Arizona

We decided to drive out to Arizona this summer to visit with Aidan and Laura. It is a LONG LONG way! We ended up driving straight through as Andrew is a marathon driver (I managed a record 3 hour driving stint and a couple of 2 hour ones too) All in all we arrived 31 hours after we left. (Yep thirty-one!!) Like I said, a long way.
We have packed a lot into the three weeks we have been here, and though Aidan and Laura may be glad to get back to some peace and quiet, it has been a lot of fun!
The first week we went houseboating to Lake Mead.

Andrew and Aidan both jumped from this high cliff (Aidan did it twice)....the kids were not allowed!
Daniel jumped his first wake!

I skiied for the first time!
The cousins had TONS of fun together (here in The Venetian in Las Vegas)

Jordan jumping from the houseboat...

Anyway, it has been great, lots of swimming in Aidan and Laura's pool (a few cases of swimmers ear), non stop playing, movies, games, soccer in the street, lots and lots of meals, dishes and laundry but mostly lots of great memories.
