Spring Break and More

With spring in the air and a week off of school, the girls continue to enjoy their outdoor time. We seem to be at a park at least once per day…

Ali and Ava are good at sharing the “bike” at the park closest to our house.

And Ali loves playing in the sand…she’s becoming a good digger.

Spring in Arizona is when our farmer’s markets are best. While the moms shopped, Ali and her friend Grayson helped out pulling the produce.

For the week that Ava was off, NeeNee came to visit. A haircut for Ava was the first order of business….she seems to have aged a few years just with the shorter haircut.

We took the girls to the train park, starting with the carousel.

Ali was being photogenic….

After riding on the train, we went to the frontier town to play. Both girls like to be up high - Ali on top of the town…..

And Ava on top of the stage coach.

 

Another day the girls took turns showing off books. Ava loves her Disney book.

And Ali (aka the Pirate) is busy trying to color her book.

We did a family bike ride on the greenbelt…

And played with Pepper in the pool…amazingly the girls went in as well (unheated pool in March is too cold for the parents).

Sometimes there’s nothing more fun than just running up the street…

One day we had some amazing wind…perfect for flying the kites. Ali tried her little one.

While Ava got pretty good at the butterfly kite.

Click on the image above for a video of Ava flying the kite.

 

The girls had lots of fun with NeeNee!

 

Another day we took the girls over to Sarah’s house. Ava (aka Anna) and Sofie (aka Ariel) had fun playing dressup.

Ali got in on the act as well.

Now Ali is a dress up girl…and Ava is asking for Frozen dresses!
