Phoenix at Warp Speed

We just got back last night from a WONDERFUL trip to Phoenix. Dallin had a conference to attend there, so the kids and I went along for the ride and stayed with my brother and his family. Since it's been freezing and snowy here for the last few months, I decided that I was going to jam pack our days there with lots of outdoor activities so we could soak up the nice sunny weather. So we spent our days at the zoo, the children's museum, a train park and another local community park while we were there. And since Dallin didn't have any free time, it was basically me carting my 3 kids around in the stroller at all these places. It was a little exhausting but well worth the effort. We had a ball at all of these places and we especially loved the 65+ degree, sunny weather there. The only downside of the trip was coming home to a snow covered & windy Reno!

While at my brother's house, we were introduced to the wonderful world of WII. Dallin and I cracked ourselves up playing tennis, bowling and boxing. Who knew I had a deadly "uppercut" that could knock down any defendant??!!! Well, not ANY defendant, just one. But I had fun anyway and have proclaimed myself the boxing champion of the universe after playing just 3 rounds!

Who knew it would take 2 grown men with medical degrees to put together one child's toy? :)
