Visit to Arizona November 12-13

I am almost 2 months behind on posting.  With all of the traveling Mom did in October and the first part of November, she missed out on primary sacrament programs, but then found out that Sadie and Madoc were going to be in their primary program the 2^nd Sunday in November.  So after Mom rested up three or four days from her drive back from Indiana, we drove to Arizona for the weekend, leaving Friday after work and arriving early Saturday morning.  After resting up a few hours, we went to the pecan festival In Sahuarita.  Ashley ran in the race that morning (I think it was about 8 miles.  I knew the exact number 7 weeks ago but I cannot find it in my brain’s storage compartment any more.)  We arrived just after the race and then went over to the festivities.

Sadie got a butterfly painted on her face.

 Madoc got a fire breathing dragon painted on his arm.

 While the painting was going on, Neil found remote control cars.

 Next we went to the animal petting area and pet the goats.

 And rabbits

 And helped get the turkey fat for thanksgiving.

 The learned what it means to eat like a pig.

 And eat like a horse (pony)

 Sadie and Madoc spent time on the inflated obstacle course and had a good time.

 Then they rode ponies with very happy faces.

 Once back at the house in the afternoon, Sadie showed Grandma how to use a computer.

 Charlotte tasted the toys.

And was learning how to use a GPS receiver.

 Charlotte is good a playing football.  She was able to keep the ball from Sadie and Grandma.

Charlotte loves her mother.

 She also likes going to church with her dad.

And she really likes her grandpa.
