Happy Californ-iversary

Oh my goodness, we have now officially lived in California for ONE year-- can you believe it?!  And what better way to celebrate a year of California than to take a road trip to Arizona :)

Ok, to be fair to California, we really have liked living here for the past year!  Nick loves his grad school program, the weather is great, we're meeting lots of new people, and there's plenty to do to keep us entertained.  But we decided it would be fun to go on one last trip before Nick needs to start getting ready for this next semester.  So to Arizona we went to visit Becky's parents!

Olivia loved playing with her Grandma and Grandpa.  We managed to stay pretty cool in the 100 degree weather by swimming at the pools lots.

We were also fortunate to see lots of family and friends while we were there, which was so wonderful!  But it seemed like one of Olivia's favorite things about the Arizona trip getting to play on the rocking horse (note: Becky got that horse when she was a little girl!).

Travelling is always so fun, but it sure does feel nice to be home...in California!
