Deja vu. Sad but true.

What are the chances that this unfortunate weather would foil our family campout in April and in Arizona?  Well don't bet on those odds.  This is actually the second campout that our tent has caved in during the wee hours of the morning due to heavy snow.  A few summers ago we went camping in Bryce Canyon with the entire Steele family when we ironically experienced the same crazy weather.  SNOW, SNOW, SNOW.  Danny planned the trip in great detail, but to our dismay, he couldn't plan the weather.  Although this wasn't exactly what we had in mind when we thought of enjoying the great outdoors, we still had a great time!  

My Son the Walrus

Can you tell what we had for dinner?  After eating their ribs, Gavin and Tatum washed the bones and tried to convince me of all the creative ways they could use them.  After taking this photo I promptly disposed of the bones to prevent some future uncovering of a "burial ground" under someone's bed.

Ah Springtime...

Ok so I haven't been the best blogger, but it's because I have been very sick...with SPRING FEVER!  The weather here in AZ has been spectacular for the last few weeks.  We're talking cloudless, sunny skies with highs in the mid to upper 70's with crisp, cool evenings.    It's absolutely invigorating!  We've been busy playing at the park, hiking, playing tennis and biking the dog.   Jealous?  You should be.  At least for now, because in August when I have to wear oven mitts to drive my car I'll be wishing I lived anywhere but here.
