Arches

On our way from Preston, ID to Safford, AZ we got a little tired and decided to stay the night in Arches National Park, Utah. We snuck in some fabulous hikes, grabbed a pancake dinner and chocolate milk and stayed the night at Arches Inn. Best decision ever!

Preston


Next Stop: Preston, Idaho

After our stay in Seattle we drove 14 ish hours to Pocatello to drop off my nephew and then a couple more hours to Preston to visit the Grolls.

We took a ride in "Clifford", ran, swam, played pickleball and wallyball, ate a hot wing sandwich, and hung out with my sweet nieces and nephew.

Do You Kiss Your Mamma with That Mouth?

Nope.
Just Llamas.

I swear there's nothin' better than seen' your mama kiss a llama.

You should try it some time.
no really.


Whilst on our trip we managed to squeeze in a slight detour to the Outback...
Who knew a little piece of Australia was just around the corner from Seattle?

Just imagine a cool muddy meadow, peacocks screaming and diving off roofs unexpectedly, twiterpatted roosters and chickens, lemurs dancing to "I like to move it move it", kangaroos and their joeys frolicking in the fields for you to pet, a donkey named Jack, 1 grumpy pony, and llamas that love to make out, and that's the Outback!






Favorite comment of the day-
Olivia: "Look mom, some chickens like to ride on other chickens' backs!"
Me: "Yes honey, they're called Roosters"


















Does anyone else feel that closing your eyes to kiss a llama is pretty romantic? :)

After all that kissing we got to end the tour by holding our own little bundle of joy...






G'day Mate

Daddy-O


Happy Father's Day to the best daddies I know:)

Seattle's Best


Nope not coffee folks we're talkin' the best friend a girl could ask for...
Lindsey-Chip-Nicole-Davis-Walker-the 3rd.....teeheehee.

Oh man I love this girl!!!

As an extra treat Lyns got to meet up with us while we were in Seattle.

Seriously 2 and 1/2 years is way tooooooo long to go without seeing your Bestie but if you're gonna do it right you should probs meet at Pike Place, eat some divine cheesecake, breathe in centuries of decaying animals and mummies, feed the birds at Ivars, ride the carousel, then betroth your daughter to the cutest little man you ever did see!!!!

Missn' you and Dyl and that cheese cake like crazy!!!!:)
