The day before we left for Phoenix, I came down with a stomach bug. 24 hours later I was feeling pretty good. It seems that each year when we decide to go to Arizona, one of us gets sick and then we end up giving it to our family members in Arizona. I was hoping that it was just something I ate.
However, on Tuesday Tyler started complaining about his stomach hurting. Then by Thursday afternoon he didn’t feel good at all. He was able to enjoy swimming earlier in the day which is pictured below. Tyler is seen here on the couch taking full control of the remotes as he waiting for his stomach to feel better.
I just love this picture. Lauren and Ava look so cute. When we would wake up in the morning, Lauren would immediately ask if we could go swimming. In the mornings it was around 55 to 60 degrees. A little chilly if you ask someone who lives there. But all Lauren would see if blue skies and she figures that means its time to go swimming.
It was nice to have Mom and Ava come with us this time.
Lauren must have jumped in about 1000 times each day. She really played hard. When night time came, she would just crash.
Tyler is quite the swimmer now. It is fun to watch him play and take on the pool without having me be in there the whole time.
When I think of swimming, this is what I think of. When I get in the pool, the kids just want to climb on me.
After my Mom got off work, we all headed to Scottsdale to stay at the Scottsdale Marriott at McDowell Mountains. My cousin Martin works there and we wanted to check out his hotel. We also wanted to watch a baseball game on Friday and his hotel was closer to the ball park.
As we were driving to the hotel, Tyler was not feeling well at all. He was as white as a ghost. We checked in at the front desk and got the keys to our room. We then entered the elevator and headed down two levels. Right as we exited the elevator, Tyler pukes all over this beautiful marble floor! I quickly called the front desk and asked them to come clean it up. I asked Tyler if he was OK and he said he felt great now! This was not the way we wanted to start off our stay at the Marriott.
Lauren immediately wanted to go swimming which she did. Tyler and I stayed in the room and watched BYU lose to Florida. That was a frustrating ending. Jimmer just couldn’t hit anything.
We ordered room service and then called it the night.
You love it here. You want to move here don't you? That would totally clear up any issues I have with having time to get around the room to talk to everyone at family gatherings. We could just go out any time!
ReplyDeleteWe do love it there! Beautiful weather and lots of family! It's always hard to leave and come back to rain.
