Zoo trip

A day off means a trip to the zoo!!

Time with the little ones

The little girls and I needed to leave for some showings on our house and so we spent a few hours at the mall

 Zhara always helped her teacher with the garden after school and some days the little ones would get to help.

Weekends Together

Some weekend David would come back to Tucson and other weekend we would join him in Phoenix. Hotels become really small when it's your home, office and then you add 5 extra people for the night!

 One of my favorite times was our visit to the temple before we would kiss dad and leave him for another 5 days.

Halloween Festivities

Halloween!! We had a fairy, a rock star and 2 princesses. We had school events and ended up trick or treating on Halloween up in Phoenix with dad.

Life with the ladies

And so life as a single mom of four begins....

These ladies apparently need their beauty sleep

We had a quail lay her eggs in one of our plants. One morning we came out and Cocoa started chasing them. 2 of the 3 eggs had hatched and got away with mom but one remained. She never came back. The egg hatched and sadly did not live...so the girls gave it a proper burial

Beauty in the desert

 Sometimes being a grandpa can be very tiring
