AZ Trip Day 1 - 2012

Arriving at Jen's is always exciting. 
Chataeu Jen - as we like to call it - is one of our fav spots in Mesa, AZ.

See this look? It's pure excitement. Char and I had a good scolding session to her stomach (yes. I really did bend over and wag my finger at her stomach) and told it to please behave on this trip. It was instructed that it wasn't to have any aching or pain on this trip or else! I am happy to report it is absolutely behaving like a champ. Most vacations are riddling with stomach issues for my sweet girl - which then proceed to ruin her (and my) vacation to a certain extent. I wasn't game this time.

Mr. Nate is quite the creator of ModernTechFurniture. Here is one of his creations....an old radio turned iPod docking station with a Kindle Fire screen. Love.


Jen's photographer friend captured some awesome shots of their fam recently. Loooove.

Lucas has been keeping Carter busy in airsoft wars. I don't really get the thrill of shooting AT each other - but I don't need to. Happy the boys are having fun.

Oh Mr. Boober - how did you become so sweet and cute? This is what you do when I say "smile!" Cracks me up.

I told Ava I needed to capture her missing teeth.

And then William said "Teeef Teeeeef!" and I was ordered to capture his as well.


Paige is a reader. A BIG reader....we don't see much of her - but when we do, she's lovely.

Jen is like Oprah - a lover of books. A facilitator of learning. A cheerleader of knowledge.....She has one massive library too. A girl after my own heart.


Love the modern tree this year.


Uncle Nate has a fizzy drink maker machine. The kids experiemented with grape juice. It was the highlight of Luke's evening.


And Willsie's


And Charlotte's......who serenaded us with a burp song.

Oh my - look at this missing top row! ;) 
On that note (get it?!) we ended our night. 
Excited for tomorrow! We love AZ!
