we made it

after the LONG DRIVE we finnaly made it.
the boys arent to sure ARIZONA is all i told them it would be.
both have burned there feet trying to go
outside with no shoes, on our morning walks
they both make it about a block before there "too tiered'
both their checks are bright red at all times
and jaces skin is definitely part lizard in this dry hot air
the house matt found for us to rent is perfect,
i went to the store and got buckets, spoons and a little pool
to set up in the backyard (which is all rocks) and they
have been cooking up a storm.
there favorite part so far
the splash park, they run from fountain to fountain
getting soaked.
I CAN TELL WERE GOING TO LOVE THIS PLACE

Yay, yay, yay!!!! That picture of the boys sleeping is one of my favorite pictures ever! I want to come visit that splash park. The boys feet will get used to the hot ground in no time, I remember they used to run around barefoot all the time when you lived here. We are so glad you are back in the AZ again, YAY!!!!

THE HEAPS ARE BACK! We are so excited. Im thinking we might need to come and play at that splash park soon. Seriously, why is there nothing fun like that in Tucson. AHHH! I wish we could move on up to phx. So when do we get to play?? Also, Im with Mary your boys will be running around barefoot in NO TIME...I remember when you lived here and they never wore shoes even in the blistering heat.

Jamie where in Arizona did you move too? We are moving to Gilbert in 3 weeks. There is a group a ladies that get together three days a week and play basketball. I played with them two years ago when we lived in Arizona. It's a blast. Maybe if your close enough you would want to play? Let me know.

oh I am so glad that you are here safe and sound. I can't wait to see you! Are you all moved in??
Where do you guys live? There are so many high schools with fun swimming pools that I am sure your boys would love! The bonus is that it is super cheap too!

I've had a sick stomach all week just knowing that you aren't just down the street. I'm glad that you made it alright. That is a real feat driving 10 hours with those three little monkeys. Glad that they were good for you. Hope you are feeling settled and are happy. It won't be the same here! Soak up the sun!

Hip Hip Hooray.. You made the long trek out. It looks like the ride wasn't all that bad if they all slept at the same time. The park looks just like a perfect fit for those cute lil' monkeys. I can't wait to see some photos of the new Heaps Home! Good Luck... Sending you Love and Happiness!

Moving! Yikes. I'm going to be doing that in a couple of weeks. I'm glad you love it there! I bet the "winter" is amazing in AZ.

I am so glad you haven't waited any time on having fun. The pictures are great of the boys. I especially love the one of them asleep in the car. What a drive. I am trying my hardest not to be sad, but there is a big gray cloud over my head that I can't get to move. ohooooo!
