Yikes! A month between posts? I'm a bad blogger. Oh well. Moving on!
Last month we went back to AZ for a variety of celebrations. First we celbrated the 65th anniversary of my granparents. Can you imagine 65 years!? Most of my family made it out to celebrate the event. It was great to see the boom of babies in the family (cousin Ayden was born 2 days after the event) and to have more time with all my mom's siblings and a lot of my first cousins.
We raced down to Tucson and celebrated Thanksgiving with the Gideons. The 8 days that Kai and I spent in Mesa really reminded me that it is nice to have longer periods of time to visit our families. A fly by the seat of your pants weekend is just too exhausting and quality time is few and far between. Soon we'll have to take a longer trip to Tucson too.
The Saturday after Thanksgiving we celebrated the pending arrival of my sister's baby with a co-ed baby shower. "Babies, Burgers and Beer" was the theme complete with relay races, a baby name March Madness game, and a Nacho fountain that got a little stopped up. :-( Oh well, the beer was tasty and the burgers were superb! It's hard to believe that Katie & Josh's little lady will be here in 7 weeks! More cousins, so exciting.
Here are a few photos of the week:
