Our trip to Phoenix

We had a wonderful trip to Phoenix this weekend. Oliver did awesome on the airplane -yay! It turns out that the DVD player did just what it was supposed to do - entertain him the entire time. Gabriella on the other hand was not such a fan of the airplane. We had many moments when we were the "screaming baby" family on the plane. Oh well - what can you do. But we had a great time visiting with our Phoenix friends, neighbors, and Matt's past co-workers.

Some highlights from the trip:
  • Driving by our old house and getting to see our neighbors the Ralphs
  • Visting Matt's old office that has been recently expanded and going to an Indian buffet with his past co-workers for lunch
  • Visiting our old church and seeing folks there
  • A playdate at a park with a bunch of friends and their now bigger kids
  • Visiting the McCoy family and seeing their new house, twin girls, and baby on the way
  • Seeing a TON of brand new babies and showing off our new baby
  • Watching LOST with our Phoenix LOST fans the Rokuseks
  • Visiting the Webbs who drove down from Flagstaff to see us - and eating with them at our usual spot - Chipotle
  • Our friends the Gepharts and Rokuseks being awesome hosts and letting us stay at their houses
  • Having dinner with the Spletters - some of the first friends we made in Phoenix
Below are a few pictures from our trip (notice the shorts and tank tops - it was 80 degrees there while it is threatening to snow today in Dallas!). Click here to see many more

Fun stuff. Sorry we missed you. We will be healthier next time you are out--promise. Enjoy the snow. Logen was just asking for some today.
