Arizona winter

It is hard to believe that we have been in the Phoenix valley for 4+ months already. We have seen and done a lot this winter as well as enjoyed a semi-normal daily routine. We've attended several Arizona Coyotes hockey games, spring training baseball, multiple concerts, hiking with Charlie and continuing to explore the sights in and around Phoenix. We have also had a few friends from Boise visit this winter to escape their cold weather. One of the recent highlights for me was a day of skiing at Flagstaff. It had been over 3 years since we last hit the slopes, but we still managed to get down the hill without doing too much damage. Concerts include Ugly Sweater festival, KONGOS, Big Data and Andrew McMahon. Other fun activities include the Phoenix Wildlife Zoo and Taliesen West Frank Lloyd Wright with our good friends from Boise, the Pima air museum and boneyard tours in Tucson, the Waste Management PGA tournament and Barrett Jacksons with more friends from Boise, the Fiesta Bowl between LSU and UCF, weekly rock climbing with Taylor, a December trip to Disneyworld and dinner with a good friend and his family from Singapore. Lots of pictures included in this update.
