We Love Visitors!!!

One thing is for certain, we love to have visitors! It is always fun to have company in town! This time was no exception. Last week my mom, grandparents, and aunt were able to come visit. We had a great time. Here are some photos of our time together!

We went to Mesa to visit my grandma's sister. My Aunt and her husband served a mission in Martin's Cove where you can experience a handcart trek. She now has her own handcart which the kids love to play in.
This is Kelly giving just one of many rides in the handcart. I think he treked around the neighborhood a dozen times.

This is our 4 generation picture!

We had some freshly picked oranges and Katelyn enjoyed the peel and all!


The kids had fun playing hide and seek. Here is Carson under an orange tree.

All that treking and hide and seeking, wore the kids all out! I thought this was cute of Connor snuggling on Grandma!

My mom loves In-n-Out Burger. A visit to Phoenix wouldn't be complete without a meal here. Pretty soon she will have her very own In-n-Out in the Salt Lake area and won't have any need for us!

On Monday we went to a Spring Training game. We had a lot of fun. My mom and her parents love to go to baseball games, so it was a fun little treat for them.
This is a brand new stadium very near to our house. It was very nice. They had some activities for the kids which made it nice for when they got antsy (which was quite a few times!)

Here are the folks enjoying a fun game and the great Phoenix sunshine!


After the game we enjoyed the evening at one of our favorite parks.

We are lucky to have a lot of really nice parks close by and lucky enough to have many days with good weather to enjoy the park. In 5 days we managed to go to 7 different parks! Free entertainment, eh?

It was so great to see my family. We always have a great time. The kids love having them around! Thanks for the great visit!

It's always great having visitors over. I'm jealous of how nice the weather it is over there. I didn't realize that you're mom was in the pics. How bad is that for me? Everyone is growing up too fast, I guess.

Sounds like you had a great time. I'm glad they got to come visit.

This was so fun to see you with your children and Kelly and your parents, etc. This time of the year there seems to be "just right" weather for getting out and enjoying yourself. The parks look so delightful. What a pleasant place to live. We loved the pictures of Kelly doing the "trek" around the block over and over. He and your family would have made great pioneers.

What fun! Kaitlin is such a doll! I'm jealous of your weather. I'll be more jealous on Monday when it's supposed to SNOW here. Ugh.
