Marching into March

In March we had some visitors. First Grandma Arlene from Canada came. And she ended up buying a house in Ghost Ranch. A nice house, for a nice little price. We are quite happy about it. They will mostly just use the house for a few weeks or months in the winter every year. Then for spring break we had my sister and her husband and 4 girls come visit for a week. It was really fun to have them here. We did so many fun things, the girls were in heaven visiting and playing with their cousins.


Isn't March a lovely month, it was perfect weather for breakfast under the gazebo...


The girls spent a good deal playing in this little pool. Unfortunately they were all burnt to a crisp after the first day.




I didnt' know the ostrich ranch was such a fun place. Kids love feeding animals and straight from the hand is even better. Except that the ostriches were a bit ferocious, I was even scared of them.












This has become an annual photo for us, I love the childrens hike at Picacho because a 2 yr old could do it! And if its a hot day, then it is more than enough for the kids, they enjoy it.


Of course we went to the Tucson zoo, and of course it was a hot day so of course the kids soaked themselves in the spray area... lots of fun



If you haven't been to the Mesquite groves pool in Chandler, then you are missing out. For only a dollar it is a fantastic pool. Play structure with slides, real waterslides, tube ride and dive pool with boards as well. It was kind of a cold day when we went so there was hardly anyone there. I guess in the summertime, this pool fills to capacity almost every day. The kids just didn't want to leave.







28 weeks...... getting nice and round, you should see me now
