Finally a pic of Aunt Darlene. Taylor is going in her frilly dress, she proved just because you wear a dress doesn't mean you can't play with the boys. Daddy gets her all geared up. Ready to race Maddy and Mommy The gang watching the races. What a way to end your birthday, with a capri sun???
Daddy went with the girls and survived the adventure...not sure what he got, blueberry with Oreo topping? Weird? Opa enjoys his! The girls enjoying their golden spoon frozen yogurt. Nani and Opa enjoying some, while Mico tries to get some himself. Mommy and her girls, enjoying a frozen yogurt.
Maddy gives daddy some pointers. Getting all garbed up! Speeding around the track. BTW: Jeff would have loved to live here, gone every day, it was awesome he said.
Maddy and I enjoying a bowl of cereal, before it got too hot, and before we head to Oak Creek Canyon.
Mr. Fisherman, too cute! Sunny and Madders, enjoy a snuggle. Lydia and Maddy along the Oak Creek Canyon, a favorite spot of mine when I was at NAU, Grasshopper Point. Lydia loved it too! A momma duck and her babies scurried up stream, it was sooo cute! Daddy jumps off the cliff....and does a jackknife? Taylor is thinking about jumping herself, but not until she is cooled off by the creek. Maddy enjoying the cool water and warm sun. Taylor jumps! So proud! Our "babes. " Taylor is doing her version of the peace sign, took me a while to figure out her intentions and then I helped her figure out the accurate version if she wanted to use it next time. Lydia was NOT tired, and assumed this position as we toured the Canyon. When she woke up at the Ice Cream shop she swore she didn't take a nap.....to be a child! Taylor in the perfect jeep. Maddy and Lydia enjoy the views from the back seat.
Our first stop was Sedona Arizona. We camped here for several nights. It was HOT, HOT.. so we were in the water as much as possible. This was our swimming hole, along the Verde River.
