thanksgiving in arizona

thank goodness to a DVD player, lots of fruit snacks, lolly pops and juice....we made it to Arizona. it's funny that when you go on a flight with a toddler, you end up giving them things filled with sugar in hopes they will sleep. luckily, she did for a good portion. she was never super fussy but more antsy to move around and be free. we didn't get her a seat so we had an almost 30 lb 22 month old climbing all over us when she wasn't sleeping. it's a long day/trip, but it was worth it and she had a lot of fun with her other grandparents who she doesn't get to see nearly enough.

i looked up things to do there so we could enjoy the weather and Ryan's mom lives just a few minutes away from the Tucson zoo! Brielle had a blast running around looking at all the animals.

Our last full day there Rob's kids & their family came over and we snapped a quick family photo
