Fred and I drove our new Outback to Phoenix for the Labor Day Weekend.
I took Friday off so we had 4 days. The drive wasn't too bad and the weather felt the same as here in St. George. We arrived about 5PM.
I didn't take any pictures that first evening. We mostly sat in the family room with the TV on and visited and watched the boys. Bedtime was a hard this night because we were there and Evan was not ready to call it a night. Fred and I ran out to Zepe's for sandwiches and soup for dinner.
Saturday I woke up to Scott and Fred hanging out with the boys.
I think Fred is reading instructions for the smoke alarms he installed at home after the fact.
Saturday mornings before everyone is up is quiet TV time.
Graham was checking out Fred's cereal.
It looks like a tough job.
Graham likes climbing the stairs. Someone ends up nearby just in case.
Evan is playing with the sticker book I brought for him.
It was a hit. It kept his attention for a long time.
The stickers were super easy to peel off and use over and over.
Which he did.
This was our swim day. The water is just right.
It's a great pool with a lot of ledge for the little ones.
Evan is not bashful at all in the water. He loves to put his head in the water and just float.
It's amazing to watch him.
Grandpa hanging out with Evan.
See I went in too.
This is the view from the master bedroom window.
Isn't it a fantastic layout!
Scott started a fix it project. I think it was great to see them together.
Scott does such a fantastic job maintaining his home.
The boys can never get enough of Jess.
I am so impressed how she remains calm when things get chaotic.
I liked seeing how Jess and Scott help each other with the boys.
They are such a great team.
Lots of pictures of Graham in his high chair.
He really is happy almost all the time.
Very free with sharing his smiles.
Saturday day night Fred and I ate out at Claim Jumpers. We did that so we wouldn't be home when it was bedtime. Hoping that the boys went down without worrying about us.
We came home and the boys were asleep so Scott and Jess went out.
They went to Claim Jumpers too. Jess had never been there before.
Sunday school.
These are Grahams first shoes.
Isn't he such a handsome boy!
You can see I lounged in my PJs all weekend.
Little Bright Eyes here.
Here's another picture of Graham working on the stairs.
We had a BBQ on Sunday and Jess made me a delicious Peach Cream Pie for my birthday.
I should have taken a picture before we dived in. It was quite heavenly.
Evan is always up to helping in the kitchen. Lots of taste testing the whip cream that Jess whipped up.
She put almond extract in it and it was AMAZING!!
Sunday afternoon we lounged around. Watched the boys play while we watched
On the Basis of Sex - the movie about Ruth Bader Ginsburg. It was really good.
Then we watched Woman in Gold.
Fred and I are easy to please. When we visit the kids we just want to hang out.
Watch them in their element.
This is a happy family. Beautiful and happy little boys and parents who love one another and work together as a strong team. It's great to see!!
