fun with family

On February 14 one of my dreams came true....a trip with my 4 daughters.  We chose Arizona for a spa week-end.  Here we are meeting up at the Phoenix airport.

First things first....we headed to the spa to make our schedule for the week-end.

Yes, there was lots of silliness

This is just one of the views from one of the pools.  I have always loved waterfalls, and the sound of the water  was just as relaxing as the spa.

I love hanging out with this wonderful group.  And it's especially cool because we are related.

A couple of weeks after our spa week-end Katie brought Cory to Utah so we could finally meet him.  It was such fun having them here in Logan for the week-end.
 

The day after Katie and Cory headed back to Oregon, Carl and I drove a truck of furniture out to Jen and Mike in Colorado.  We got to watch Lucy at her Karate class.  We love it that she loves having Grandpa and Grandma follow her everywhere.

Grandpa got to swim with Reid during swimming lessons.

Carl had to head back to KL but I still have Megan and family close.  For St. Patrick's Day Megan prepared a green meal....it was lots of fun but a little freaky eating green mashed potatoes.  I still had seconds.

Next adventure....Washington DC with my Mom.  Britt calls it 'her' city and she did a great job showing us all around.   She wore us out and she said we wore her out.  It was awesome.

I even got to see some Rothko at the National Art Museum.

Mom got to get her picture with Lincoln

We got to feel the peace at the Washington D.C. temple.

We got to Arlington Cemetery just in time to see the changing of the guards at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier.

Britt drove us out to Mt. Vernon to see George Washington's Estate and learn some interesting history. You can't help but enjoy history in a whole new light when you get to spend some time in D.C. and the surrounding area.
Thank you so much Britt.

Home again.  I love the travels and the adventure but I also love coming back to Logan.  I caught this moment just after an early evening rain a few days ago.  It doesn't get much more beautiful than this.
