IF ~ Breezy.................

Just a tad bit Breezy..... today......

Phoenix Zoo

On the way we stopped in Cedar City, Utah and rested at the Holiday Inn Express. James was very happy with the breakfast we had the next morning before driving to Phoenix, he was stuffed all the way there.

Stopped for a pic with some arizona desert rocks in the background...

Close up, see the excitement on James' face. He's really excited...

More cool rock pictures...

At the zoo we had a chance to take a picture with James' kid sister Foofie. Waiting for this monkey to sit still drove james to finally collapse and just lay there.

an elephant hammock...

argh A giant clam....or is james really aquaman in disguise and can talk to these sea creatures...

Told him to watch out where he sat at the zoo..... never listens

just my size...

that's all for now, next trip is to San Francisco, maybe james will have a tale or two to tell after that trip...Six Flag's Discovery Kingdom...the pier...who knows...

Whirlwind trip Pt.1

Recently we had a chance to cruise to Mexico with my daughter's dance group. It all started with a competition the weekend before in Logan Utah.

After the long hour and a half drive we stopped at the Crystal Inn in Logan for the night, after that drive James was ready for bed. We had an early start the next day.

It's supposed to be spring outside this time of year but it snowed on and off all weekend. :(

James sat in his seat all day, a lot better than my 3 yr old...

There was some playing on the stairs though...

After a long day James wanted to swim, but he didn't pack any swim trunks...

So we relaxed by the pool instead.

Stairs were a bit much after such an exhausting day, so...

James took the luggage cart....

Why the name James?

I was trying to think of a cool unique name for my recently adopted sock goblin, then my 3 yr old named him "James". That was it, no name changes, believe me we've tried. So the name sticks. I will be posting a few photos from our recent whirlwind, Utah to Mexico and back week soon...

Meet James

James is a family "friend". Traveling with us on trips. This his photo journal of the sights that he encounters along the way. Check back often as we travel a bit and James will be joining us now that he's family.
