We couldn’t have picked a better weekend to all meet together for my granddaughter’s birthday party. The half-way point for our families is Yuma, Arizona, and we spent the weekend at the Marriott . The weather hit a high of about 80 degrees; the sun felt hot with cool breezes, perfect! Our road trip shouted, “Spring” with the bright yellow desert wild flowers which graced the landscape with a background of Saguaro cactus. Amy turned three. For her birthday theme, she chose “Peppa Pig and Friends.” When we weren’t laughing or hugging, we were swimming, playing balloon games, opening presents, playing on swings and slides at the park and taking pictures of each other wearing her funny glasses. Her menu included pizza, salad, chocolate birthday cake and ice cream. Of course, there’s always one in the crowd that has to work out in the hotel gym the morning after pizza and cake. The rest of us took the birthday girl to the hotel lobby
