First Visitors!

This last weekend we had our first visitors here in AZ! Chris' parents and two of his sisters came down to get out of the cold and to see us. We had so much fun and we were sad they had to leave... but we'll be going to Utah for Thanksgiving so it won't be too long until we see them again! We spent time shopping at the outlets, swimming, eating out, playing cards, and being with each other!!!!

There was definitely time spent in the pool!



Madison's birthday was the day before they got here so we had a big bbq for her and I made her a zebra cake!




McKenna with her Papa!


McKenna with Nana!


Nana and Papa insisted on taking McKenna to Build a Bear and it was SOOO much fun! That place just makes you want to be a little kid again!


They wanted to make sure she got the one she wanted!... there were many choices as you can see!


They have you put a heart inside the bear... but they make you put wishes in the heart before that... unfortunately through pictures you can't see how they made them turn in circles etc... it was a little funny!




Thanks Nana and Papa for McKenna's build a bear puppy!!!


One night we went down to the new Cardinal Stadium Westgate, they have lots of stores and places to walk around!

One day his dream will come true and he will live on an island and do this all day long!!!


This elephant was at Cabelas!... It was HUGE!

We had so much fun and think people should come visit us more often!!!

The cake is so cute! I dream of one day being able to make cute cakes, but so far my skills are lacking.

Awesome cake! Blake just got the same doggie at Build a Bear from my mom (he can't have it until Christmas though). Of course, his is dresses manly as football player and McKenna's is cute and girlie. I think it's destiny...Blake and McKenna are meant to be together. Hopefully they can meet sometime soon!
