The best part of the vacation, other than wearing flip flops every day, was being able to spend time with my entire family. It had been several years since we had all been together. It was fun to be back in Arizona (Tempe and Mesa) and go to some of our favorite spots. It was also fun for Amelia and Elsa to spend so much time with their cousins and get lots of attention from people other than us. Ben took me out for my birthday one night. After a little shopping spree at one of my old favorite spots (Buffalo Exchange) we enjoyed a delicious dinner at a Greek restaurant on Mill Avenue, which is near ASU. We were able to dine outdoors and watch the crazy weekend crowds that you find there. After dinner we stopped at a frozen yogurt place for a refreshing treat.
Other adventures...

Enjoying some ice cream (thanks again for the hat, Steph)


I enjoyed a relaxing paddle boat ride with Amelia and Grandpa. Amelia was a little upset that she couldn't reach the pedals.

Amelia and Grandma make fresh lemonade.

Another trip to the park and feeding the ducks.
