Welcome home

Paxton spent a week with my Dad and Vicki. She has been waiting for her turn for a while and it finally came. Caden had his turn in the late summer if I remember right. She was supposed to follow, but then I started vball, school started, Dad/Vic remodeled the kitchen and time kept slipping by. So on the 13th, we dropped her off for a week. She said she had a great time, got homesick a few times, but otherwise had full days. Walking the dogs, driving the tractor w/g-pa, exploring at the creek, dancing in hula skirts just to name a few things. A big thanks goes to G-pa Steve and G-ma Vicki for making it happen. We were glad to get her back home!

We picked her up on the 20th and headed to Flagstaff on the 21st w/G-ma Hansen. Spencer went down to Tucson with his brothers Taylor & Kimball and Dad were they rode in the Tour de Tucson again Saturday.


After their morning of riding, they joined us in Flag. Spencers parents have a timeshare there and we just went up for fun and relaxation. We enjoyed the cool weather, time at the park, played pool, used the hot tub, shopped and random games. Thanks for the invite G-pa and G-ma Hansen, it was fun.

Of coarse I had my camera there and only remembered to pull it out the last night there, which tends to happen on most of our trips. So I only got a few shots of the kids throwing food from the loft, while Spencer and Kimball tried to catch it in their mouths. They enjoyed that little game.


From there we got home Tuesday evening, unpacked and called it a day. We had one day to get ready for Thanksgiving and spent that day in Globe with Spencer's Mom and Dad. This year it was a bit of a smaller gathering, but it was fun times and good food!

Here was some of the feast.


Here are some of the feasters.




Another thanks to Mom and Dad Hansen for hosting us.
