The first 24 hours

Our offseason is officially over. It always feels like those few months go by way too fast. We try to pack in as much as we can including rest and doing nothing since we go go go for 8 months (sometimes 9- fingers crossed!). We miss Texas terribly when we are out here. Our home, bed, shower, humidity, Tex-Mex, Directv, grass....
 
Two big things - they are big in my little world - happened right before we left Texas
 1. We cleaned out one side of the garage so I could finally park inside of it. AMEN! It was a glorious  3 days of parking in the garage...can't wait to get home and do it again. No more scorching hot car in the summer time. Now our goal is to finish the other side before summer!
2. 114 southbound finally connected to 360. The day before we got home! It made us so so happy and we can't wait for the smooth ride to work when we get back. This may seem like a weird thing to be happy about but if you have ever driven in southbound traffic on 114 trying to get to Arlington, you know what pain we have been in. It is enough to make you want to drink before you even get in the car! So this is a big big deal.

So now we are here until the end of March. I have already started the count down until we get to get back on US Air/American and fly on back. Please let it go by fast!
 This is what when on our first 24 hours in Arizona....

We set behind Dave - clubhouse guy - and had fun torturing him the whole way to Arizona.

Our lovely home away from home for the past 3 years. I do have my mountain view again. Ahhhhh love!


The view from my kitchen window. We only use the kitchen to look at the sunset, make coffee and get drinks from the fridge. Not much else happens in there.

This was our first meal here was at Haus Murphy's. The.best.pretzel.ever. We talk about it all year long and can't find another one that even comes close to how great this thing is! Thanks Guy Fieri & Diners, Drive Ins and Dives for the tip!
I took an hour walk. Nice views huh?


I received my shirts from Etsy. I heart Texas!
