The boys have had a great time watching the Giants (not to mention the Cardinals and the Jets this football) season :) Here's the icing on the cake!!!

Well, the Cardinal's football season may be over, but at least we still have the Giants ... they are in it to win it, as they say. The boys really enjoyed hanging out with their dad this year and catching a few Cardinals games out in Glendale, AZ. The games were packed full of fun with food and treats, and plenty of games to play and footballs to toss around at tail-gating time. The boys are excited to be getting ready to start their own football adventure this winter/spring too, as they get ready to start up their first season of tackle football... wowza, mommy is going to have a heart attack. Where did those little babies go from the posts back in 2005???

One of our favorite things to do is travel... and of course visit family. We are lucky to have family members who live in different places, all over the country, and the world for that matter! This is a picture of Luis & Christian when we took a recent trip to visit family in New Jersey. This particular trip was full of adventures, and several trips to New York City - both for sight seeing (on a bus/walking tour), as well as on food runs -- Christian, mommy and daddy all got really into a particular ceviche (with octopus nonetheless!) The boys are great little travelers, they pack up their goodies and away we go, no complaints, just good little men, and always ready for an adventure!

Sometimes we complain about how much work it is having pets... they are messy, don't have great manners and everytime someone new come to the house (or we just try to go outside for that matter) they are a pain in the behind. But, sometimes, we are blessed enough to catch them at a moment where they are sweet and calm... sleeping in our patio chair?! Is this some kind of cartoon??? Diesel... oh, Diesel.

The boys finished their first week at their new school (just about anyway) and have already been reporting that it has been a positive transition ~ although they miss their old friends, they are enjoying meeting new friends and getting to be a part of their new school community! We are so proud of our boys, they are such good little men! This week they have school pictures, a Dominoes' Pizza night, and Science night... always something fun around each corner.

The boys got new DS3's for Christmas from Grandma and Grandpa and are having fun playing with those, it seems like every minute that they are not doing homework or jumping on the trampoline. Sophie has been very into coloring and drawing and is doing an excellent job working on her "people" as well as trying her hand at writing a few letters!

We had a fun time when Abuela was here, visiting over the Christmas break... and even took a trip out to Rawhide for a day - fun in the sun, Arizona style! We'll post some pics from that fun day :)

We are really enjoying the new house, and the fact that the weather is excellent doesn't hurt when you look at the acre that it is set on... with a horse arena, the in-the-ground trampoline, the playset area, and a nice covered patio to boot... we are feeling very blessed.

We are trying to plan our annual family winter-trip-to-the-snow to sled up in the area around Flagstaff... really hope the snow holds and it works out. We had so much fun last year, we'd really like to do it again. ... also in the works, we're planning a summer trip to the Dominican Republic. Tio is graduating from high school at the end of May and we're hoping to plan a trip for a week or so to go hang on the beach and visit some of Luis's family over there - can't wait to get the tickets and make it official.

Happy 2012!!

Well, it has been years probably since we posted on here, but I figured that today would be the perfect day to begin a new journal, as the boys are starting out at a new school, and thus a new journey for my Airzona Babies :) Both their daddy and I are very excited for them, and just know that they'll love it once they get to know their new teachers and friends!! I know that they are lucky to have each other at school; as it is always nice to know that your brother is just around the corner.

We have been traveling local and around the US, have been to Mexico, New York City, New Jersey, Minnesota and all around Arizona in the last years... Camping in the desert and playing with snow in the mountains around Flagstaff... the boys are growing fast and strong. They are both excellent athletes with the brains of an honors student :)

The kids (all three of them) enjoy jumping on our new in-the-ground trampoline, riding the horses who now live in our new yard (just moved to a new house in October 2011), playing with their dogs, their DS3's, Leapsters, watching SpongeBob, Clifford, and every kid movie to come around.
