Arizona--Here we come!!!!

So by now everyone knows that we're moving to the hot state of Arizona and we're soooo very excited. Well, some of us are excited and others of us are really nervous about moving so far away from lots of family and close friends that we have here. In the end it will be the best thing for us to move and get a closer relationship with our little family, plus we both love the sun so much more than the different weather changing every day!!! We'll have to grow up and be on our own; start becoming a closer knit family and maybe make some new friends that we can be close to. This last week we were able to go to AZ to check out the site and nieghborhood that we might be living in and get some ideas of what places would be the best for us. Ethan loved being with his cousins in AZ. While there we were able to spend some time with Steve's brother, his sister-in-law, and their children. Thank you guys for letting us stay at your place and making life kinda crazy for you!!!! Once we move to AZ Ethan will be able to play with his cousins a lot more and we think that he'll enjoy spending time with them, he really had a ball just being around kids closer to his ages than spending his time with boring ' OLD PEOPLE '. Here are some pictures of our fun time.

Here is Ethan with his cousins playing ring-around-the rosies.
