Familia in Town

Brando and I have been very lucky to have family staying with us for a few days this week. It was perfect to have them here, it seemed super quiet around here after being with family over Christmas. Brando's aunt and uncle and their kids stayed with us after they had been in Nogales visiting an auntie who lives in the hills there.

We have had a fabulush time, they kept commenting on the lovely weather and we were able to get some quality time in the hot tub. Well, we were in the hot tub, the kids were going between the pool and the hot tub. I realize that I am far more acclimated to the Arizona heat, but there's no way you would get going back and forth between that frigid water and the heat of the hot tub.

They also came bearing tamales from Nogales. I have a weak spot for tamales, there's something about them that makes my heart happy. Now, Brando has brought up a few times that we should go visit his aunt in Nogales and each time I have informed him that I enjoy my head connected to my body, thank you very much. But our aunt and uncle assured us that they felt safe and comfortable there and so did their kiddies. After partaking of the divine tamales, I think that I might be persuaded to head down there. Sorry PHX, but you just don't have very good tamales!!!

BTW, Brando and I divorced ourselves from TMobile. Yep, we were willing to be seduced over to Verizon with my mom and little bro....Iphones were calling my name as well as a cellular service that actually works. I think Brandon is in shock, he can't look at an android without lamenting his skype and large screen. For the record, he could have gotten a droid...but homeboy was worried that I would just rave over the iphone and he would be left with his bulky, oversized droid.....the best part of the iphone you ask?? Could it be Siri? Nope. Could it be the sleep design? Nope. It would be Instagram. Holla!!! Come find me on there, my user name is Cancocom. I would love to see what pics you're taking!
