After Wyatt's baptism I thought it's going to be a slow blogging month I have nothing big happening. Valentine's Day isn't my thing I think being a high school teacher I have learned to hate the drama of Valentines Day and whoop-d-doo Arizona in 100 how does that really affect me (I know grumpy Gus) then I read my sister's Dyan's post about why she loves Arizona and I felt humbled. I too love Arizona, I love that I can say my great grandparents were one of the first settlers (even though I am not an official native - thanks mom and dad for choosing to have me while you were at BYU) I love that my children can all say they are native and I have tried to instill that love in my children. Here we are enjoying the diversity of Arizona...

| 2006 On our way to find snow, we stopped at the Salt River and saw a herd of wild horses |

| snow only an hour from home - the kids were so little. |

2008 Outside of Globe - we took the quad and just explored
There are more pictures- but my computer is dumb, we have seen Lake Havasu, The Grand Canyon, Canyon Lake, Colorado River, Usary Pass, Verde River, Lakeside/ Showlow, all the lakes around those towns, Prescott, Sedona, Flagstaff, the Phoenix Zoo, heck I even love our back yard. I love Arizona we have seen lots and have lots more to see, I am thankful we are a state and I am thankful that our ancestors settled her, I am truly blessed. (I just need to bookmark this post in August when the 110 degree is about to kick my bootie) |
Love the post Julie, especially cause I got a shout out. You guys have really seen AZ and that is something I want my kids to have. When are we getting together next? I miss you guys.
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh. After talkin' to you today, I can't believe you old your kids are. You're nearly a grandma. They should stay as young as in your pics here. As always, it was fun yipping. Thanks for calling. And I love AZ too. Such a diverse state and amazing, especially Prescott Valley. I hear that's where it's at.
