Spring Break in AZ

It has been snowing a lot lately, which isn't really our cup of tea after February. We decided to head to Arizona to get some sunshine, good food, and shopping. Trevor's mom rented a house for the month of March so we popped on down for a quick weekend before we moved in (more on that later). The weather was beautiful, half of the time. The other half was nuts. Uprooted trees, rain storms, and some seriously could weather. We still love you, Arizona. Luckily there were patches of decent weather when we snuck down to the park and went "wee" about a million times. She always says "one" after every time, meaning one more. That little girl of ours lives for being outside, rain or shine. The other two days were gorgeous days spent by the pool. We got to see some of our best friends while we were down there, and it was the highlight of our trip. I love friendships where you pick right up where you left off like it hasn't been a year since you last saw each other. We also ate a lot of good Mexican food. Brooklyn left "dog" at a restaurant the first night so we were FORCED to go back and eat there again. B did us a huge favor leaving dog there. We came back and got slapped in the face by reality and started packing so we could move a week later! And it's snowing again, come on Colorado, warm up a little bit for us!








 Snack break. 


 I could just eat those cute legs!
 She is our travel queen. She didn't make a peep, got her drink, and watched a "show".

 Brooklyn has two very good looking choices for her arranged marriage.


She was always playing in the center on the court.

Favorite Things Party

So... I'm a little (a lot) behind on this whole blogging thing recently. Life has just been nuts and I feel like I'm barely staying above water. We are moving in two weeks and the excitement is mostly outweighing the stress I should be feeling. Anyways, back in December my good friend Kendria and I decided to throw a "My Favorite Things Party". She happens to be insanely talented at party throwing. It was so much fun planning and executing the party. I always love a good get together, especially one where I go home with a Volcano candle from Anthro!

Christmas Card Photo Shoot

Before Christmas, my mom had some pictures taken of the girls for her Christmas card. They turned out amazing and we couldn't love this little girl more.












Dog Sledding...

Over Christmas break we headed up to the mountains for a week. It's so magical up there during Christmas time, we just can't get enough of it. My parents took the whole family (minus pregnant Kristy and the two little girls) dog sledding and it was amazing. First, they are the sweetest dogs that could never get enough love. My dad was trying to figure out how to bring one home with us. Second, it amazes me how these dogs LOVE to run and literally can't sit still. When we got there and they told us we would be on the sled by ourselves I was a little worried, seeing as I have no experience as Iron Will.  It was easier to maneuver than I thought. It was such a cool experience and one we will never forget.

Warmer Weather


After Christmas, we headed to sunny Southern California to get some warmer weather and some much needed R&R. I always love going back to where I grew up, it will always be home to me. After what seemed like the travel day from hell, we finally got there. Brooklyn was a champ and went an entire day without napping (the first time in her whole 18 months of life). She was in heaven the entire week. She loved riding the beach cruisers from pier to pier, and would have never left the sand if we let her. She is her mother's daughter and I absolutely love her love for the ocean. We got to see great grandma and grandpa Kozak as well, which was so special for me. We spent lots of time shopping, eating, playing at the arcades, going on boat tours, whale watching, and watching Pitch Perfect. It was such a fun trip with Trevor's family and we are already missing the sun. Trevor mentions every day how he wishes we could be on beach cruisers right now. I second that.
