Family Fun Times!

Hey everyone!  In the midst of sharing my Christmas home and all kinds of craft projects, I also wanted to share some family time we had last weekend.  It was a busy day for The Man and I, and we were dragging by the time we got home.  But it was all so very worth it!

Our day started with a Dance Recital for our ten-year old granddaughter, Phoebe.  We were kind of bummed that photography was not allowed during the performance (strictly forbidden), but we got pics afterward.

Phoebe performed a Hip-Hop dance, beautifully I might add, and looked so cute in her 
pretty red costume.  Littliest Miss was so excited to see her!

Little Miss and Littliest Miss were so anxious to give Phoebe her flowers!

And, no, she is not wearing bronzer.  She just has beautiful olive skin (like her Dad).

Proud Daddy, but "fear" lurks behind that smile -- three little beauties to watch over!

Next, we hot-footed it down the freeway to the Phoenix Zoo to meet up with......
Two more beauties -- our 14 year old twins, Taylor & Riley.

Zoo Lights is an annual event, but we've never been before, so this was special fun!

Nana really likes to take photos!

We could not believe the work that went into this event.  So many trees were completely covered in little lights.  

Seeing the lights across the water was stunning!

LOTS of people!

Music was playing throughout and periodically was synced to the lights -- so pretty!

Can you tell this is our gymnast?  This move is called "The Scorpion."  I just
say "amazing & OUCH!"

Hmmm..... the "oldsters" (the short ones in the middle....lol) are looking tired!

Proud parents -- Dad is barely hanging on to his height lead, but Mom has long-since been passed!

This was a super-fun day, but we certainly slept good this night!

Thanks for stopping by and taking a break from the normal Christmas hullabaloo to share in our
  family time!
