Going Roping up in the Mountains

We just got back from going up north to some cooler weather. We left on Thursday and went to Payson first and stayed the night there at Clint's parents house. Friday we left Payson and headed up towards the rim and went to Snowflake. The weather was so nice, we were actually able to be outside and not be miserable. Well at least in the shade, but I know that those who were roping out there on their horses in the sun were pretty hot! Saturday night we went back to Payson and stayed there one more night then came home today. It was a fun time and a much needed break from the heat. Oh ya, and the roping was fun too.

How We Spent Our Summer Vacation!!

On Saturday we got home from a week vacation in San Diego. It was a lot of fun. We stayed at a condo right on the beach at Mission Bay. It was so beautiful there. I loved waking up in the morning and looking out the window to see the water. It was definitely a different view than I get at my house in Casa Grande! It was a busy week but we did a lot of fun things. We went to Sea World, went snorkeling at La Jolla, spent lots of time at the beach skim boarding, boogie boarding and just laying out trying to get tan. We also managed to get some great shopping in at the outlet mall right by the Mexico border (Which was actually really nice, better than Palm Springs!) And the guys went deep sea fishing twice. Tacey and Cash had a lot of fun. I couldn't get Tacey out of the water even though it was pretty cold. She had no fear and would just run right into the ocean no matter how big the waves. It was a great vacation and I can't wait to go next year, maybe for 2 weeks!

Just Playin Outside

Tacey and Cash love to be outside. They could spend all day out there and love every second. Tacey loves to play in the water and Cash just likes to crawl around in the grass and try to catch up to Tacey. We spend a lot of time in the backyard, even when I think it is too hot!

Memorial Weekend

Well a few weeks ago for the long Memorial weekend we stayed at a resort in Tucson. The original plan was to swim and hang out at the resort. It ended up being too cold to swim so we ended up doing the tourist thing. We went to Tucson Zoo (which I love way more than the Phoenix Zoo), Tombstone and just saw the "sights" of good old Tucson AZ. Oh and I did manage to squeeze in a 80 minute massage at the day spa!! It was a lot of fun, but maybe next time we can actually go swimming!!
