Tucson...Part 1

It was about that time for us to head to Tucson to visit with the family.  Jason had a work trip in Vegas so that was the perfect time for us to go.  And it was right before school started for the boys so it was the perfect end of summer activity.
The boys were so excited to see their cousins and have since been talking about them non-stop.  Since it was right around Trevin's birthday, my mom and I took him to Toys R Us to pick out some toys with the birthday money GG gave him.  He picked out a cheap plastic pig bank from the dollar bin and a pack of Pez and he was happy.
The next morning, Ry couldn't wait to go on one of his famous Ahwee walks.  Each time he would come back from a walk, he would have some new Tucson treasure.  We must've left with half of the rocks and dead cactus in Arizona to bring back to California
We picked the absolute hottest week to go to Arizona.  The temp was about 115 every day.  This meant we spent most of our time in the pool. 
Trevin was in the pool at 7am and swam until about 11am.
 Ryden was completely happy watching from the sidelines.  He hasn't been to keen on swimming lately.
I was happy to join Trevin in the pool because I was roasting to death just watching him...
This also gave me plenty of time to practice my back dives..
 I literally had to drag Trevin out of the pool before he got water logged!  
We got dressed and headed out to look at GG's new house...again.  Man...it's so awesome.  The boys would've spent all afternoon in there..Also, Uncle Dale made a surprise visit which was radical.  Uncle Dale called my dress the "Mullet".  Party in the front, business in the back (because it's long in the back) haha
Time for some popsicles!
We cleaned up and then headed to a charity event for Marcy's friend Blaire.  We stayed for about 30 minutes and then left.  It was just too hot outside and the boys were tired and cranky..At least Trev looked cool. No diggity
Ma and Pa were nice enough to keep an ear out for the boys after they went to bed so I could go meet up with my old Wherehouse friend, Melinda.  It has been over 10 years since I last saw her.  We had such an awesome time playing catch up!
Good first days in Tucson even if we did melt.
