Arizona and Easter

This year we spent Easter in Arizona. About a week before Easter Eleanor, my mom and I drove down to Arizona. We had such a great week! The weather in Arizona is perfect this time of year and it was nice to spend some time outside. I love going down to Arizona and spending time with family. It's so much fun having all the cousins get together. While there we spent a day at the Children Museum in Phoenix. The kids LOVED this place and there was so much fun for them to do. Eleanor of course enjoyed painting and got paint ALL over herself. We had a little scare when Amanda lost her purse, but we luckily it was just sitting on a bench and everything was still in it. We also were able to get together and have all the kids play at the Tumbleweed park and have a few sleepovers. Eleanor and Ty got married a few times and fought some as well!

Another thing we enjoyed while there was the little water splash pad they have in Gilbert. Anytime there is water, Eleanor is beyond thrilled! It was pretty chilly outside, but that did not stop her from getting soaked!

John was able to come down a few days before Easter and we got to do a few fun things. Of course we went to a Diamond Backs game, ate breakfast at the Farm House, visited the water park again, played games, ate good Mexican food and enjoyed visiting with family. It's not that often that John makes it down to Arizona, so I LOVE it when he gets to come!!

This Easter was really fun. Eleanor was so excited about the Easter Bunny and her basket! The Easter Bunny left her lots of treats and really scored with the makeup and squirt guns he left! We let her put on her makeup before church and that was a mistake because not only did she use over half of it, but I was not able to get it all off for church. She looked pretty special with her pink eye shadow!
