Sunday morning

Since we are new to town we decided to visit a few churches. First one on our list... Mission
San Xavier. We got up early to drive down to the Indian reservation where the mission is located. Good thing we went to the first mass of the day... It was so hot with no breeze. Guess that is the desert in the summer! After mass we stopped by the Indian booths set up outside and had some fry bread... John correctly described it as western funnel cake. Yum!

Look at me!

I found my hands, I rolled over from front to back, and I only woke up once last night! I'm growing up too fast!

Arizona at last!

We made it at last to Arizona. We love it here already!! The house is great, the views are incredible, people are really friendly, and the weather is not too bad. So long as we are inside from 12-4 I think we will be ok. We are living in the foothills where it is beautiful and green. Only issue so far is that the animals also like this area. Deadly animal encounter is up to 5! Scorpion, snake, wild boar, bobcat, and a pack of coyotes! Here are a few pics from our first few days.

Visiting with the Klevans!

So excited that our visit home was at the same time as Ro's! Lucky us we also were able to visit with her sweet baby boy Rocket. Here we are... Babies in hand!

John's campfire at the farm last night. Looks like a perfect night to me!


Our view last night wasn't too bad!

Fini-Flight

Thank you to the 162nd for a great 2 yr run! We are going to miss the squadron, our friends and family. Movers arrive in 8 hours to pack up our stuff and head west. Tucson here we come!

Katherine's Baptism

We have had a crazy couple of weeks. Bags are packed, cupboards are clear, and we are ready to head west. But, we have been able to get in a couple of important events before ending our time here in Ohio. Today we had Katherine baptized. The pictures are out of order, but it is the best I can do tonight!!
This first picture really does not have much to do with the baptism does it? Somehow it was in the batch that was uploaded... so enjoy! Maggie & her sillybandz
