Visit to Brandon and Melody and girls in Arizona, 2017


Grandpa and Grandma Rogers visited Brandon, Melody, Charlotte (3), Kate (3) and Victoria (1) in Arizona from March 22 to March 30, 2017.



Victoria's one year pictures.

 Victoria and Kate's eyes are bright blue.  Charlotte's eyes are hazel like Brandon's.



During our visit Victoria would walk sometimes and crawl at others.


I loved how she would walk to me with open arms so that I would pick her up.


Kate with her namesake Grandma.  Notice their new living room set.


Family scripture study followed by family prayer and stories before going to bed.


Kate and Charlotte love to ride their balance (strider) bikes.

 The weather was perfect so we visited parks almost every day -- sometimes twice.


Kate and Charlotte helping Melody make cupcakes for my birthday.


We visited the Mesa Temple Visitors' Center.


The flowers and trees were beautiful!


Kate and Charlotte were mesmerized by the statue of Christ.


In the Visitors' Center Kate and Charlotte were fascinated as they were able to color the temple on the computer.  Little Victoria thinks she is as big as the rest.


Kate uses the fun tutus as a lion costume.  Her favorite dancing music is "It's Gonna Be All Right" which she calls "Turn It Down."


We explored Tumbleweed Park in Chandler which had lots of fun things to do.  If a park has swings, it is a real hit with the little ones!

The workman have started landscaping their backyard.  It will have artificial grass, two orange trees, two shade trees, a paving stone patio, and various plants around the edges.
