So she wanted boots.  When I asked why, she said because it's winter.  I pointed out to her that we don't get snow here in Phoenix, but that did not matter.  So I got her a pair of pink boots.  She's been wearing them constantly

And it is winter....why else will anyone be making gingerbread houses.

It was a day off from work for me today and after dropping the kids off at school, David and I went for a bike ride on one of the many bike trails our city has to offer. 

From the trail...

a greenbelt.

,

A solar farm.

A water canal.

We had to cross railroad tracks to continue the trail.

And then we were in downtown Gilbert, the neighboring city.

So we took a break downtown.

And then we headed back.
