Family Time

We had a family get together to celebrate Dads birthday. It is the 1st time in awhile that we have all been able to get together. We had a great time hanging out with our nephew Nate and his buddies Fezik the turtle and Trex the dinosaur. Nate helped Grandpa blow out all his candles.

We just returned from a very relaxing trip to the
beach. We visited Fort Lauderdale, Miami, the Florida Keys,
and the Everglades. We spent most of the time relaxing on the

beach and swimming in the ocean. We were very lucky that the weather was perfect, it only rained a little a couple of days. It was hard to leave the beach and come home, wish we could be on vacation everyday!

Birthday Bash

Every year May 2nd rolls around and I celebrate another birthday, I wish I could find a way to stop this from happening. I guess since it keeps happening I will celebrate and enjoy myself. We visited the zoo, then had a BBQ and cake. I had a great day and want to send a thanks out to all my family and friends who helped me celebrate getting old:)

Wildlife World Zoo

In all the years I have lived in Arizona I have wanted to go to the Wildlife World Zoo, So as part of my birthday celebration we went. It was a really neat zoo, lots of animals. We got to feed the giraffes, see the 2 albino aligators, watch monkeys play and more. They just added an aquarium last year so we could see lots of fish & penguins.
