Day One

Today we attended Erik’s football game.  Thank you to Krissy & her family for coming out to help me with Saige & Alex.  This was definitely an interesting game with the snack bar attempting to charge Jackie $7 for Nachos.  Unfortunately, Erik’s team did not win, but having fun is the most important part.  Saige entertained herself by running up & down the handicap ramp for the entire time that we were there.  Luckily she only tried to run out onto the field once.  Both Saige & Alex fell asleep on the way home from the game, and slept for about 2 hours after we put them in bed.

Both Saige & Alex are now awake as we attempt to pack up the van so that we can all drive to Prescott to visit Tom.  Saige being the Daddy’s girl that she is, will be very excited once we get there.  My phrase of the day is “if you can catch a baby, change it”. 

We have all arrived in Prescott!!  I discovered that 75 is far too fast for a speed limit especially when to the left it appears I’m going to fall off the side of the earth.  As always when going anywhere with the kids it was an eventful drive.  First, we had to pull off so Erik could use the bathroom.  This must be a boy thing of seeing how far into the empty desert he could pee.  I do have to admit I laughed about it for like 5 minutes.  Our timing was perfect, we arrived at my mom’s condo about 2 minutes ahead of Tom getting here from work.  The weather here is perfect and what I have been waiting for a month to have in Phoenix. 

On our drive into town I discovered that there really isn’t anything up here.  It will be an interesting transition from Phoenix.  Though, I am looking forward to a slower more relaxed way of life.  Maybe it will force us all to slow down a bit.

We are all here now and happy to have the whole family together.
