And we made great memories

If you've been wondering why I haven't updated my blog in a while, well, I've been busy! Tony's sister Christy, her 4 kids and Tony's 16 y/o brother Peter came to visit us for a week and we had a great time! They arrived Monday evening, but since I had to work on Tuesday and Wednesday, the fun didn't really begin until Thursday. Here's some fun pictures from their visit.



Thursday we took the kids to Makutu's Island . It's a huge indoor treehouse that has tons of secret tunnels to go thru and things to climb. Everyone had a blast and were completely worn out by the end of the day.

Friday we spend hanging out, trying to recover from Thursday.

Saturday, we took the kids to Freestone park in Mesa. The kids tried to feed the ducks (they weren't hungry!?!), played on the toys, and everyone rode on the train.









Later that afternoon, Uncle Peter hid candy-filled plastic eggs in the backyard. The kids were running as fast as they could to find them all.

Sunday, we went to church, came home, prepared and ate a great turkey dinner, spending the day together, along with my dad, brother and his wife. Unfortunately, Tony had to work. But other than that, it was a fabulous Easter Sunday.



Thank you for visiting! We love you guys!

Hi Connie,
It was so fun seeing you a few weeks ago. I love the colors of your blog and the reese's characters and saying...way cute! You look darling with your kids at church and I love taking the girls to Makutu's Island. It's the perfect place for kids to get their wiggles out and have some fun. What a beautiful family too.
