Arizona/Utah/Arizona/Chicago

The boys and I arrived in AZ. the first of June.(It was a long flight with a long layover and they lost my luggage, which I got at 11pm that night) They started swim lessons, which they loved and hated at same time. They played lots with cousins and puppies, but they loved teasing Grandpa the most!!

Garett got there a week later(surprising us a few days earlier). Garett was eager to get to regain his post of world's coolest dad so he took the boys and cousin to zoo! (See below post). The goat was the favorite animal they saw.

The next day we went  down to Tucson to help Garett's mom move into a new apartment. (On the way back the tire in my dad's truck blew out, we were very lucky that it happened when and where it did) . On the 17th of June we left Phx to go to Kanab to visit our favorite adopted grandparents, the Robinsons. While we were there they boys were able to ride a pony, go to the coolest public swimming pool ever and drink 5 gallons of homemade grape juice. There favorite toy to play with was the bird bath!

We then went to SLC to visit, Super(they didn't understand what great meant) Grandma and pa Jackson, Uncle Chuck and family and Aunt Sue and Uncle Dan who were visiting from California.  We went to the zoo and got trapped there because of the rain. We also celebrated Father's day, which meant a lot of really good food. The boys loved being the main source of entertainment. While there they enjoyed playing with a bird bath at Super Grandma and pa's house and the one at Uncle Chucks!!

While in Utah we went and saw my childhood friend Bre and family. It was really fun to see her house and how big her kids are.

Above is a picture of all the men on Father's day and below is us at the zoo!

The next stop on the trip was Showlow to visit Grandma and pa Jackson. Instead of a bird house the boys got to play in a fountain, which they clogged with pine needles. We also went on a hike, which was just a little to long for these stroller loving boys.

We then headed back to AZ. And Finally the last stop on the trip was to Chicago. Such a lovely place (I am saying this was grinding my teeth together).  After a 5 hour layover they cancelled the flight. So I then had to take me and my two tired boys and my dog who really had to pee to a hotel. After eating and taking care of the dog, the boys fell asleep watching a movie at 10:30pm. We had to wake up at 3:30 to catch the shuttle back to airport so we could fly home. Needless to say I am so done traveling, but we still need to travel up to Canada!!!
