Spring Break
I'm not really much of a Spring Breaker, but I sure did enjoy the time off. I did manage to get away for a few days and went down to Arizona to visit Bill and family. We played lots of games and did a little sight seeing. One of the days we went up South Mountain, which has an amazing few of all of Phoenix. 



The kids were cracking me up, because that morning when they were getting dressed, they both decided that they wanted to wear blue, because I was wearing blue. When they came downstairs, dressed and ready to go, they kept saying they were on "Aunt Sharon's team." I'm not sure we ever split into teams, but I at least got a picture of "team blue!" 
My favorite part of the visit was getting to see Bill take off in an F-16. It still amazes me that he can actually fly something like that! It's so cool! 

I also got the chance to make Bill his favorite dessert, strawberry shortcake, but I forgot to take a picture. Anyway, now I'm all ready for school to start back up!

Driving for the Directionally Challenged
Although I can get around most cities just fine, I apperently become directionally challenged when it comes to taking longer trips. I decided to go to Arizona to visit Bill and family for part of my spring break. I've been here once before, and on both trips I've managed to make wrong turns, or miss turns, and add about half an hour to my trip. This last trip I decided to take a different route, so as to avoid all the extra traffic at Hoover Dam. I wound up in California! I had to turn around and backtrack until I found the missed turnoff! I eventually made, so all is good now. Hopefully I will be able to find my home in a few days without too many detours...
