Spring Training!

Went to a Diamondbacks/Dodgers spring training game here this month and had a ball. The Dodgers played with a split squad that day, and it turned out Manny played in the other game up in Phoenix. Bummer. However, this is the Diamondback's last season for spring training here, and there are lots of Dodger fans in Arizona so the game was sold out and the people watching was great. The kids made it through 5 innings, which wouldn't have happened if they didn't have the promise of jumping castles for good behavior. Whatever works!

Latest Looks

Miss M is big on dress-up lately and it's just about the only time I can get her to smile for the camera. The kids have been very anti-camera lately, much to my dismay!

We also buzzed Michael's hair recently, he wanted to match Daddy.

Kid Pics Again!

The M&M's cousin left his camera here the last time he visited, and we took a bunch of surprise pictures for Rulon to find when we sent the camera back. Sadly he deleted everything on the camera so he could record himself singing (he's 4, he thinks the singing is great and I suspect his mom disagrees) but luckily I copied them to our computer before I sent the camera back to the Land of Enchantment. Here's a sampling!

Never a normal smile for Mom, always something goofy.
