Arizona!
We recently spent a whole wonderful week in Arizona! Can I say it was blissful? The sun was shining, the food was delicious, and the company fantastic. It was a great change from the cold, snowy world of Moses Lake.
Our flight down was delayed a few hours, but we had some great company with Anika and her boys. Macy loved having somebody to play with at the airport. We were so excited to finally get to Mesa (It was one o'clock in the morning) that we almost didn't realize that we were missing a bag! (Which ended up not arriving until Monday (four days after we arrived)... but I got some new clothes in the process, which worked out well in the end!)
We did so many fun things during the week that we were there but the pictures help explain it all the best!
Friday, Tim spent the day in Scottsdale taking a CE class about mini-implants; while I went shopping with my good friend Lisa. (It worked out extremely well that I just happened to need some new clothes!) We miss you our good friends (all of you!) but it was great to be able to spend some time catching up. I love that we can just pick right up where we left off the last time we visited. We also got to spend a majority of Sunday with Ty, Lisa, Weston, and Ashlynn!
Monday night, we went to a good old fashioned CIRCUS! The Circus was awesome complete with flying trapezes, motorcycle cage riders (even a 10-year-old boy), and a guy getting shot out of a rocket!
Macy got to see all of her cousins (Ivy, Lucy, Eli, Macy, Amelia, Aunt Sarah, and Sydney)
Tuesday was Valentine's Day! Macy got a few little presents (she loved her headbands so much that she wore two of them, she kept stealing Sydney's).
Tim and I got to spend some time in the Mesa Temple (The temple we were married in almost seven years ago. It's crazy how time goes so quickly!) followed by some delectable Charlestons for lunch. Yum. It makes my mouth water to think of their homemade croissants and honey.
We played in the warm rain!
Macy really wanted to run around with an umbrella.
My little girl is getting so big! She started talking while we were here. She now says Mama and Dada.
Fun in the rain!
Friday night, Papa Schmidt took Macy to Build a Bear. She loves her little Bella Bear!
Wednesday was a really productive day! Tim and I spent the morning hitting some golf balls at the driving range. (Tim got some new golf clubs for Christmas and had to try them out. After spending Saturday playing a round of golf with his dad he wanted to try out some of his skills at the driving range.) We followed up the driving range with some delicious In'N'Out for lunch and then a movie. It was the girls' first time going to the movie theater and Macy really enjoyed it! We saw The Muppets. It was fabulous and Tim keeps singing the songs from the movie. His favorite is "Muppet or a Man."
To finish our trip out strong... we went to a Phoenix Suns Basketball Game. It was awesome. Even though the suns lost in the last few minutes of the game. Tim and I had a fantastic time!
Thanks AZ Schmidts for a fabulous vacation. We love you!
