What We've Been up to...

Playing at the Park - Enjoying our moderate temperatures while they last!

Visiting the Local Sites - We spent a Saturday visiting Montezuma's Castle and the city of Jerome (a quaint little town for you art and antique lovers out there)

Just Too Cute Not to Post

Hanging With Livestock - This donkey just hangs out in the middle of a rural road in the town of Jerome. German and Eli thought that it was the coolest thing ever!

This One's For My Mom

I finally finished Eli's coordinating bumper pads, just in time for #3 to get some good use out them as well! Now the pale blue sheets are driving me nuts!

For anyone not familiar with my sons' room - my mom gave us my brother's old curtains and comforter and a bunch of leftover fabric. So now we enjoy a little of the wild west in their room.

Hiking in the Superstition "Mountains"

We set off yesterday morning for a fun filled day of hiking. German did such an awesome job hiking up a pretty rough route full of rocks. Eli of course would have loved to hike, but he did a better job just being carried by dad. We love AZ and many of the aspects of the desert, but as far as nature goes - it would have really been beautiful to see some trees and wild grass!

My favorite German sayings of the day:

At the trailhead: "Daddy, I'm tired of walking!"

Along the dusty and rocky desert trail: "Hey, look. I found some dirt."
