Train Park & Golden Spoon

 This was our second time to the Scottsdale Train Park.

The kids remembered it from 2 years ago.

 I can't believe that Golden Spoon still exists.

Our 10th grade hangout spot is still going strong

in Arizona, just not in Utah.  It was fun to see it

hasn't changed.  Mirrors and all.

Huffman Oasis

The best part about Arizona....Cousins!!

 The Huffman Oasis

This Spring the Huffman's moved from North Scottsdale to

Paradise Valley, near Camel back golf course.

  Their house is beautiful, and has tons of palm trees.

They were kind enough to let us stay in their guest house,

and to treat us like royalty!

 Abby and Emme the cutest 9 year olds.
They both look so cute in their glasses.

 Ella loves the twins,

Haldey and Chloe.

She wishes they were triplets!

 RJ turned 2 while we were there.

I can't believe our babies are both going to be 2.

We think RJ and Lucy could be twins.

They look so much alike and are only

3 months apart.

 Riding scooters...

  Playing together...

 Riding camels at the Zoo.

Cousin love is strong! 

 We are so grateful we could spend a week in the Valley of The Sun

with some of our favorite people!

We had a great time exploring, climbing up and

down the ladders, and thinking about what it would have been like

to live here so long ago.
