Group Date Night: Photo Scavenger Hunt

 One of the great things about living here is the large amount of young couples/families in the area to do fun things with. This was one of the most hilarious date nights we've had. There were about 16 couple that night. We split everyone in couples with a list and a digital camera. Then afterwards we met up at the Olive Garden for dinner and a slideshow of the team's photos. So FUN! I'm pretty sure everyone had a good time. We need to do these more often! ;-)

In our group: Xai and Micah, Donna and James, Kirt and Erin

Trip to AZ for Dad's Birthday

 And we off to the desert...

This is Keaton sitting in his 'much-too-small' car seat for traveling purposes. I'm pretty sure he exceeds the weight capacity. HA! Oh well...the things we do!

 These two can't hardly wait to visit with all of their cousins and Nana and Papa. They love to spend time with them.

 We went to IHOP for a surprise breakfast for dad. He had no idea that Mark and Aaron were going to be there. During the breakfast, I gave him his book 'o memories that each one of us wrote a special tribute to him. He read it as tear rolled down his face. One of the only few times we're seen him cry.

Love him!

 Right before everyone headed home, we had lunch together at Brio's. It's so fun being together!
