Easter

Easter in the beautiful sunshine with your cousins couldn't get any better.   What a special day to be treasured!!

We had so much fun dying those Easter Eggs.   And, even more fun during the Easter Egg Hunt.

The Easter Bunny brought us some fun toys, hair accessories, and books.   How did he know just what we wanted?

Fun at Home

After all the fun at the resort it was time to head back to the "Dahl resort".   We had to spend some good quality couzie time.   First on the list was a little game of Bean Bamboozled.

 And, riding in the car.

Books to read and projects to color.

Running in the morning with Auntie Megan

And last but not least.    POOL TIME!!

Superbowl bet

Auntie Megan made a bet with Gabe.   She bet against the Broncos and lost.   In order to repay the bet we had to wait until she could come all the way to Arizona. 

Auntie Megan had to come all the way to Arizona and take Gabe Paint Balling.   Paint Balling in the hot, dusty, desert.

When you are the best Aunt in the world you will dress up in camo and run around in the sand with your nephew and about 20 other teenage boys...trying to avoid getting shot.  This is certainly a true proof of her love.

The Resort

When Auntie Megan came to visit we decided to vacay Arizona style.   Tapatio Cliffs Resort in Phoenix.    A beautiful place in the desert with lots of room to explore, swim, and enjoy each other.

Our favorite spot was poolside.   Poolside with a few drinks and 6 crazy kids!!   They had a water slide that the bigger kids loved and, Eli was determined to go down.    It took him an hour to be convinced but he FINALLY went down it and he loved it also.   Gabriel was very patient with him as he stood on the top with him the whole time.

Addy was our little fish.   She loved being able to swim all day. 

G-ma and Pop preferred sunbathing to swimming.

Springtime in Phoenix brings amazing colors.

We also found some hiking trails and went on a walk about in the desert.

The resort had several hidden pools throughout the property.   We found the cutest little pool tucked up behind our motel room.

Yes, this is the pool that Eli and Gabe decided to jump into with their clothes and shoes on.   Oh well, it was just water.

 This is the way to enjoy Spring Break 2016!
