The Zoo

The Phoenix Zoo

I was asking questions about what the zoos were like in the area at playgroup and I was really excited when my friend Amy invited us to go with her to the Phoenix Zoo! It was extra special because Grandma and Grandpa White were able to meet us there! Amy had tickets to go on the Carousel, Drew loved it! He must have rode on the carousel at least 7 or 8 times with Grandpa. Thanks for being such a good sport Grandpa!! He loved seeing the turtles, the zebras, the lion, and the rhinoceros!

We were able to pet the sting rays! Drew wouldn't touch them but he loved having the opportunity to put his hands in the water!

Goldfield Ghost Town

Goldfield Ghost Town
We had a great time going to Goldfield with Dave's parents, Rich and Sharon! It is a little town on the east side of the valley that was settled multiple times to mine gold, but was flooded out. It was fun to see the old buildings and even to ride on the train!

Drew found this hat in the gift shop and fell in love with it! We thought it was kind of cute so we had to get it for him!

Could it really get any better? We rode a train and found an old tractor! Drew was so excited!

Easter

Easter Morning 2010

Drew has been waiting all week for the Easter Bunny to come! He agreed to let the Easter Bunny take his bottles to a new baby because he didn't need them anymore. He is really growing up! All he really cared about were the jelly beans, it was hard to get him to focus on anything beyond that. We had the awesome opportunity to take one of the missionaries and go to the Easter Pageant over at the Mesa Temple. That really helped us remember what Easter is about. We are very grateful for the gospel in our lives and the knowledge we have of Jesus Christ! We hope you all had a wonderful Easter as well!
