On Saturday we saw Toy Story 3.
Also on Saturday, we had a picnic in Thorpe Park and then played. It is always nice when they find nice kids to play with.
On Sunday we went to the neighborhood park. On our way we saw C.J. (our neighbor’s grandson) sitting on the end of their driveway and invited him to the park with us. He was great to have along because he showed Nate some things about basketball, helped Ellie with basketball, and let the kids try his long board. Nate made three baskets. Ellie asked Opa to go down the slide with her so he did (see slide pic).
On Monday we stopped at the West Fork of Oak Creek (one of our favorite places when we lived in Flagstaff). The kids had a great time wading in the water, throwing rocks, and watching sticks and leaves flow downstream.
The not so fun part of our trip was that the air conditioning stopped working just before the Crown King exit. We pulled off and I took a picture of this cactus while Paul looked at the car. I think this cactus might have been some of the only shade around. Luckily we were not far from Anthem and we had water in the car and a spray bottle so we kept as cool as possible. We recharged the A/C at the Wal-Mart and were shortly on our way with cold air once again.
