Ahhhhh, Flagstaff.

We made it up to the mountains for Geoff's 20th High School Reunion and showed the girls around our old stomping grounds. It smelled like home though we were a bit disoriented by Flagstaff's growth. 

Cooling off at the garden

We inched from "shady" spots to "shady" spots and tried to stay cool until the Flashlight Tour at dusk. Adeline used the bird bath for a quick cooldown!

We saw round squirrels, scorpions, lizards, and lots of cacti!

Desert Botanical Garden

We went to the Desert Botanical Garden and we had the entire garden to ourselves!

One hundred and WHAT?!

Geoff and I had a great idea to see if our amphibious children could get out of the pool long enough to see how beautiful the Sonoran desert is.

Here are some pictures that capture the girls' reactions to the triple digit desert:

We took our pasty selves to the land of sun for our summer vacation. It was a whirlwind tour of Phoenix, Flagstaff, Friends, and Family.

We started our trip off basically soaking in the sun and pool for hours on end and then ate ourselves sick with Mexican food.
