The Girls Come to Visit!! (& brought the east coast weather with them!)

So my best friends, Allison & Jess, came to visit us (from NJ) - looking for some warmer weather and sunshine and what did they get?! SNOW - yes... they flew in during a snowstorm. A small one of course, but so crazy!! This is Salt River Fields where the Diamondbacks play during Spring Training. They weren't playing baseball on this day! It was FREEZING!

We didn't have snow at our house, but lots of hail. On the way down to the airport, the freeway was covered in snow - it was the strangest thing to see!

After we thawed out... and enjoyed a mexican taco feast on their first night, we headed to McCormick Stillman Railroad Park the next day. Even though it was still chilly, it was lots of fun and the girls had a blast. There is so much to do at this park.


Having fun on the slide

Walking with Auntie Jess...

Brynn spotted the carousel as soon as we got there so of course that was on the list to do. They loved it!

I wasn't sure if Brooklyn would be able to sit still long enough but Auntie Allison kept her under control, she had fun!

A quick picnic snack before riding the train!

Choo choo!!! (and part of a sandwich went along for the ride as well - Brooklyn kept busy feeding most of hers to the birds!)

Back at home after a fun day!!
