Arizona Tournament

                The girls did amazing!  They won every game, then we were down a bunch of players on Sunday and lost 1-0.  They will not be going to Hawaii now.  So sad.  We still had fun traveling with her team and watching them play.  These days are going by way too fast!  Jessa scored 2 goals.

                                         

                                         

                                 

                                        

The weather was warm, but the water was not.  This didn't stop the kids from swimming.  I was good just sitting in the sun for a bit.  The best part of these trips is watching all my kids play together.









On the way back home we decided to take a detour to se the grand canyon.  It was cold and the kids lasted literally 10 minutes.  We got them to stretch it out a little longer.  They were so excited to go see cousins.














Before we got to the grand canyon we stopped by a bunch of ruins.  The kids just humored me, but I thought it was pretty cool.  These structures are hundreds of years old.





















Next, I made the kids go hiking with me.  We hiked one of the most famous hikes in Sedona, Devil's Bridge.  I had to keep Quinton within arms length.  The kid isn't scared of anything and kept getting super close to the edge.




Behind us is a bridge that you can walk out on and take your picture.  There was a big long line, so I couldn't convince any of them to go out on it with me.  Pretty sure Michael wouldn't go out there even if I carried him.


The kids were most excited to go to Dane and Miriam's house for Thanksgiving.  We were going to head off to Vegas after this for Kellan's tournament, but we were able to get out of it last minute, thankgoodness.


Lucas was obsessed with dressing up and pretending.  He was always wearing one of these two outfits!  I love that he still loves to pretend!  What a freaking cute boy!  Sad that he's growing up.



Braiding bread with Aunt Miriam.  What a good Aunt.

This is probably the best picture of the whole trip.  I'm not sure what they were all watching, but this is the best!
