We decided to escape the cold and head to AZ for Christmas. We went from a very snowy cold morning to warm sunny afternoon in one day and it was wonderful.
Kids finished decorating the Christmas tree right when we got to Grammie and Granpa's house.
We played at the park and enjoyed being outside.
The kids had a lot of fun at the i.d.e.a. Museum. Grammie and I enjoyed it too. We hung out and did puzzles while the kids explored.
Via helped with dishes and made a big watery mess. She loved it.
Mom and I completed a puzzle.

A wonderful Christmas Eve at Aunt Fay's house. Then they all came over to Mom and Dad's house for Christmas.

The four of us drove to Sierra Vista, AZ to visit Denny's cousin Brian and his sweet family.
Olivia and Emily had so much fun playing princesses, dolls, singing, and jumping on the trampoline.
Ike and Jesse played with remote control cars, nerf guns, wrestled, played some video games, and jumped on the trampoline.
Brain and Denny hanging out.
In Mesa the kids got to play bocce ball and a bit of pickle ball.
Golf cart rides, of course!
Grandpa decided the kids needed a quick spin on this at Target.
And before we knew it the time had flown by and we are back in CO.
In AZ I also made an overnight trip to Tucson to see Jessie Blaydes for an afternoon/night. We all had so much fun we are thinking about going back for spring break.
