SUN CITY

Rodrigo turned 8! on April 4th. That, of course, was also Easter, so we decided to celebrate on Saturday night! It came complete with a Star War cake and presents! Lots of Legos and other fun stuff! Happy Birthday to my boy!






















































Easter Sunday was a GREAT day! The weather was perfect. It was great to worship together at Allen's parents' church. My mother-in-law is the organist for a large Methodist church and it is alway a treat to hear her play! I loved being with family and doing things together! You can get the feel of the intensity that was felt during the Easter Egg Hunt (in spite of the bad picture!). I won't forget this Easter for a long time. To me, it was just about...perfect.











































































On Monday, we went for a hike in the White Tank Mountains. On the previous Saturday, Allen and the boys had gone to a baseball game (preseason). Allen hurt his right calf... So much that he was walking with crutches on Saturday evening. He was in a lot of pain! At any rate, he was determined to go on this hike with all of us. Sure enough, he trekked up the mountain like a pro. He is still limping around a bit so I know that it was hurting him on Monday. I'm glad he came. It was so much more fun having him there. Before the hike, Kristin had the boys stretching for the big work out!!! :)












































































The desert was in bloom. It was really very beautiful. I don't think I have ever seen so many blooming things in Arizona at one time!
