Easter, He is Risen!






For Easter our church has a service outside at the lagoon at UCSB. Dan played a song during the service while Sage and I hung out on a blanket. Afterward we went to Ben and Lauretta Patterson's home for great meal with lots of friends.

Arizona!




So I finally have found some time to post pics from our trip to see Dan's mom and grandma out in Green Valley, AZ. We had a blast and are so grateful for our time out there. The week started off with Sage having a bad cold and fever and ended with Great Grandma having a fever as well =( But other than that we had a fantastic time! Thank you Great Grandma, we can't wait to see you again!!!

Random pics from our AZ trip





Hiking at Madera Canyon, Green Valley, AZ






It's definitely not a vacation without a hike up in Madera Canyon. The weather was so beautiful that we ended up going on two hikes. The first one was to an old abandoned mine - too cool, and the second was a more scenic route with a view of snow up on the tops of the mountains!

The Tucson Zoo





What fun we had at the zoo in Arizona, Sage loved watching the animals and listening to the whooping monkeys =) I think his favorite moment though was being able to feed a giraffe just like his mommy and daddy did in Kenya =)

Golfing in Green Valley






While on vacation in Arizona Dan and I were able to sneak away for some golf (Dan plays, I drive the cart, hehe). Thanks Grandma Bos (sorry for the blur!) for hanging out with Sage while we were out playing!
