Picnic at Railroad Park

Today we met our friends Darrin, Angie, Stone and Ashlyn at the Railroad Park for a picnic. The kids always have so much fun together. It was a great way to end a fabulous Thanksgiving weekend.

Happy Thanksgiving!

Celebrating Grandma Shirley's Birthday

Today we celebrated my mom's birthday at Los Olivos Norte for lunch. It was a nice surprise having my Grandma Doris there too. We had a great time!

Picnic at the Zoo

Today was the company picnic at the Phoenix Zoo for Jason's work. They had yummy BBQ food catered. The kids were bummed because they ran out of the food for them by the time we got there. We had fun watching one of our favorite animals the Orangutan. The kids were giggling so hard watching the baby Orangutan play with the dad...they are so much fun to watch. We were excited to meet the new zebra babies that were born this year...especially Nolan. It was a fun family day at the zoo.

Great little sister

Nolan was home sick today with dad. Madison came home with a sweet card that had all of his friends names on it...she loves her big brother so much!

MS Walk & Baby Ashlyn!

This morning we did the MS Walk at the zoo with our friends Mark, Christal & their son Jacob. We have so much fun doing the walk. The kids loved seeing some of the animals. They also saw the Ghostbusters, Storm Troopers and Sparky the ASU mascot (Jason's fave, lol). The animals we don't see at the walk we will see next week at the company picnic Jason's work has every year. I raised $475 and Jason raised $125. The team we were on raised $1505! After the walk we went to to see our friends Angie and Darrin's new baby girl Ashlyn at the hospital. She is such a precious little baby girl. This was the first time the kids held a newborn baby. Both of them loved holding Ashlyn especially Nolan. Congrats Darrin and Angie...we are so happy for you!

Jeff's visit

Our friend Jeff came to AZ for Nascar. All of us got together at Mark's house for a BBQ. The kids were so happy to see him again. It was lots of fun getting everyone together again. The kids always have fun with Jacob. We hope to see Jeff again soon!
