Spring Training in Arizona





































We had a wonderful vacation in Phoenix with grandma Mary and the Mariners this spring. We spent a week at grandma's house and went to several games. Mom & Cora both got heat rash, so we spent a lot of time hiding from the heat of the day in air conditioning. Cole & mom went "gleaning" with grandma's church group (picking fruit trees for the food bank) and Cole fell in a cactus while posing for a picture - ouch! He was a brave boy and once we got some Icthammol ointment he was 100% better.
Grandma also had a great set up for us on the backyard patio - a borrowed large umbrella for shade, a small plastic pool, a big wheel toy for Cole to drive around and many toys to keep the kiddos occupied. We took nightly baths to everyone's delight - gotta remove all that sunscreen. Karen Schoeben drove up to visit us and we met the Trowbridge family at a ballgame. We bbq'd every meal and soaked up much needed sunshine.
