The Burnett's and the Moore's came to Arizona during our spring break to enjoy the sunshine, family time, and some Mariner's spring training games! We descended on the Embassy Suites in Phoenix and had a great long weekend.
The first day, the girls enjoyed a day at the Arizona Biltmore Spa. It was absolutely heavenly! We had lunch out on the patio at Frank & Albert's.
The boys went to In & Out, went golfing and then back to the hotel for swimming. I think we got the better end of the deal but they might not agree.
Then it was on to 2 spring training games, lots of yummy food and tons of swimming in the pool.

Watching the cousins play catch while waiting for the game to start
Kettle corn and nachos
Carter always asking where is "friend" Austin was
Jake and D.J. getting foul balls from the Reds - and then D.J. giving his to Andrew
Trying to drag the kids out of the pool when it was time to go on to our next fun thing
Andrew's dance moves
Who thinks this kids might turn into a little slugger?
Autographed hats
Dave embarrassing us by yelling weird things in the middle of the game ("Go Huskies!")
Scoping out which players were wearing Cutters
Being grateful for shady seats but then taking breaks to go stand in the back and soak up the sun
Crazy Uncle Patrick terrorizing kids in the pool
"Well, it's in the genes!"
Letting the kids swim until 10:30 p.m.
Birthday cupcakes and fabulous gifts for the March birthday boys
Dave falling asleep at the table
Sara having the "in" with the Happy Hour lady so we could get 6 Shirley Temples
It's always over way too soon when we have our family into town.
Thanks for everything! We had a wonderful time being together. How we wish we lived closer!!
Thanks for coming to our neck of the woods! Not much better than springtime in Arizona.

You guys know how to show your company a good time! All that talk of swimming and dragging the kids out of the pool is sure making me pumped for summer!!!! And I think we need to take our kids to Spring Training game and do all the fun stuff your kids did. Ohh and Nachos too yum!
I don't think it gets much better than that! What fun family memories - so glad you had a great spring break!
Yay!! She does love her blog again!! What a fun little getaway! Those cousins must have so much fun together and play so well to let them stay up til 10:30! You all did so much in such a short time. A little jealous of your spa time :)
