We are taking full advantage of relaxing this week.  Today we swam, rode our bikes, played a little golf and enjoyed the sunset.  Ah….we might never leave….    Canon ball – cousin Eli would be so proud! Double jumps and landing  The pool which is a great size This is the view from the pool to the par 3 course  This is our view of the par 3 from our porch.  Grandpa and kids are in the background.

We were lucky to find an outdoor ice skating rink in downtown Phoenix.  The ice was a bit rough but we eventually got the hang of it. The kids have really enjoyed  ice skating this season.  Visiting Sweet Julia a show we watch on the Food Channel was a lot of fun.  Unfortunately she wasn’t there today but we did get some treats.  Hanging out in Old Town Scottsdale where we had ice cream at the Sugar Bowl.

We are enjoying a week of relaxation in Phoenix.  The weather is going to be a bit on the chilly side but there is a lot to do and see.  We are staying in an adorable house that has all the amenities two kids could ever want.  There’s bike riding, swimming and golfing.   The par 3 course with our house in the background Riding bikes along the path  Enjoying a gorgeous sunset

 Decorating cookies with Kitty.  Earlier in the week Piper and grandma made the cookie dough and cut the cookies out.  Getting ready for Santa.  Piper left 9 carrots for the reindeer. Presents!
