Just Because We Are Not In School...

... didn't mean that we couldn't have a fun Spring Break!! Ours was full of random FUN this year! I think everyday had something exciting in it! Here are some highlights of our week:



Tuesday we went out to the desert with my fam for some quad riding.

to IHOP we go for some din din afterwards!

On Wednesday, Marcie, Lane and I worked on getting our skin to looking off white instead of pale white.

well, I should speak for myself. Marcie and Lane are little brown bears now... I am still on the polar bear side.



Picnic at the park with cousins was our Thursday outing!

Friday evening we headed out to the River View shopping area. It kind of turned into an "animal" adventure, or our stuffed animal adventure:)

Casey needed new work boots, so we went to Shepplers where Lane and Minda got an 8 second ride on the bull!

Dinner at Famous Dave's were there was a celebrity siting!

After dinner we visited the Bass Pro Shop for our very first time.

I had heard that this place was amazing, the comments were right! I felt like I was in a million dollar lodge in Aspen Colorado. Definitely a campers, hunters, fishers paradise in there! Lane was eating up all the fish in the tanks and the wild animals that were mounted on the walls. That was not so much my favorite, I get creeped out by stuff like that.

Saturday Casey went to the dunes. Since Lane and I didn't have anything better to do, we enjoyed the nice breezy day shopping at the San Tan mall. That is our deal, when he goes to the dunes...we get to SHOP! We were good though and only had one purchase that was $8.50!

Spring Break treated us well... even if it was 90 degrees the whole week. I am a summer girl so it only made me more excited for June to come!!

What a HOOT (er)!

No need for an explanation except...

... that besides Jay Leno's "Dealing With The Public "
(click HERE , go to full episodes, click on Thurs, Mar 12 and scroll through his comic bit at the beginning)
on his show last Thursday, this
was the funniest thing I have seen in a while!

27 and looking GOOD!

This handsome devil had his 27'th birthday on Tuesday! Lane and I couldn't be more grateful to have this cute birthday boy as our husband and father !!!



On Sunday night he got a yummy birthday bowl of ice cream at my parents.

Monday night we celebrated all the March birthdays at the Goodman's.

Then on Tuesday came all the real birthday FUN! Sunni and I decided to throw a little surprise party for our twiner husbands. It was hard trying to keep it a secret but in the end, they really were SURPRISED! To start off, since they are twins, we thought it would be hilarious to make them match for their party. We bought them matching shirts and just made sure that they both wore their white hats, light jeans and black shoes. The party plan was to have friends and family over for ping pong, rock band and games and have an ice cream sundae bar in my parents garage. So before the party, we took our husbands to Mango's for dinner. They didn't know that part either, I just told Casey to get in the car for dinner. It was a classic when they both showed up with matching clothes on! We are just mean wives:) After dinner we had to find a way to get them to the party so we ended up saying that we were going hot tubing at my parents house. By then I am sure they knew something was going on but they were nice and went along with it. So we get to the house and I told Casey to go in the garage and turn on the outside lights to the porch. Of course he asks why and "I don't know how to do it" and I just barked back "JUST GO DO IT!" So they both go in the garage and low and behold...SURPRISE!!! Well, nobody was there yet (we are not that coordinated to get everybody there first) but they knew there was going to be a party for them soon! Once everybody showed up, we had a BLAST!

Casey and Travis in front of their cute sign Sunni made. She blew up pictures of them making some pretty fugly faces! Casey's picture is the first one on this post.

Of course... a Sand Dunes birthday cake. It looked way better in person

Rockin out

The Newly Wed game where we all peed our pants at least once laughing so hard! We also played another fun game that I don't have pictures of. Let's just say that there are some talented people in this group!


The happy boys making their birthday wishes...

...I think Casey's came true:)


Casey and Travis both deserved an awesome birthday celebration this year.Thanks to all that came! Happy Birthday Casey, we love you more than anything!!!

Choo Choo!

Today we went to the McCormick Stillman train park in Scottsdale. I remember going there as a kid and thought that Lane would enjoy all the fun trains and toys. Plus the weather is too good to be true right now!

waiting for the big train ride

thought I was going to tip the whole train over with one single move

just precious!
