I had a great vacation in Arizona a few weeks ago. My Dad spends half of the year there, and my sister and I usually go out to visit a few times. In March, we plan our visit around our brother's Spring Break. We always have a good time with him!
We don't do much when we are out there. We like to relax, enjoy the sun, and swim. We spend most days looking at this:
My Dad's grapefruit trees were blooming like crazy and the smell perfumed the whole area by the pool. What a beutiful scent.
Dad & I played a round of golf. I didn't beat Dad, but did beat his two friends who we played with. Not bad for my first round of 2012!
A few photos before heading out to dinner at Flemings.
Me with Baby Sister. We were in a great mood because our Spartans had just beat OSU in the Big 10 Championship game. We gave up pool time to watch the game. Nothing usually trumps pool time!
Me with Dad:
My sister with our Grandpa. He's 91!
So many interesting plants to photograph:
Heading out to watch MSU play in their first game of the NCAA tournament.
It was another great trip to the desert!
