It's Summer Somewhere

Paradise does not suck!
...and we found it in La Quinta this past weekend.  Flip-flops, shorts, and sunblock was a good way to live for a few days while visiting my dad in the desert.  My sister, Addie, and her kids (Callie 7, Avery 4, and Liam 6 months) made the four hour drive from Phoenix to join us.  We picked grapefruit, lemons, went to the zoo, swam, laid by the pool, ate good food, fished, went for long walks, and had a great time!


Zach and Dax pet a goat.

Callie and Avery demonstrate how to ride a wild boar.


Papa Bob and Dax take a lunch break on our walk.


Somebody is tired from all the fun he had!

Coming back to 9 degree weather was a bit of a shock to the system but not complaining.  We love Idaho but it's good to get away once in awhile.  Thanks Papa for keeping us happy in La Quinta!

I had no idea that Addie had a baby boy! How fun for Dax to have a boy cousin. I've wanted to go to La Quinta. I didn't know that summer existed somewhere else. It's still so cold!
