Valentine's Weekend

This Valentine's weekend we all (us, and Grammy and Pappy too) went to Nana and Papa's house in Lake Havasu for an awesome weekend of fireworks (all the big pyrotechnics come here each year to shoot off test fireworks and prepare for July....it's 5 nights of 4-6 hours of fireworks...totally amazing! We made a gingerbread house, yes you read that correct. Grammy got one to do with Cody during Christmas, but we didn't get to make it....she brought it with her and yes we did it this weekend...I spared you the pictures of me pouring frosting in my mouth from the frosting bag (thanks for catching those moments dad). We also visited a cool swapmeet and played in the desert...we had a blast! I can't believe I forgot my camera this weekend!!!! So the few pictures I have to share I got off my dad's camera.

A little walk in the desert:)

Here are some picts. of Cody and Peyton at the Phx Zoo:)

Natural History Museum

So Cody is completely into dinosaurs right now, and basically anything with teeth:) We went to the Mesa Museum today and had a blast touching buttons, panning for gold and checking out those dinosaurs!

Wilcox Christmas in Cali

CA Adventure....

We had an absolute blast at CA Adventure! Thank you O'Connells and Grammy and Pappy for the most amazing day! Just a small recap:
We saw A Bug's Life 3-D show and scared the pants off of Cody; Went on the carousal too many times to count; Doug and Wendy rode the Screamin' CA roller coaster...I about wet my pants screaming so hard and Doug almost threw up...loved it; Toy Story mania and the lazer blasters were Cody's favorite (rode it twice); Soaring CA was everyone's favorite (except Cody, who although was tall enough to ride any of the rides...even the roller coaster...not quite ready at 2 years to do so); Then saw the most amazing Disney parade to end the perfect day!
