It was so cold...

A few weeks ago our whole family took a trip to Arizona to bury my grandpa. He passed in late April and we choose to have the memorial on Father's Day weekend. It was a fun filled and crazy weekend, we had 2 vans jammed pack with baby crap. We had 10 adults and 3 babies! Despite all the driving we did that weekend, it was such a joy to see where my mom grew up and places where she loved to visit. It was wonderful taking Ethan there, even though he won't remember it we have pictures to show him. We definitely will be taking him back there again to visit.

Crazy Ethan


Last night Ethan was so cute, he was watching the tv and taking a part his crib. He likes to pull up the matress and then standing on it so he can be higher or he pulls it up and sits underneath it. He is so funny, lots of personality.

Victoria, British Columbia





The beautiful Empress hotel- I got a massage there!!!!

Last Thursday and Friday we went across the water and visited Victoria British Columbia. We had a great time! We were able to make it up to Butchart Gardens, it was so beautiful. I have never seen so many beautiful flowers and it all kept up so nice. After that we checked into the bed and breakfast, The Humboldt House. It was great, we had a two bedroom suite. In the morning the innkeeper brought us a beautiful breakfast in a basket, the breakfast was delicious. After that I got a scrub and a massage at the Empress, it was fantastic! Later that day we shopped and enjoyed the sites around Victoria. We definitely will be making a trip back.
