Long Live (in) Arizona!

We have now officially lived in Arizona for longer than we have lived any where in our married lives. We really like where we live and have been very happy here. Here's a list of some of the reasons we like it here:

  • Weather! (We don't like cold)
  • Wide freeways
  • Pool in the backyard
  • Great area
  • Great friends
  • Great ward
  • Palm trees
  • Synchro
  • Desert in bloom is beautiful
  • Brandon's job
  • All day kindergarten
  • Flancer's (my favorite lunch place--Prickly Pear Chicken-yum!)
  • No shoveling snow
  • Playing outside on Christmas Day
  • Not having to bundle up to Trick or Treat (Julia was a hula dancer one year-swimsuit and grass skirt only)
  • My beautiful new kitchen
  • Excellent schools with great teachers

There are probably a ton more reasons that we are glad we live here. Here's to a long and happy life in beautiful Arizona!

P.S. You all are welcome to come and visit!!!

I'm so glad you have found a place your happy with. It sounds like you are just thriving. Which is amazing. When I lived in AZ I was shriveling up and dying from Heat exhaustion. Then again, we didn't have a pool in our backyard. Oh, yeah, and we lived in the armpit of AZ...Yuma! Bluck!

I have to agree with you about Yuma! And the pool makes all the difference.

Ok, just had to get that off my mind! I'm glad your happy in the hotness, but I have to say, it sure was fun to have you in Lehi. I really liked that move!
