We took a fun little trip over to Arizona to visit my grandparents for Spring Break. They live in the middle- of- nowhere, Arizona close to Prescott, AZ. We love to go there and get away from the crowded- iness of Southern California and enjoy the country life. And we love to visit G&G! Dave is in the middle of tax session so it was just the kids and me. We got to drive over in our brand new van so it made the ride much nicer! Elsie was okay on the drive over but coming home I decided to drive in the evening so she would sleep. It worked out much better as she did sleep most of the time on the way home and everyone else fell asleep too! Except me of course.
Highlights for the kids - packs of gum from grandpa, searching for Arrowheads with Uncle Duane, fishing at the lake (although I think more rock throwing in the water was done than fishing), and going to the zoo and museum. And the #1 fun activity for the kids - driving grandpa's tractor. He drove them around for awhile and then they pestered him so much he let them drive. It was the first thing Emma wanted to do the minute she woke up every morning. I think we used up all of his gas and drained the battery.
Searching for arrowheads and Indian Pottery with Uncle Duane. He has an awesome piece of land that has a train bridge and river bed on it. He went there ahead of time and planted the arrowheads and pottery. The kids didn't know of course and thought it was awesome. Jacob slept with his bag of arrowheads and pottery each night. Thank you G&G. We love you!
