Arizona

Last weekend we went to Arizona for the weekend to celebrate Thomas graduating from NAU. For a fairly non kid friendly weekend, both boys did great. James and Mac continue to be great little travelers and we are lucky they are both so flexible with things like where and when they sleep, or in Mac's case, don't sleep. A look into the future of what James and Mac's college houses are sure to look like:
How to entertain a 3 year old at a college kid's house? Knocking over empty beer cans with a nerf ball of course. Thanks Auntie Amberly :-)
Friday night we went out to dinner and Mac did great staying up well past his typical bedtime. He even gnawed on a carrot and some pizza crust at dinner.
Surprisingly, the graduation ceremony did not hold the interest of either of the boys. They got some rest in so they were ready for the party after the ceremony.
James made himself right at home at Tom's house during his graduation party and loved every second of the beer cap table and Kock 'Em Sock 'Em Robots.
One our way back to Phoenix from Flagstaff on Sunday, we drove through Sedona which is beautiful. James was very excited to check out some cactus up close and personal.
We had a great weekend spending time with family and exploring a new state. Arizona is the 4th state Mac has been to and the 10th state James has been to! (5th and 11th if we count the night spent in Georgia)

The picture of Mac and Tim is so cute - you can really see his blond hair and blue eyes (Mac's, I mean). Flagstaff is a weird place to travel to, not exactly close to Pheonix. Glad the boys were great travelers. See you soon!

I love the concentration on James' face while knocking over the beer cans -- classy! Your boys are adorable, and you and Tim are no slouches either.

Congratulations Thomas
Welcome to adulthood (greatly over rated if you ask me).
