G'ma and G'pa Sand Visit!

Grandma and Grandpa Sand were our first visitors to sunny AZ!  Turned out to be a wonderful week too!  The weekend they arrived and we met them in Phoenix, it snowed here at home.  But by the time they got down to Sierra Vista after visiting Sedona first, it was in the 70s and sunny!  Of course you see we went to the rodeo while they were here, but here are some pictures of what we did the rest of the time!  Of course we ended up going to the park by our house.  Grayson had to show Grandma how he can go down the slide by himself on his belly.  He went down the rolly slide for the first time by himself and would giggle because of the bumpy feeling on his tummy.  He ended up doing that over and over again until Mommy got tired of picking him up and putting him back on the play structure.  

Grandma did a great job keeping him entertained in the backseat!

We showed Grandpa and Grandma what a Hibachi grille was like.  It was Graysons first time too!  He thought it was pretty fun to use chopsticks and eat his avocado from Daddy's chopsticks.  Grandpa Sand was daring enough to try Saki, while the rest of us declined!  

Of course Grayson's favorite part of the day is reading books before bed.  Usually Mommy reads to him, but he got a special treat and got to read with Grandma too!

On their last day here, Grayson and I took them to Tucson to catch the shuttle to Phoenix.  We were supposed to go to the zoo but it was so windy that dust kept kicking up.  After a failed attempt at going to the Children's Museum we saw an old cathedral by the museum and stopped there to look inside.  Outside the church there was this arch with metal flowers all over it.  Grayson of course needed time out of the car to move so he enjoyed climbing up the stairs and playing on the "stage". 



After many attempts to get a picture of Grayson with Grandma and Grandpa we finally got a good one!  Thanks for come to visit!!  We miss you already!
