Tucson, Tucson, Tucson

How we love you. Every time we come to Tucson, we say, "Dang, when are we going to move here?" We jump off that airplane and suck up that cool desert night air. Even if we don't have plans to move, we love having family to visit. GranJanne lives there and became Eliza's main bottle feeder, snuggler and Addie playmate. Pop Pop and Nana came down for their annual desert sojourn and Uncle Drew and his girl Christina were there as well.

We got sick, we got better. We ate, we drank and shared a night sans kids in the hotel where we got married (THANK YOU GRANJANNE!!!). We went swimming, walked amongst the butterflies and the hummingbirds and watched our girls love their family and be loved. That's Tucson for ya.

Tucson truly is magical, with such a special unique beauty. I am so glad you were all able to be there together, and if one has to be sick, Tucson fresh air will make you better quickly!
