Arizona in February & BIG NEWS

I'm convinced that Arizona in February is heaven on earth!

We visited the Grand Canyon state and enjoyed :

Celebrating Jane's 3rd birthday!

Raiding GrandMary's dress-up room so the girls could play

pretend and whatever else for hours.

I loved when Mary would open her windows and doors to let the spring air in!

Christian and I spent a lovely ROMANTIC Valentine's Day weekend

at the Desert Ridge Resort in Phoenix.

And, as I already mentioned, we enjoyed the Arizona sun

and ate about 30 oranges every day.


Lastly, our  BIG NEWS:

We ARE MOVING TO ARIZONA next month.
 Christian has been offered a job.

New Jersey Missionaries

The missionaries came over last night for dinner.
For dessert, Claire served them chocolate chip cookies

 that we had made earlier that day together while Ollie was napping.
Before they left the house, they sang their mission theme song.

They are SUCH SWEETHEARTS!! 

 I love working with them!

Roses are red...

Roses are red, Violets are blue

Dear Miss Goosie,

I love you!
