We left the desert heat for an extended weekend and visited Papa’s Beachouse in Newport Beach, CA. After a long and straight 6 hour drive west, Landon was full of joy and energy…just wait until you see how excited he was to visit the beach.
We had a fun filled day on Mother’s Day including meeting up with Great Grandma, Grandma, and Papa…going to mass in downtown Phoenix’s St. Mary’s Basilica, brunch and capped it off with bowling at Lucky Strike.
We hope you enjoy what we’re were able to capture in the bowling video. Let’s just say Landon got his fancy dance moves from Mom, not Dad.
Comment and let us know what you think.
To complete Landon’s 2 week spring break, Amanda scored some free Spring Training Baseball tickets from her work. The temperature wasn’t the only thing that was hot; Landon’s dance moves were on fire!
Oh, I almost forgot to mention…there was cotton candy too. What more could you ask for?
What a hidden gem in Arizona! This outdoor botanical garden is located just an hour from our house. It is so picturesque that walking through it is like walking through a fairy tale. Around every turn is your own secret garden (one of my childhood dreams☺️). You can experience rose gardens, herb gardens, a children’s garden, desert gardens, and even the plants of Australia. We felt such a calm and lucky to experience such wonders of nature. 🌱

Shawn always does a great job with our family photos but I have to say these are some of my favorites. Maybe it’s because we finally were able to reveal a secret we’ve been keeping for 10 weeks. We are anxious about becoming a family of four because our threesome is so great but we know babies only bring more joy. We are so proud of the family we’ve built and can’t wait to continue grow together.

Landon and I went to Dave & Busters for some more spring break fun. As you’ll see in the video, we had a great time.
Uncle James, we think you’ll like the music choice!
Landon and I had a great day swimming on our first day of our spring break together! We hope you enjoy the video; don’t forget to leave a comment for Landon.
Quickly becoming a family tradition; we visited this years display at the JW Marriott Resort again this year. The “Under the Sea” themed gingerbread village used 500 pounds of gingerbread, 1,000 pounds of candy and 400 pounds of frosting/ icing. Not to mention the creativity and imagination that went into it. This free display included free cocoa, cookies/chocolates, and letters to Santa. We can’t wait to see what next year’s theme will be!
This little guy has his room all set up for Christmas and already created his wish list at Toys R Us. In case you’re wondering if he’s deserving; the sweater says it all! Read More
