RANDOM VIDEOS

While cleaning out the memory of my phone, I found some random videos made over the past year. None of them are that exciting and due to the fact that my phone is a piece of junk, the quality of the videos are poor. However, because I have nothing else to do I posted the videos below.

The kids running through the produce aisle at the grocery store.

This was made sometime last winter. Marley was on her bike and the cameraman was rollerblading.

This was Marley trying a dance-video game at the movie theater. The video ended abruptly because Marley swung around on a pole and knocked her head into another pole. There were no serious injuries.

SUNDAY MORNING IN ARIZONA

Still enjoying the 70+ degree weather this weekend, we got up Sunday morning and went on a hike around South Mountain in Phoenix.

The kids at the "trailhead".

Some scenery.

Marley and Mom head up the trail.



Marley stops to enjoy the view and flex her muscles.



Lots of rocks.

The ladies stop to check on the slowpokes behind them.

Marley and Mom are all smiles at the top of their climb.

The midget in the backpack ignores the camera while checking out the view.

The "East Valley" below.

More rocks.

Somewhere in the middle of this picture Marley and Mom can be spotted on their way back down the trail.

Downtown Phoenix can be seen in the distance.

Marley showing off by jogging the last portion of the trail.

Everyone was quite hungry, so we called it a day and got some lunch.

SATURDAY AFTERNOON IN ARIZONA

It was almost 75 degrees today, so we decided to head outdoors and check out the zoo.

The kids went to the petting zoo and played on some tractors.



Gray took control and jumped behind the wheel.

 


Marley got close to some stinky goats.




Grayson surveyed the scene...




He tried to fit in among the goats.



The goats quickly turned on him and his only chance for survival was to run as fast as he could.



(This is not a real horse.)





Enjoying the slide.

 

Nearby Pappago Park.



Some more of Pappago Park.



Leftovers from Christmas

Here are a few more Christmas pictures. We went to brunch, walked around a bit enjoying the weather and hammed it up for the camera.

The kids with Grandma, Papa, Uncle Dan and Marcela.

Local celebrities.

Marley taking a break.

The siblings stop to pose for a couple of pictures.

If anyone is wondering why Dad had the top of his head cut-off, ask the man behind the camera...Mr. Tim Pollard.

The family - with heads included.

We tried to stay busy. We also stopped by a local museum, the Railroad Park and Zoo Lights.

Bundled up for the cold.

Mom and Grandmom.

Grandmom has her hands full.

HAPPY NEW YEAR

The holiday season has come and gone, and we realized that we were so busy we neglected to update the blog. Marley and Grayson had a great Christmas with lots of toys - highlighted by their new train table and bouncey-house. They had lots of visitors - Uncle Dan and Marcela came in from Boston, and Grandmom and Pop Pop Smith came in from Pennsylvania.

Stay tuned for many more pictures from the holidays.
