IN-N-OUT

We were excited to go to In-N-Out while we were in Phoenix!!! They have such tasty burgers and fries. Thanks to Tonya, we knew to order our cheese burgers "animal style," which means extra sauce, extra pickles, and grilled onions...yum!!!

Even though it was great food, we were so glad to share it with our wonderful family! We went twice...once with Tonya and her kids and another time with my grandma!

Enjoy the pictures!

Reconnecting With College Friends

Last week we were in Phoenix to visit family and to reconnect with friends from college! Some of these friends we hadn't seen for 9 or 10 years...wow, time sure passes by quickly.

I felt like we were back in college laughing and joking with these friends. The funny thing was there were a bunch of kiddos running around and two of them were mine.

The picture to the right is Tim and his three roommates.

Railroad Park

On Monday morning we took a trip with Tim's sister Tonya's family to the Railroad Park in Phoenix! We packed a lunch of peanut butter & jelly sandwiches and loaded up two vans full of kids. We followed James & Tonya in their new blue van that said "B Bunch" on the back window.

Joseph was excited to ride on the train. Faith kept saying, "Train! Choo choo!!" We got our tickets and Joseph sat down next to Daddy while Faith sat between her cousins Tori and Jackie. We had a fun time waving at people. Joseph screamed as we went through the tunnel...silly boy!

After the train ride we went to the carrousel. Tim held on to Joseph, but I had to ride the horse with Faith. The kids played on the playground before we ate lunch. Then after lunch the boys played catch in the field, while the girls whisked Faith away to go down the slide some more.

It was a fun day! We're grateful to be able to spend this time with family, making lots of fun memories!

Chick fil-a

We have enjoyed eating at some restaurants that we can't find in the Middle East. Chick fil a is one of our favorites! I'm sure we'll be sick of it by the time we go back overseas. 

The kids love to play in their play area. They always hope that the cow will be around so they can shake his hand and give him a hug!
