Jonathan starts residency orientation on Wednesday. I've been completely spoiled having him around these past two months. Completely, utterly, totally spoiled. And I am dreading residency, just because Jonathan will work long, hard hours. And we'll miss him. But the sooner he starts, the sooner we'll be done. And since we know his free time is ending, we've tried to do some really fun things these past couple of weeks. One of our favorites was the Arizona Desert Botanical Gardens. We got a culture pass from the library, so we got in free, and we loved it especially since it was free ☺. It really was so neat to see all the plants that can grow in a desert. Jonathan took some really great nature pictures.
It was really hot the day we went. It got up to 110 degrees that day. So we didn't stay at the Gardens for too long. And I'm so glad that Jonathan pushed the stroller the whole time. The girls are getting so big that it is getting harder and harder for me to take them in a stroller.
Here's me being silly outside a thatched hut. Looking at this now, I am totally grateful that I don't have to live in one. I like my air conditioning way too much. Not to mention my kitchen, computer, TV, etc.
It's so amazing to me that even in a desert, life thrives. Our lives have thrived here. I will always love Arizona.

McKenna went there on a field trip and loved it! I am glad that you have been able to do some fun things while Jonathan was home! It's always nice when you can spend time with your eternal companion, and the kiddos too!!
So fun! I have never been, but I would like to go.
It makes me so happy to read that you love Arizona - this is where we have budded, blossomed, and bloomed too. I'm so glad you live close by - life is so much better with you near by!
