Saturday our daughter went to a friends house to go swim for the day and it was just me and my boy. He seemed to not know what to do with himself without his sister around! It's not like we haven't had days alone before...I took him to the river to play at the playground and the water then we picked up some fresh veggies at the farm stand and headed home. He did find a few other kids to play with but mentioned several times his sister would really have had fun if she came :) He does love her!
So, ownership papers are due for our daughter for 4H...which means if she's going to get a new rabbit, she has to now otherwise no new animals for the remainder of the year and unfortunately with the passing of her Netherland, she doesn't have a showmanship rabbit...so we searched high and low in our area and came up empty handed until we ran across a Blue Dutch Rabbit for sale in Prescott...I mapped it...oh my 3 1/2 hours away. Do-able but long. So after chatting with hubbie about it...we were on our way!
Road Trip to Prescott!
Flinn Park- big grassy area, nice playground, swings and peaceful!
A little Subway picnic for lunch!
Relax and Swing!
My girl anxious to go get bunny!
Better than the play structure! They found a log!
Beautiful and Peaceful...could have spent all day there!
Off to Downtown!
AZ flags lining the walkway to the courthouse...there was an awesome painted 'timeline' of AZ on the ground...the kids thought it was awesome and were telling daddy 'facts' when we got home! They said they want to go back...I smell homeschool road trip in our future? :)
Watson Lake
Sail Boats, Great rock formations...wanting to go hiking around next time!
And lastly before heading home...we picked up 'Zeke' the newest addition to our family.
He is a Blue Dutch, just turned 3 years old and so sweet, mellow and cuddly.
My boy just had to snuggle him up when we got home!
A whirlwind of fun this weekend!
