Spring Break #2

We left Wednesday for the trip of a lifetime! We flew to Phoenix early that morning. The kids were so excited to fly, and Ruby, who knows what goes through her head!?
We left so early on Wednesday morning that we ate breakfast at the airport. They are fresh and excited!
On the plane
Ruby watching the Backyardigans on the airplane.
One of the HIGH lights of the trip was the mini van. The kids requested that we rent one. They were in heaven. Colin looks great driving that!!
When we got into town we had to kill a couple of hours. We went to this cute train park in Scottsdale. We had a great time, aside from the constant pestering of "When can we go to the hotel?"
One of my ALL time favorite places to eat in NYC is Grimaldi's pizza. They have one in Old Towne Scottsdale. We wasted no time, and ate there our first meal.
The view from our most amazing hotel room!
The kids program that they have at the hotel is sponsored by Nickelodeon. So, they got slimed!!


Hanging out in the room. Ruby LOVES to smile for the camera.
Sisters

One day Ruby got into a fountain and she was cold so I had to strip her down. Can you say, White trash?
POOL TIME, this is what we did the majority of the time. This is WHY we came to Arizona.





Jack loved the waterslide and on a daily basis went down at least a million times. (Give or take)
Dad is so fun to be with and swim with. He is a kid at heart.



There was about 15 random pictures of this on my camera!
We went to the zoo one day, they got to ride a camel.
We ran into great friends, the Luekenga's
Keirland Easter Bunnies
Sponge Bob
We went to a candy store and Hank got a Gigantic GUMMY bear. Colin was disgusted.
We went to the aquarium the last day. Ruby loves animals.
We met our friends Trevor and Melissa at the BBQ place in Chandler. It was yummy and good to see our old friends.

On the way out
She insisted (Funny,huh?) that she pull her own suit case through the airport.

They love this little girl!
