East Valley Moms - Spring Activities!

"In my humble opinion bucket lists are great way to make the most of a new season. And if you’ve been in the East Valley for any amount of time, you know that spring is our time to shine! Spring training, festivals every weekend and so many unique to Arizona seasonal activities shine this time of year.

So, what could be better than putting all our favorite spring activities onto one big list as a mom hack for everyone else to use!

We’ve rounded this into four sections, two of free activities around town, some spend-worthy options and a just for moms section, because if we don’t plan our own time, it’s not happening.

Our list takes you from February’s best valentines events to our can’t-miss annual Easter egg hunt.

A big thank you to Swimhaus Swim School in Gilbert for sponsoring our seasonal bucket lists this year, just one more way they make things easier on parents and fun for kids."

Dan White Loans

Owning a home is one of the most important things you can do for your family, your finances, and your lifestyle. I grew up in Dayton, OH as the youngest of 7 and raised by two Teachers. We had a family home that my Mom and Dad owned for nearly 50 years. It was a hub for the family and a great source of pride for my parents. I entered the mortgage business in 1995 and moved to Phoenix in 1998. For 25 years I have truly enjoyed helping people with their home purchase or refinance. I have a number of hobbies, including the Arizona Cardinals, Barbecuing, and exercise. 

My biggest joy, however, is having family and friends over to the house for a get-together. Since entering the mortgage business, I have never forgotten how important this process is for our clients because it has proved to be so important in my own life. We always will remember the feeling of getting the keys for the first time to a new home. I am married to my wife Robin, we have children (a new Grandchild), and have helped 3 of them buy their first home. It’s both exciting and can be a little nerve-racking at the same time. But that is why we are here. To take away some of the stress and make the process smoother. We would love to help you or anyone you know to purchase a home or refinance their existing mortgage!
