vacation to Arizona

Christmas morning we left and headed to Spring Valley to Ed's parents house. We had Christmas dinner there and played games with his brothers and family. On Sunday we had dinner with another brother and his family and played games, was so good to see all of them again. Monday We went to Bonnie's parents and while we were there the kids had a silly string fight at the park, we played at the park. Kids loved playing circle ball in grandpas backyard. One day he took them to get Thirfty's ice cream which was my favorite growing up. We also went bowling one day and Bonnie went to lunch with some High School friends one day. We did a lot of things and it was a lot of fun. We also drove by the house I grew up in, we moved there when I was 10 months old and my parents lived there till after I was married. Looks about the same, the yard is a bit overgrown and makes it hard to see. OH the memories.
We went back up to Spring Valley on New Years eve and spent it at Ed's brother Bruce's house playing games. We came home on New Years day, it was a great trip. We are so lucky to have such a great family to belong to.
