Spring Break

A couple of weeks ago was Spring Break for Gracey. We didn't have big plans to do anything for it but a couple of days before it began, I text my sister in law and said "can we come hang out next week?" Luckily, it was her son's Spring Break as well! Perfect timing. So me and the ladies drove down to Phoenix to spend 4 full days in the sun!

The weather was absolutely perfect! And when I say perfect, I MEAN perfect! One morning I went on an outside run for the first time since last October. It totally trumped the enjoyment of the treadmill! I could smell every blossom and flower that was growing and I could feel the sun on my back, but it wasn't super hot!

Perfect, I tell you.

And the kids, they played outside for HOURS every day with each other! They were in heaven. They pushed each other on the swings, they had picnics, threw frisbees, and they blew (or spilled, however you want to look at it) bubbles!


One day, the kids wanted a bit of a scene change, so we loaded up and spent nearly 3 hours playing at the park. We had to go home 2 times for potty breaks, but the kids weren't finished....and neither was I! They loved playing in the sand and as you can see, my totally white legs rocked the shorts! If you think I couldn't care less, you would be right!


The kids also had a lot of fun with food. One night, they got to decorate their own pizza. Then for dessert, we went and got some frozen yogurt!


Thank you Whipple Family, for letting us hang for a while!
