Road Trip...

Up to Prescott we drove to celebrate my Nonie turning 80! We decided to go up early so we could take a little hike. It was such a beautiful and relaxing drive up to Thumb Butte.. We had the windows down... there is absolutely nothing better then the smell of the forest and snow...
We got to the hiking spot with our favorite hiking guide, Uncle Lance..
The scenery was breathtaking...
and the kids had a blast throwing snow balls!
When we were exploring we cam across this HUGE snowman..
Kyle modified him a bit ...
so of course that prompted the kids to make a snowman of their own..
ours not so tall..hehe I think it was barely 6 inches...weak I know...
Then it was time to toast the party girls! Happy 80th Birthday Nonie!! We love you so very much!And Happy 85th Birthday to Aunt Jo! We love you too!

It was so crazy seeing the kids sitting in these chairs.. the same ones my cousins and my sister and I sat in when we were little..truly vintage..
We had a great visit and are planning another trip up where we can take the whole day and hike Thumb Butte. The kids are really getting into this whole hiking thing.. might have to invest in some real hiking shoes for them!
