Palm Desert Weekend

Two weekends ago, I took Friday off and we headed out to meet Grandma Jeanne and Papa Mick in the desert for the weekend. They had just driven out from Minnesota to spend the next two months in warmer weather. We met up with them at their Marriott timeshare which they booked for the first week. Unfortunately, it was a pretty chilly weekend. We got a TON of rain the previous week and the kids and I actually drove out in pouring down rain on Friday. It was in the 50's and 60's... the coldest I've ever experienced in the desert. That didn't stop us from having a great time. The rain provided for magnificent views of snow capped mountains and the resort had the hot tub fired up! Maddie had fun doing some projects at the kids club Saturday morning while William played the wii. We took a ride on the "bus" over to the Marriott lobby to check out the birds. We ate some yummy dinners out and just had fun hanging out with Grandma and Grandpa.








When Grandma and Grandpa get back from Puerto Vallerta (they are there for 3 weeks), they'll be back out in La Quinta for the month of March. I'm sure it will be warmer than and we'll definitely be headed out for some weekend visits and hopefully more pool time!
