Their men, MANLY men

Silly Gavin!

View from the Mountain, the Tram ride was so cool! The floor of the tram rotated so you could see the mountain granite as well as the view down on the valley.

Mike and Kristi and their 2 boys left at home.
Gavin just graduated waiting on a call, I bet it will come next Friday (July 3) Bo will be a Junior! When did that happen. Bo was complaining about his shoes being too tight. We measured him and he has grown about 3/4" since April. I hope he will still grow some more. We sure love these boys, we can't wait till Trevor get home 11 more days!

One more picture, the resort was lovely!

We had a blast! At the end of May we went on a 1 week vacation to Indio, California
It is near Palm Springs, we stayed at the World Mark Resort and we had so much fun
Swimming in the lazy river and the big pool and the little kiddy pool was really
fun for these little boys. We played tennis and 2 days we had a H-O-R-S-E contest
which Grandpa Mike won both days! (he will never let you forget that either)
We went to the Air Museum one day and we went on the Palm Springs Tram which
takes you up the mountain 8,000 ft. and we had a little picnic up there. It was beautiful
to look over the floor of the dessert and the beautiful city of Palm Springs.

Spring Break

To start our week we had a new baby grand DAUGHTER born Sunday March 22. We planned to go to Tucson for Spring Break. I hitched a ride with Shea and Yvette and family to Pima on Sunday evening. We arrived at the hospital to see Morgan at about 7:45, I think. Shar was doing well and it was fun to meet our new baby. She is so sweet and soft, I'm awed at the miracle of birth. What a wonderful thing it is! I stayed to help with Chauncy's boys on Monday and Tuesday and then Tuesday afternoon Mike and Gavin and Bo came to get me and we went to Tucson. We stayed at the World Mark Resort. On Wednesday we went shopping and to the Zoo, when you shop with boys/men, it really doesn't take that long, they cant stand it any longer than neccesary. It's rather frustrating. The Zoo was fun. It's small and doesn't take very long to see everything. I was impressed with the closeness you get to the animals. We watched the polar bear swim and we could've touched him if the glass wasn't there to protect 'him'. The monkey's put on a show for us and went swinging in their cage, that was fun to watch. Gavin clapped. The tiger came and walked to the near side of his cage and peed right on the wall in front of us, we felt so lucky to witness that! The giraffe's habitat was really neat. You can watch them eat out of these baskets that are eye level, that was very interesting. We enjoyed the Zoo. Then on the next day we got tickets for the baseball game, Rockies vs Dodgers. It was 73 but windy. The game was not that exciting.... but we enjoyed it. As we were leaving the game Shea called and said that it was snowing in Snowflake so it was even more fun to be in Tucson. On our way back to our resort we went by to pick up Jakki she was in Tucson for Spring Break also, staying with her brother who is going to the UofA. We sat in the jacuzzi for a while then we made some delicious chicken and veggies for dinner. It was fun to get to know Jakki she is a sweet girl. The next morning we played some tennis before we had to pack up and go.
The neighbor next door was feeding some havalina (sp) wild pigs. Out the back door of our place. He was feeding them carrots, he said they like bananas too. So we went and got the banans we had left and sure enough they came right up to our back porch b-bque area and ate all that we threw to them. There were 5 in all. That was kinda fun. We drove home through Gilbert we stopped by Aunt Ann's to sign some papers. Then we came on home. On Saturday Mike and Bo finished his last Merit Badge - Home Repairs. They finished fixing the linoleum in the pantry and made the trap door stronger so you don't feel like you might fall through. It looks good and I'm so glad to have all his Merit badges done. Now we can finish the paper work and hopefully have a court of honor when Trevor gets back and before Gavin leaves.
We all went glofing on Saturday, we wanted to go while in Tucson but it was really expensive. So we golfed with Bo here. He is enjoying being on the golf team. His face is getting very dark from being out in the sun already. He is getting tall and handsome. "He's alway been handsome" I love my family.... seems like this was the spring board for another busy summer, hopefully we'll keep you posted.
