Flagstaff!!

Flagstaff part two- Up to Snowbowl to take pictures! We drove to the top of the mountain and took some pics!! It was beautiful! Mark planned it out to come up here and take pictures, the original plan was to take the skii lift to the top but it closed 2 weeks ago to prepare for winter!!(which he called and found out) What a great planner he is!!!

Flagstaff prt 1

Mark planned a whole day trip to flagstaff as my birthday present!! He did way to much but it had the most amazing day!!! At the end of the day he goes: " I think what we learned today is that we need to get married and move to flagstaff." We were picking out homes we would want to live in ( probably out of our price range..) but still fun!! I love bubba so much and I think when boys plan something it means so much since girls are  usually the planners!! Flagstaff is so different from Phx and so great to go there and adventure.. and live someday SOON.

So we went to Flagstaff X-TREME adventure course.. its INTENSE I couldnt do the last two courses I was too scared and tired form doing the first two!! We are 50 ft off the ground.. the last two you get 65 ft off the ground!! My arms are so sore today! Its crazy.. Bubba was even scared on a few of them!! hehe and enjoy the video at the end!

THis one took awhile.. AHH!!!!!

Went up to NAU to eat in their DELICIOUS all you can eat dining hall. Its so good so much food!!

Schnepf Farm

Friday I went to Scnepf Farm! It was so fun! The best thing we did was jump on these giant "pillows" it was a big bounce thing and it was just so fun! I hadnt had a fun night out like this in awhile! 

Me and Mary jumping!! Check out that AIR!

Chicago part2

The second half of the amazing vacation was spent with my family! It wassooooooo nice to spend time with my Grandma! She is turning 90 this year! I have always been her closest grandchild, she use to spend 4 months of the year in arizona with us!She is the women who taught me how to pray- talk about a big influence! She unfortunately has dementia now, but she still has her same personality and we can still talk, she is the sweetest grandma I know Im so lucky to have had her influence in my life! I wish we lived closer to her!
