Havasu


So we had another great weekend in Havasu.... we packed up the whole fam this time (we took the dogs with us...) on Friday and left after bubby had dinner and a bath. He slept pretty much the whole way. Duncan started having his "I've been in the car too long" heart attack in palm desert... we thought we were in for a long ride but since we have a real baby and don't worry about him as much we knew he would calm down eventually and stop trying to dig out of his crate and he did. We woke up to a beautiful day on Saturday and loaded up all the kids to take out the boat... unfortunately I forgot the camera so you will just have to imagine our lily white bodies laying in the sun (it really wasn't a pretty picture but seeing Thomas laying on the beach with one puppy on each side was pretty priceless.) Jonathan bean taking his morning nap all snuggled up in the cabin of the boat was pretty adorable too but oh well. We ate lunch and cruised around the lake... we even drove through the channel to experience spring break in there... let me just say I am glad we go out there to play and relax and not try to party and be cool.... no feeding the ducks this time! The dogs loved being out in the boat and I was very proud of myself for backing the boat and the trailer in when it was more crowded. Saturday night we took Jonathan out in the stroller and went looking for the memorial wall... didn't find it until later but oh well...

Feeties in the sun... no shoes!!!

look at those top two teeth


my fav boys!
Sunday we took the boat out again but it was overcast and cooler. Jonathan slept in my lap and we drove a little faster up to three dunes and back... we are scoping out beaches for when we want to stay longer and set up a canopy and such. Then we went back to the house so Thomas could work on the weed situation. On the way home we stopped at KFC in Parker (cuz the other choices are Mc donalds and taco bell... double EWWW) and I found something JT won't eat... KFC mashed potatoes! Oh well I guess they are pretty gross. He enjoyed string cheese and applesauce and a few crackers instead. I should have paid attention and not eaten a chicken sandwich because it made my tummy hurt.... fast food really is gross! He was awake for most of the trip and blew raspberries at us and played peek a boo in the back seat. We didn't hear a peep from the dogs and he finally crashed just before the windmills. What a fun trip... can't wait to go back!

glad you had a good time. Aubree and Jonathan now have a similar smile she just got the same two teeth in looks like at the same time! You are lucky your dogs will do the ride Holly won't! Oh well we will all have to go sometime with all the kids now that would be an adventure two toddlers and a 4 year old!
