Spring Break 2011

We had a wonderful spring break. We kicked it off by visiting Zion National Park - one of our favorites. It was cold, but we practically had the park to ourselves. We had a lot of fun. We went to Flagstaff from there and caught up with a lot of friends and family. We almost were snowed in when a spring snow storm hit. The interstate closed down for a little bit, but we were able to get out and head to Phoenix.

Once we got to Phoenix, we went to a spring training game at the D-backs new stadium. We had a blast and were so happy to finally see the sun for the first time in months! You can tell by their huge smiles that the boys loved every minute.

While we were in Phoenix, we went to a railroad park. The boys - particularly Austin - loved it. We watched a huge model railroad display, rode on a miniature train (Preston and Jackson rode in the "jail" car) and played on the playground equipment. It was a beautiful, warm day and we made the best of it!

From Phoenix, we headed to Parker to visit Gordon's parents. We had a fun visit and had to head for home too quickly. It was a whirlwind vacation, but we enjoyed every minute of it!
