As you may have expected, I haven't had much time to blog since we have been in Arizona. It's been non-stop go go go. We haven't stopped eatting since we have got here...We have had 3 meals a day, usually going out to eat!

We got in late Friday night, so we crashed when we got to my Grandma's house. On Saturday we slept in and met J-gray and Katlyn at a mexican resturant. It was nice to see them again! We hadn't seen them since Poland this summer! We hung out with them the whole day. They took us to see their church, Christ's Church of the Valley (CCV). It's a huge facility, but it is beautiful! Alex and I were both amazed at how big it was! We went to one of the two Saturday night services. Then afterwards we ate dinner there at thier cafeteria (yupp, it has a cafeteria with amazing food). Afterwards, we met Gordo and his wife Bethany at a coffee shop where we drank coffee, played a game, and just socialized. My dad had told Gordo to give Alex a hard time about our "relationship", and of course he did.

On Sunday, Katlyn picked us up and we went on an adventure (we didn't go to Church cuz we had gone the night before)! We went out into the middle of no where and hiked around. It was a lot of fun! We ate at a little resturant/bar thing. It was in the middle of no where, but it was really really good!! That's when Alex and I decided that we wanted to go skydiving while we are out here! Afterwards, we went to CCV to meet up with Alex's parents. They are in town at a condo...and no, they are not spying on us!! We went to lunch with them, J-gray and Katlyn then went back to my grandma's house. Then we went to Organ Stop Pizza with my Aunt, Uncle and grandma! We spent a few hours there...the food was great and the entertainment was amazing :) This guy plays an organ and it is amazing how many different things he can play on it!

The next day, Monday, I went to my Grandma's church with her to play Skip Bo with her and some of her friends. Alex stayed behind to work on some of his editing that he needs to get done over Spring Break. After that, we went out to eat at In-N-Out Burger then went to the Rec Center. My grandma has a membership card for there, so we went Putt-Putt Golf and played a few rounds of Bowling, which Alex won every game! Then we walked around the lake, which was absolutly gorgeous! I wish we had something like that in Indiana. For dinner, Alex treated us all to Buca di Beppo!

Today, we met one of my teachers from my school in Kenya for Lunch. It was nice to see her again. I hadn't seen her for over 6 years now! Then we came back here to my Grandma's and watched a movie! Alex and I started to watch "Sydney White", and he sat and watched the whole thing with me. I'm impressed...most guys would roll their eyes at a chick flick and walk away. But, as he stated at the end, "Only good gentlemen would sit and watch a chick flick.." haha

Right now we are waiting for my Aunt and Uncle to call. We are going to Texas Roadhouse for dinner, and they were going to call when they were ready!

Sorry it's a long blog, but I haven't had the chance to blog since we got here!

4 Days!

Since spring break is coming up in 4 days, I decided to do some research about Arizona right now...aka See what the weather is like!

Last week, it got up to the 90's!! YAY for warm weather!! Early next week it will be in the high 80's, then as the week goes on, it will get down to the low 80's, but then go back up to the high 80's, and maybe even into the 90's!!

One thing that I'm super excited about is seeing my grandma, aunt and uncle!! I haven't seen them for almost a year now and it will be nice to see them again!!

Another thing is seeing the sunsets! I remember when we would come back into the USA to visit, I always loved seeing the sunsets in Arizona. There is something about the sunsets that made me feel calm and relaxed! I can't wait!



School today has been extra long! It seems like this week will go by so slowly!!!
