We took Grandma to the amazing Scottsdale Mall. It is like shopping heaven. Although I cannot afford half the stores there:-)
Here the kids are posing by the horse statue inside of Barney's. They really liked the art/decorations around that store.
Here we are at the outlet mall. We tried to sell Jace, Kylee and Nathan! No takers, we still have them all. I thought the 75% was a great deal...lol.
We had quite the experience at Chick-Fil-A. As we were eating our great chicken strips, the best ever, some kid came walking by and threw up all over the booth right behind us and the floor, I think it even hit the man sitting in the booth. So I went and told the guy at the counter. It took forever for them to clean it up! I will say we were all troupers and hung in there. We were rewarded by getting to meet the "Eat More Chicken" cow. Here are the kiddos with him right before he started break dancing!
The aquatic center is one of our favorite places to go to handle the 112 degree temps. We took Grandma and Jace there a few times while they were here. We would pack lunch and then hang at the pool for a few hours. Our favorite part is the lazy river. One day mom and I even swam laps...yes I think the life guards were laughing since we weren't so graceful!
Here you can see the water slides. To the left is a big water spray structure and to the right of Kylee's head is the "toilet bowl" or a pool that spins you in a circle.
The kids really enjoy the water park. And it is only $0.75/kid and $2/adult!
We spent 4th of July on our driveway since we can see the entire city fireworks display from there. We were concerned that Kona would be scared to death, she wasn't. She was more concerned with how she was going to collect all the dropped pieces of "Crack Corn", or whipped cream popcorn. She still darts down the driveway in hopes of finding a piece.
