wild wild west

we took a trip back to az to visit kevin's family and see elder dave off for his 2-year church mission. grandma and grandpa ballard couldn't get enough of little miss and the uncles adjusted quite well to my strictly enforced "quiet zones" and my incessant commands of "shhs" and "use your inside voice". the boys quickly jumped on board and could be heard saying "shh, annie is sleeping" or they could be seen going upstairs on their own initiative to check on her or do binky monitoring. she loved it all.

bright-eyed and bushy tailed at 11:00 at night in the airport

we'll miss you elder dave!
happy 4 month b-day! i put on a "oh-this-is-so-cute-that-we're-pumping-you-full-of-sugar" face. inwardly i was cringing.

trip to the phoenix zoo
thoroughly enjoying the zoo
we took a day-trip up to sedona to get our zen on and to do a little shopping. tragically our zen was nowhere to be found...we searched for the vortex spots where supposedly the circular flow of air coming up from mother earth will heighten your spiritual and metaphysical energy, but unfortunately we walked away un-heightened. either the hikers in front of us took it all or we should have paid the 10.99 for a "vortex-enhancing crystal". it did, however, manage to bring out super-cheesy smiles.
ahhh, the lap of luxury.
