Arizona or Bust!

Saturday night we headed out for an all-night drive to Tucson for spring break to visit Aunt Kathy & Rohn. Of course it's the Rockies' last year in Tucson, so we wanted to catch some baseball along with some warm weather. The snowy weather in Denver is enough to drive someone crazy! Steve and I drove in 3-hour shifts and arrived early Sunday morning with two sleepy girls. Sunday we napped and then walked to the park. Here's Brooklynn at the sandbox. Monday we went to the Desert Museum, which Steve and I had gone to a few years ago. We must've picked the busiest day, because we waited in line forever. The weather was beautiful but hot and the girls didn't last long. Of course the best part was having a couple rude ladies remind us that our girls were getting sunburned. They tend to turn beet red in any warm temperatures!

I love her expression!

Tuesday we walked to the Children's Museum downtown. It was a great museum, and Brooklynn loved it. We had to drag her out for her afternoon nap!

Daddy decided to stack all the bricks and then threw his body into it. It was hilarious, and I'm just glad we didn't get thrown out!

How's she doing cousin Shari?

Wednesday was the Rockies last spring training game in Tucson. They're moving to Phoenix next year (boo!) We had to dress the girls up in their Rockies gear. We decided to leave Brooklynn at home, so she could nap.

Chandler's 1st of many baseball games!

We left Wednesday evening and again drove through the night. The girls did great and slept most of the time. Although traveling with 2 kids is much tougher, we had a fun time hanging out and taking them places. Kathy made us some delicious food and now the diets start! Next weekend we'll be taking Chandler to Portland..........uh oh!
