Winter Wonderland

On Saturday we drove up to Payson to enjoy the freezing weather and scary, iced roads. My idea of a well-spent weekend. Luckily, it was a ton of fun. We went up with some of our friends and went tubing and sledding. Jacob fell asleep as soon as we got to the hill and stayed that way until we returned to the cars. He had no idea that a snow storm had started up and was swirling all around him.
We found some snow caves. The kids loved them. Seriously, I think they could have played in them all day.
These two love to sled and tube. They had so much fun together. I love that they are becoming friends. It is so fun to watch.
I couldn't decide which picture to post. This one or the one below it. They're both so cute. So I decided to go with them both.
James had a blast rolling down the hill. He did this a few times.
When we got back to the cars, we were soaked. It was such a good time!
Sometimes living in Phoenix you can forget that there are seasons other than Spring and Summer. So it's nice to get outside of the city limits and experience what most of the country is experiencing, especially for our Arizona boys. They never knew it could get below 60 in AZ.
Thanks Jones fam for inviting us on a winter wonderland escape!

Three-Ring Circus

We took the kids to the circus last weekend with our friends the Jones fam.  The kids loved it.  Overpriced food and sketchy people, what's not to love?  
This is how the kids looked through most of the show.

Then things got a little crazy.  I think Matthew and Cooper are actually dancing.  I know, who woulda guessed.
Matthew got to go for an elephant ride.  That was one of his favorite parts.
This was as close to the elephants as James got.  Poor things, don't you just want to set them free in Africa?
