We went to Mesa for a few days during spring break and visited Barrett's grandparents. This is in their little park model trailer. (We stayed in a motel because there was no room for us!)
Barrett's grandparents took us for a drive in the hills above Mesa. It was so beautiful and green after all the rain they got this winter.
Riding on the golf cart that Grandma and Grandpa Gibson use to get around in their 55+ community. Lets just say Anna got a lot of attention!
It is so crazy to me that they just grow oranges and grapefruit in their yard! Talk about a different world from my native Idaho! Anna had fun trying to pick them.
We went to the Phoenix zoo and loved it! It helped that it was 82 degrees. So nice! Anna of course had a blast looking at all the animals and still likes to tell us about all the animals she saw.
One of my best friends from high school, Amber Blaylock, has been in Mesa doing student teaching so she met us at the zoo and we were able to catch up on our lives since she went on a mission to West Virginia. It was fun to spend time with her.
We house sat for the lady I visit during spring break. They have 3 dogs and a cat that we took care of. They may look cute in the pictures, but I am not a fan of shih tzus or any little yapping dog for that matter. Nor was I a fan of having 4 dogs (including Cooper) in the house. We were so covered in hair!
This is an 80lb Rottweiler on my lap! She is a really sweet natured dog but I would never have a dog this big in my house, especially with black hair! We don't let Cooper on the furniture (except to take this picture) so it was crazy having these dogs all over us all the time. I was definitely ready to go home by the end of the week! On the up side Barrett really enjoyed being able to watch the NCAA basketball games on their satellite all week!

Anna with Barrett's parents at Bethany's reception. It was in the Legacy Flight museum in Rexburg. It was different, but turned out really cool. We drove all night Thursday the 25th to get to Rexburg for the wedding on Saturday and then drove home all day Sunday. It was a fast trip, but went pretty well. Thank goodness Anna is a good little traveler. Can you tell she loves her grandparents?
My family was awesome and took care of Anna most of the time we were there. Barrett and his brother Jason and I did the music for the reception, so we had to spend time rehearsing and setting up and stuff so we didn't have time to take care of Anna. She loves her extended family!
