Sunset & Melting Pot

For our 8th anniversary, we got a babysitter (for once) and went up into the foothills and watched the sun set:



And then went to the Melting Pot, where we cooked our own meal in a boiling cauldron full of spices:



We finished the night with a little pot of melted chocolate and fruit and treats:



It was great way to wrap up another great year of marriage.

Number One

This week, Big Z celebrated his first year in style. Rather than a going for the typical birthday cake, he had ice cream cone cupcakes and popcycles! We had a little family party in the backyard and Aria "assisted" with unwrapping Z's presents. And for dinner, we had his favorite: blue berries. He had a great time.





Aria however didn't have as good of a week. She came down with a bug that left her with a high fever and chills. She's doing better, but she's not out of the woods yet.

Tucson Book Fair

For our family activity this week, we went to the Tucson Book fair at the UofA campus. The temperature was perfect, although it was pretty bright outside (as you can tell in the pics). Zade enjoyed ripping my hat off my head and Aria had fun making little crafts at different booths.
