How HOT Is It?


Just a note of interest to you all who are still in the throws of winter / spring. It has been triple digits for the last 4 days. I mean like it was 105 in Yuma on Thursday. I had to laugh at mother today, she was getting into my truck and grabbed the handle and was presented with a good old Arizona callous on her hand from it being so hot. Ah, this is what we live for. Wicked HOT!

BECCA'S EXCELLENT ADVENTURE

Becca wanted to celebrate her birthday by going to the Zoo. We met Saturday morning and enjoyed a fun adventure seeing all the sights at the Wildlife World Zoo in Phoenix. Here are a few of the pictures we thought all would enjoy.

Is this Fezzik's BIG brother?


Maybe it's this one!


Geoffrey, the Giraffe was caught in the act of wishing Becca a very Happy Birthday




One question is, are Zebras white with black stripes or black with white stripes?



I particularly enjoyed the Rhino.


What would a trip to the Zoo be without Flamingos?



Alas, after all the walking around and sights to see, we went back to Jr. and Bec's and enjoyed a nice outdoor grillin' barby. Notice the guest if honor!




Smiles for the "My Pretty Pony" Rainbow Dash



A very nice MP Player.



Lots of nice cards and presents.



A Strawberry Shortcake "berry delicious" ice cream cake

And finally, a huff and a puff to blow out the candles. One note, there was a wind that aided in the traditional blowing out of candles. We all had a great day. Happy Birthday and great memories Becca. We all love you lots!!!!
