Phoenix Family Trip

We took the kids to Phoenix for a weekend and rented a house with our good friends that now live in Houston.   With 37 degree weather, a backyard pool, aisles of (cheap) wine in any grocery store and great shopping, I ask myself why we don't visit more often.. or live there.

Besides spending time with the Rincon family, highlights included pool time, yummy supper at the house, visiting the Botanical Gardens, a quick hike in the heat, a Coyotes vs. Avs hockey game and shopping.

Next trip for the eight of us will be New Orleans in 2017.
