Arizona Spring Break 2014


There are great bike riding trails that we all enjoy! 


This was an April Fools joke I played on Nate!  I sent the first text to him and then he called me right away and we talked about how he was going to pick my up in the wee early morning hours, take us home, and then still head on into work for that day.  He was so reassurring on the phone and saying he would do what ever was needed to make sure his family got home safe and sound and it will all work out.  I let all that good jokeness simmer awhile on his brain and then sent the second text an hour or so later.  He call right back again and said we got him good and it was a well thought out practical joke,,,,but now I needed to be weary of future April fools pranks to come my way!  LOL

Arizona Spring Break 2014

Arizona Spring Break 2014

 One of the best things about coming to Arizona is being able to go visit with my Gr Delwyn and Gr Barbara (my mom's parents).  
My Grandpa owns some race horses and has a winter home next to Turf paradise race track.  We get to go cheer on Grandpa's horses when they are up for a race there and everyone loves it!  These two are the best!  Grandpa takes his great grandkids for fun rides on his golf cart and lets them take the wheel at times!  Grandma Barbara is always a great host and is easy to talk to and is interested in what's going on in life's daily happenings.
 Grandpa Delwyn is some tough competition when it comes to card games!
 We were able to go visit the Arizona Sonora Desert Zoo with my parents and Grandparents,  There is so much beauty you can find even is the hot deserts!  
 Everyone was treated to ice creams of course by Gr Ron (my dad) and Gr Delwyn (my mom's dad)
 There were a ton of exhibits and learning stations at the zoo.  This one is deep in an underground cave all about rocks and minerals and meteorites.








My Gr Barbara loves humming birds and she always has had a hummingbird feeder at her place in Idaho, their ranch in Soda Springs, and here in Arizona.  This hummingbird exhibit was spectacular!  It was a big enclosed area that was home to a ton of hummingbirds who were flying around, right next to us.  This exhibit also had feeders for the birds and it was so neat to see them up close and admire all their beautiful colors when they came in for a drink.  We even saw cute teeny tiny baby hummingbirds in their super small nests.  My boys had a great time watching these amazing birds.

This bobcat was so funny.  He came right up to the glass where Hayden was sitting at and started mimicking all of Hayden's moves.  Moving their heads back and forth up and down together and the cat even took a perfect selfie with Hayden!!

 We so had a Rootin' Tootin' Good Time at our annual Blue and Gold Banquet for scouts.  In order to prepare for our western themed activity I had my scouts help in making their very own wanted posters.  I had the boy pick their own wanted status.....Stating things like Wanted: Loyal Scout, trustworthy, brave etc..   these are all the attributes that a scouts should strive to have.

Each scout gave me their best wild wild west pose and got to decide what they wanted on their posters.  My bears and wolves also helped make the cowboy boot pinata!  They were so funny doing this.  Some were all about getting in the glue and being nice and sticky...others didn't want to get to gooey!
