Last spring break was the first time I drove to Phoenix without Bruce (but with the girls, of course). Due to his work schedule he flew down to meet us later. We split the trip up into two days, staying overnight in Kanab. Kate and Maggie LOVE a) a hotel pool and B) a hotel breakfast and were thrilled with the accommodations.
We arrived in Gilbert around 1:30 and by 1:38 this was the scene.
Going to Phoenix to visit Bruce's family is always fun. We've been there enough that we have our favorite stops and usual haunts. Ironically, none of them are Bruce's sentimental favorites. We carefully plan our meals so we can be sure to eat at all of the "good" places.
There's always shopping.
There's always swimming. Even when the native Phoenicians find it far too cold for the pool, Kiki thinks that if the suns out, her buns are out.
We went to the Phoenix Children's Museum.
They laid on a bed of nails.
There's always brother time...
...and there's never enough cousin time.
After a lonely birthday at home without us, Bruce flew in for a day-late celebration with his family.
Then we headed to Oceanside for some beach time.
We always love our stays on the beach. The girls adore their aunts and uncles and it's just relaxing.
Aunt Christy gave the girls balloon animals to play with on the long ride home, and it proved to be quite educational.
