Long Weekend in Arizona

Ellie had her first plane ride (that's her and Daddy in the Burbank airport)! Over President's Day Weekend, we all headed to Arizona to watch Shawna's little sister, Michelle, play in a soccer tournament out in Phoenix. So, courtesy of Grandma Lynette, we all boarded Southwest Airlines and flew out to the Valley of the Sun on that Friday night. A good time was had by all, and here are the pics to chronicle our trip.

Courtesy of the Nava family, we had a place to stay in Mesa, and she was gracious enough to drive us ALL over the valley, since Michelle's games were played in various locations, from North Phoenix to Scottsdale

This is a place in Mesa called Organ Stop Pizza. Inside the two-story building, there was a HUGE organ that was played non-stop and had an accompanying light show. The pizza was okay, but the show, which ranged from showtunes to Disney songs, was awesome.
