We spent 4th of July at the cabin in Snowflake, AZ. It was warm there, but at least a good 10 degrees cooler than the Phoenix area. Evenings were soooo nice because it actually cools off there once the sun goes down!
We didn't get to do the usual campfire and roasting marshmallows because of the restrictions out here, so that was a bummer. But everyone seemed to have a good time regardless.
Between the boys taking turns throwing up, and Jake's bad diarrhea, Curt and I were wondering if we should just load up the kids and head home early. We decided to stick it out and we're glad we did. I LOVE being so secluded, with no distractions...no deadlines...no appointments...no job where Curt is gone all day...
We have what we need right there...the most important thing. Our family.
Curt and I took lots of walks with the boys, making new trails, and discovering new things on the property. There were a lot of rabbits around and Jake and Ty had fun chasing them!
We had fun playing games with Grandpa and Grandma, and the boys also loved painting rocks with Grandma's help. Jake just couldn't keep his paintbrush (with paint on it!) out of his mouth! Rides on the 4wheeler are always a hit with the kids. Luke was sooo excited because Daddy let him steer and push the gas!
We didn't end up seeing any fireworks, but no one was too torn up about it. Maybe next year we will do some little ones of our own. On the drive home, Curt wanted to go through Showlow, which added an extra 45 minutes or so, but it was a nice drive. We love the scenery outside of Showlow. It's beautiful!
