Fun in the Arizona sun!

On October 9-12, Mom, Dad, and Britt were taking a trip to Arizona, so Parker and I decided to tag along. I was a little nervous because it was his first long ride in the car. We've done Wyoming and that is the longest up until now. It was a good thing for bathroom breaks, and food breaks. We were able to break up the trip over a few days of splitting the drive and staying over night half way through. Needless to say Parker was great! We did have some help with a borrowed DVD player from our awesome friends, the Leroys, books, toys, games, and occasional napping.

It was so fun to see Aunt Becky, Uncle Tom, Leigh, Dean, and Mick. We had some yummy food and good times being able to hang out and catch up. It is always fun to do that. Parker had some good and bad times with the bird and dogs. He couldn't decided if he loved them or wanted to run away. Usually it was the latter, run away.

I did want to stay and enjoy the beautiful weather a little longer, but we did have to come back to the reality of Utah and the cold.

Finally getting some courage to pet one of the dogs. As you can see he's got the tail!
