The Aunties Come to Tucson


Our first visitors came this weekend! Aunt Mat Mat and Auntie Lil from Florida! We loved having them even though it was such a short visit :(

They got in Friday afternoon and we took them on base to Family pot luck night at the squadron. Of course the single guys loved having my pretty sisters there. On Saturday we went to Sabino Canyon and took a tram ride up the mountain. We then had lunch and headed to Mt. Lemmon which is the highest mountain in our local area (9,100ft). What is interesting is that at 7,000ft the terrain completely changes it's suddenly green and it looks like you are in the mountains of N.C. not the desert! Also, it was 101 degrees at the bottom and 72 at the top! I hope more of you come visit soon we would LOVE to have you :)

When I finished scrolling down the pictures, I was just sitting here smiling! How adorable! Precious family! Beautiful girls! I happen to know Adalie will be getting her own sunglasses in your dad's birthday gift bag. Wish I could have been with you on that excursion. We're coming, just don't know when. Love to all.
