Pool, Fun, Friends and Baseball...and Food!

Yay!  I love flowers!  Everything is blooming, however, in order to keep it from dying, you have to water twice a day.  When it reaches the 110 mark, I am sure we will be watering 3 times a day!

A nice pool shot

The water was even warm enough for us to get in.  Here is Marcus snorkeling.

Last week we went to a Dbacks game...we had a great time!

Our seats are just past 3rd base and about 13 rows from the front!  They are awesome!  Major foul ball territory; you really have to keep your eye on the game!

Saturday night our friends Heather and Jerry came over for dinner.  I made grilled chicken tacos with mango and black bean salsa and Heather made her amazing homemade salsa!  I also made a sangria from Bobby Flay...it was good food and always a good time we get together with them :)

Spring Break

Spring has sprung! My hibiscus survived a couple hard frosts this winter...

This was our welcome back to Kansas!

Marcus LOVED the snow

Him and his cousin Alex had a snowball fight...you can see we were a little unprepared...we didn't have gloves or hats...so we had to go to Walmart.

Marcus' first snowman!

The special lady we came to see!

The snow kept us from seeing her as much as we would have liked.  Our intentions were to bring her to our hotel, but it was way to cold and slick.  :(


The grandkids together for the first time in a long time :)
