Cole and Casey

After 2 1/2 years of Nana and Pop Pop making the drive from Arizona to LA to visit the grand kids we decided that it was time to return the favor. Spring Break for Cole meant it was time to pack up the family and head east. A quick plane ride and drive down from Tucson brought us to Sierra Vista. Cole and the family had not been since September 2009 and Casey had never been.

We were met with a nasty storm that limited our ability to venture out but we were able to experience our second snow fall of the year (first being in Big Bear). With poor weather in play we headed up to Fort Huachuca for some exploring and then spent some time a the wonderful indoor pool.

Once the storm had passed we were able to spend some time outside in the wide open spaces. A hike to an old homestead and a visit to a real ranch where he was able to help feed the horses and cows and collect eggs from the chickens were highlights for Cole while Casey enjoyed playing with toys that were once his dad's and exploring around the house.

Below is a recap of our visit. A bit long but packed with fun.

Each month at Cole's school they award a Peacebuilder award and Student of the Month award to a student in each of the Kindergarten classes. They also award a special award to one student in the entire Kindergarten group (approx 1 in 100). This month the award was for the Playground Good Sport Award and the big winner was Cole!!

We are very proud of him and love that he is a good sport and helps others while out on the playground. Congratulations Cole!!!

A few weeks ago we packed up the family truckster and headed for the snowy mountains. Now while there really wasn't much snow on the ground when we arrived, that quickly changed. Shortly after we made it to Big Bear the big flakes started coming down. This was Casey's first foray into the white stuff and Cole had never seen it as it was coming down so some fun times running around outside while it snowed was a great experience for all.

Trips to explore The Village at Big Bear, the cool rescue zoo and a great tubing trip rounded out a great weekend away. A great time was had by all and we were able to put together a nice recap below.

Please note this is the first video cut with iMovie with our new Mac so it was a bit of a learning experience.
