The Huntington Family: Arizona in May

So this year we finally got smart and vacationed in Arizona at the end of May. It was a great time with family and we had so much fun in the nice weather. We went swimming a ton, played on the slip-n-slide, and picked peaches. Ellie had so much fun with her cousins, it was so fun to see her interact more with them now that they are all older and talking. So cute. She also got to spend some good time with Grandma and Grandpa Hurst every evening. Spending time in the sun was also great, as Laramie had a pretty dreary spring and much cooler weather when we left. Going to Arizona during the holidays is fun, but we've decided that we like going when everyone, including ourselves :), is less stressed, roads are great, and illnesses are few. Thanks to all my family for hosting us and just letting us hang and socialize. And thanks Samantha for letting us come and visit you and your family at the cabin! It was so good to see you again!

Lots of pictures! Enjoy :)

I love Ellie's facial expression as Grant slid towards her. He broke her in well to what slip-n-slide was all about :)

This was by far the best slip-n-slide I have ever been on. Super fun to have races. And the cushiony water sleds were amazing! Suddenly an adult can slip-n-slide again!

My parents, siblings and spouses. We were just missing Annie and Keefe and we would have been complete. We ate at LGO in Phoenix. Super good food. I love places that have unique flavor combinations that taste good. Yum yum.

Pickin Peaches with Dad!

"This is a peach", "A What?", "A peach", "A What?", "A peach","Oh, a peach!" SQUISH!

In search of big peaches with my Mom. Found a couple.

Here's our family "Peach Pose". Ellie never managed a light touch in this whole process. Poor peaches, but they were yummy!
