Fun in the Phoenix sun!

It's a broiling 110 degrees outside, and we are beating the heat with an inflatable alligator pool and popsicles...Then the backyard sprinklers come on and make things more interesting! The indoor pictures are of Matthew and Zach after church last Sunday.

Who says video games don't give you a workout?!

This is a video of Scott playing the Wii video game system with his cousin, Sam. Scott jumps all around as he plays because he gets so into the game...it's really funny to watch!

Phoenix kids pictures

The kids played on an outdoor (HOT HOT HOT) playplace in an outdoor mall near our house. The other pictures are of the kids dressing up in old halloween costumes.

We Made it to Phoenix!

You all know I passed my national board test and that I accepted the job in AZ doing Family Practice. We got here safe to AZ but it was one heck of a trip since I accidentally packed the box of toys Chelsy saved for the van ride over to AZ!! We had no toys for the kids, so we stopped at WalMart and let them all choose one thing. It was really hard for the kids and Chelsy (who was driving the van) and I followed them in the biggest moving truck you can get...TOWING my car behind. It was a BEAST to drive that big truck, especially because up some of the big hills it would only go 25mph... needless to say it took us 5 days to get here. We got the truck unloaded with the help of some church members, and we are unpacking the last few boxes a week later.

We turned the front room into a playroom for the kids since we didn't have any extra furniture to make a second living room.

We'll update you more when we get some new pics of the kids.

Happy Halloween and Happy Birthday Mary!

These pictures are from Halloween at the local amusement park, Idle Wild! Mary was a butterfly, Scott was the black Spiderman, and Zachary was a little monkey (how appropriate!). Mary had a fun birthday at home on October 28th, and it was a "High School Musical 3" birthday party with balloons and all.

Matthew's Blessing Day

We blessed Matthew at our church today. It was a sweet blessing...this is one special kid!
