to ask what words "say", so before too long, he'll be doing this on his own!





Richard's Dad and nephew Matthew joined us the second weekend in Phoenix.
Squirty bath toys were a big hit in the pool! And a night swim was extra refreshing.
Traveling sure tires Daniel out. I'm so thankful he still naps - in the car and at home!
