Spring break 2013

We were Arizona bound this spring break to pay G'ma & G'Pa a visit and soak up some warm weather...which did not disappoint....sun and mid 80's everyday and after a pretty harsh Michigan winter it was welcomed! Here's the shakedown of our trip.
Big Hugs all around for G'ma & G'pa!
We stuck to the normal activities on the compound which is exactly what we wanted.....Here we are at Grandpa's baseball game.

Brady being Grandma's electric blanket.
The man in action......
Sideline cheer squad!
Batter up......
Hair stylist Brooklyn.
Doesn't matter if we were at the baseball game or the Royal wedding as soon as the clock hits 11:00....the kids are here. They talked about it all winter long, this is the one spot they wanted to be, so we did.
as evidenced by the pruney hands......
Chris and I took a trip out to Tuscon, toured the campus, relaxed at the pool, shopped and took in the sights.....
Never too far away when you are requested to text a nosy daughter pictures of what we are doing.....
Got to eat a delicious Mexican fiesta......
