Way too many pictures

I'm finally getting around to posting the slideshow from all the pictures I took while in Tucson. There are over a hundred photos, so don't say you weren't warned. Most of them are of family. The last time this many people from my mom's family were together was at my grandparent's 50th wedding anniversary in 1991!!!

Nora absolutely loves Midge and Tom's backyard and kept herself occupied for hours moving the little lawn critters about, hiding them in the flowers and trees. Midge's neighbors Leslie and Susan saved a large cardboard crate for the kiddos to have a playhouse in. She and Nano really loved playing in there, and Leslie did such a nice job of making it cozy for them. She and Midge made sure they had a rug, chair and a lamp. Leslie even helped Nora make artwork for the walls! Adorable.

On Mother's day we went to a place called Picture Rocks Retreat (where there are Petroglyphs) to spread my Grandmother's and Grandfather's ashes. It was right at sunset and absolutely beautiful. The pictures of the person on top of the rocks with the petroglyphs are my cousin Dan, he scaled the walls to disperse my Grandparent's ashes.

We had a great time in Tucson, and it was so special to be able to be there to remember my Grandmother (and Grandfather) with the rest of my family.

Here's the link to the slideshow with all the pictures.

These are my favorites

Great pics. Looks like the trip was a success all around. Love the one of Nora in the rubbermaid bin, her eyes are gorgeous.
