Spring break was spent in Phoenix - March 31 till April 7. Graham and Charlie got to spend some time with their cousins:
Bob and I got to play some golf with my sister and her hubby. They were visiting from Minnesota:
The boys got to enjoy some time in the backyard:
That tricycle is so old and small, it's amazing how Graham is still able to ride on it!
The roses are blooming nicely. Here is the other one:
We spot jack-rabbits beyond the fence and also a coyote one afternoon! The gecko is quite the normal sight too:
Looks like there are 2 nests up in the trees. The birds are so noisy especially in the mornings!
It's a losing battle with this tree and all the leaves that are falling. This was the second time that week that I had swept up the leaves. And now I guess we can't get rid of the tree because of the nests??!!?
At least "Bob" the cactus (from my college days) is making a comeback. I spot 3 new baby off-springs/arms. Yay!!!
I was so close to throwing out our golfer wind-spinner. It was getting really squeaky and thankfully some WD-40 did the trick. It really does need a new paint job. Next time:
We did add this airplane spinner to our yard collection. There is a small solar panel in the front so the propeller/spinner lights up at night:
We never miss our chance to go to Lowe's and ride the mowers:
We now send Graham to return our DVD rentals :-D
Amazing how a steering wheel cover can make up so much time in the backseat for Graham and Charlie:
Only 0.6 miles more to go before we get off US Route 91 on the way back to Cali. Grrrr... I do not like this freeway!!!
We were making such good time until we encountered this. Thankfully, the boys were busy watching "Chitty Chitty Bang Bang" and things started moving along after the police were able to clear up the accident ahead.
Hopefully it won't be too hot the next time we are back in Phoenix. It was already in the low to mid 90s this past Spring break!
