Welcome to 2026:

February was my birthday month, and I celebrated a milestone year and I'M STILL HERE! Maybe, because the month was full of LOVE and I LOVE, LOVE.

How do you show your appreciation for others in your life?

As March blooms across the Valley of the Sun, there’s no better time to enjoy all that the Phoenix metro area has to offer. With warm, sunny days and mild evenings, March is perfect for outdoor adventures, cultural experiences, and preparing your home and vehicles for the season ahead.

Spring Insurance To-Do’s:

Spring is a great time to review your insurance coverage to ensure you’re protected for the months ahead:

  • Homeowners Insurance: Check for any updates needed after winter rains or storms. Wildfires or hail damage, have been concerns in Arizona.

  • Auto Insurance: With spring events and more time on the road, verify your policy limits and discounts, and schedule a vehicle maintenance check to avoid costly repairs.

  • Flood Insurance: While Phoenix is desert, sudden monsoon rains can cause flash flooding—make sure your coverage reflects your risk level.

  • Health Insurance: Review your health plan and update any dependents or coverage changes before the spring enrollment deadlines. We offer great supplemental coverage, which could also take care of deductibles.

We can't just think about the things we HAVE to do. Let's talk about the things we LOVE to do.

Things to Do in the Valley This March:

  • Explore the Desert Botanical Garden: Witness the stunning spring wildflower bloom and learn about desert plants in full bloom.

  • Hike Camelback Mountain or Piestewa Peak: Take advantage of cooler temperatures for scenic hikes with panoramic views of the city.

  • Attend Spring Training Baseball: Catch the excitement as Major League Baseball’s Cactus League games bring top teams to stadiums across the valley.

  • Visit the Scottsdale Arts Festival: Enjoy local artists, live music, and delicious food in Old Town Scottsdale.

  • Stroll Through Downtown Phoenix: Check out the Roosevelt Row Arts District for galleries, murals, and trendy eateries.

  • Go Ballooning Over the Sonoran Desert: Experience breathtaking sunrise views with a hot air balloon ride. (this is thumbs up for sure, my entire family enjoyed this experience)

Living in the Phoenix metro area means embracing a vibrant lifestyle filled with sunshine, outdoor fun, and a strong community spirit. This March, take advantage of the season to explore, connect, and protect what matters most.

As you plan for all of lives adventures, don't forget to give us a call.
