Our last day before we go home

On the day before we left we went to visit Mandy and her little girl Marigold. After we left Mandy's moms house we went to visit my Grandma Joyce. Then it was home to pack and get ready to leave the next morning.

The Phoenix Zoo

We went to the Phoneix Zoo. The weather was so nice and the girls loved the animals.

We went to my Aunt and Uncle's house for dinner. We had a great time and were completely stuffed when we left.

Turkey Waddle for Troy

On Thanksgiving morning we went to a 5K run called the Turkey Waddle in Queen Creek to benefit Troy. Alex ran in the run and I helped to direct traffic around the runners. It probably looked pretty funny having a big pregnant lady standing in the middle of the road telling cars to stop or slow down. Luckily they gave me an orange vest so I somewhat looked like I should be standing in the middle of the street. A lot of people showed up and a lot of money was rasied for Troy!! Yeah!!

The Park

I met my friends Holly, Heather and Summer at the park to let our kids play. Later that night just us girls went out to dinner at Papa Razzini's for dinner where the owners daughter gave a check to Heather for her son Troy to help pay his medical bills. The restaurant has been doing fund rasiers to help raise money for Troy Wendt (Heather's son) who is fighting leukemia right now. The food was great!!

Playing in the sandbox at Grandma's house

The girls and I left to go to AZ 6 days before Alex came. He called to tell me that it was snowing here in Wisconsin and I said the girls are playing out in the sandbox outside and it was about 80 degrees. It was great to have a break from the cold for a few weeks.

Cowgirls

We went to my Aunt and Uncle's house for brunch and my Aunt had a lot of fun stuff for the girls to dress up in. They love to dress up.

Trip to Arizona

We went to my dads for a BBQ and bonfire the night after we arrived. Emma & Paige had a lot of fun running around, roasting marshmallows and getting to sit on Grandpa's Harley.

We went to Arizona for Thanksgiving. We had a great time. It was great to see our family and friends.
