Vacation With a Herd of Goates

Arizona Welcomes Us! At the beginning of May Travis, Adele, and I flew to visit the Goates! We knew we had missed them, but didn't know who much until we spent time with them again! They are the BEST hosts EVER! I want to be like Alissa when I grow up!

We flew into Mesa and Alissa picked us up. A McDonald's run, red light ran through, and a little car ride later we were at their cute house!

Adele LOVES rocks and was in heaven with all of the rock lawns! We couldn't walk very far or fast without her picking up and playing with rocks!

Jason and Alissa have an AWESOME camera and we got this sweet picture of Addie!

Kali and Adele are only 5 days apart and are so SWEET together! Two little friends...I wonder if they will be later in life! Hopefully if Jason and Travis work together!

Addie loves to give hugs and Kali let her! It was so fun to see these two little girls hugging!

Travis doesn't have any brothers and neither does Jason so they went out for some MAN time. The smile on their faces when they got home was PRICELESS. Jason had some fun with some explosives and a good time was had by all!

I am not an animal person, but I was so excited to go to the Phoenix Zoo. I LOVED it! Adele was born a furnace, so the Arizona heat made her so HOT! We got to see all the animals I wanted to; lions, tigers, giraffes, monkeys...you name it we saw it!

After the zoo Jason's sister and her roommate agreed to watch the girls so we could go have a grown up dinner. We went to Brio's and had an AMAZING dinner. Eating outside was so nice after enduring a long Minnesota winter.

We can't wait for our next Adventure with the Goates family! Thanks for having us!
