The 'Train' Park






Rumor had it there was a train park in Scottsdale. So the kid's wanted to go. Of course I had no Idea where it was and so after jumping on the internet I Realized it was only a few miles from the hotel. How lucky for me. So we wnet. The kid's had a really good time as they were able to ride a scale model of a REAL WORKING STEAMER!!! Colby of course rode in the box car and Lily and I had a great conversation about the view from the train. And we got to see the entire park.

Martin kid's and the Zoo






There are not too many pictures like this in my collection. Just me and Colby. I have looked and looked and find lot's of me and Lily. But only a couple of the Boys.


This is one of my favorite pictures. Colby and I. Of course he will never look at the camera and barely smiles at the same, but still on of my fav's.







LilyAnn Loved the wolves and the Monkey's. I think she is a monkey actually. We got to see Porcupines, Big horn Sheep, Sharks, Rays, turtles, and juts about everything else. The largest tortoise on the Earth lives at the Phoenix Zoo and she is Huge. I don't have any pictures because they are on the video camera.













Colby, of course, was mesmerized by the Manta Ray Bay. The kids were able to reach in the tank and touch the rays as they swam by. There were also Nerf Sharks int he tank and some very large pilot fish. He also kept trying to use his shark buddy as a ninja sword. Hmmm Wierd.
















Now in this one, Colby is riding the camel. Of course he thinks he should be able to take it home. I told him he would have to ask his mother. Chances are they just do not have the room for such a beast! But the ride was fun. Just missing the turbin.











So I figure we would end with another of my favorites. We do lot's of these and she likes to take them. I can't wait ti go see them again and the next visit they will get to meet Justin. Colby is very excited. I know Lily will love him the first time she sees him. So, I can't wait.

Justin's first walk!!

So, we decided it was time to get off our duffs and go for a walk. So we packed up the kid and his brand spankin new stroller and took off. The ironic thing is the weather turned out to be a little cooler than we liked so we made it around the first circle and then headed home. It was fun though.
Justin is 6 weeks today. I did not make it to church because I was sick. Went camping on Friday with the elders quorum (another post) and came home sick. Just worn out and it has started to catch up with me.
Anyway, we are glad to finally be getting into gear to get Baby J up and out. He loves looking around at everything and actually seemed to like the first walk. So enjoy.
