Swimsuits in Winter?!? Only in Mesa, AZ!!! Macee was back getting into her swimsuit and I asked her why and she told me, "I will show you!" She then takes me out back and shows me a puddle on the table we use to get on the trampoline! She wanted to jump in the puddle! Thank goodness we have been having beautiful mid-70 temps!

January's Hike...

Billy and Karen invited us to go hike the Hieroglyphics Trail out in the Superstition Mountains. It was B&K's family, my parents (G-ma & pa Rowley) and us. It is about a 1 1/2 mile hike (round-trip). On the hike in I piggybacked Macee when she was getting tired. We made it to the springs and let the kids play around for a little bit and then we turned around to hike back out. I let Chuck take Macee on the hike out. Maddy, Tyler, Karynn and Dallin took off in front of us and made it back to this sign and waited for us! We had a great time! Thanks for inviting us B&K!!!

We went to an "Astronomy Night" out at Lost Dutchmen State Park with the Mortensens. We piled into the "bus" and headed out. The instructor showed and told us about different stars and constellations. Chuck's favorite was his laser light pen he used to point out the stars. After the presentation you could go up and look through a telescope (Tyler is pictured here). The kids sure enjoyed this activity!
