Arizona Vacation

This year we decided that we would drive to Arizona. Ryan drove us out and then flew home and came back three weeks later for a quick family picture! We drove to San Antonio for a wedding reception on Friday and stayed the night there. The kids were great, but the valet damaged the car while we were leaving so they got really tired and I was not looking forward to the hotel that night, but they did great. We drove all the way Saturday and the kids were awesome - stopping to feed Atley every four hours and Mickey Mouse Clubhouse on the dvd player worked wonders. Before heading to the airport on Sunday we stopped by Grandma Grace's and got to visit with her. We sure love her and we were so glad she got to see the kids. The next three weeks are kind of a blur, but we loved every crazy minute of it. The kids and I had so much fun with Mama and Bampa and all the aunts, uncles, and cousins. Bennett and Asher really hit it off and Asher and David really hit each other! I got to meet sweet Brooklyn and little Addy and feel a little sad that Atley won't grow up with those two so close, but maybe we can get Uncle Kason out here! We swam, had huge FHE's, family dinners, open gyms, movie night, crazy family pictures, late nights, big kid haircut, cousins played and I loved having someone to do something with all the time. We missed Ryan, but had so much fun. We took two days to come home and sure missed Arizona when we got back to Texas. Here is some pictures of our fun filled weeks:
