The kids and I needed some sun so we hopped on a plane and went to visit family in Arizona! It was quite the adventure to say the least. We started off the trip by sitting in first class (thanks Uncle Jon for upgrading us)! The first 2 days were the best weather, and of course Carson and I would both be sick with a stomach bug. Yuck. We still had fun despite feeling rough. We stayed with Grandma Marcia and Papa Mike in their condo and we got to see lots of family that we only see once a year or so. We also got to help Great Grandma Arylss and Papa Willis celebrate their birthdays.
Rylee made Grandma Arlyss a bracelet for her birthday. She was quite proud of it.
We explored the Goldfield Ghost Town. We toured the Ghost Town by horse and carriage. The kids were in heaven.
A view of the Superstition mountains. The kids also learned about cactus's. Rylee was obsessed with the type of cactus that can "jump out and get you." I never knew there was such a thing. Crazy! We took a train ride around the town, ate ice cream and enjoyed the scenery. It really is a cool little town!
This was the condo pool. The kids spent a lot of time here!
We visited Riverview park one cloudy day. Such a cool park. Tons of things to play and climb on. There was even a zip line!
Another day we went to the "Lost Dutchman Days" rodeo and carnival. The kids tried cotton candy for the first time... thanks Papa! Of course they loved it.
We even got to go to one of Grandma Arylss' band concerts. Rylee especially enjoyed it and even made Grandma play her clarinet for her when we got back home. The kids danced to the music and put on quite a show for the crowd.
We spent lots of time just hanging out and playing cards. Another fun trip in the books! Where should we go next??
This is a video of the kids dancing to Grandma Arylss' band.
