Arizona Vacation

 


Last night the kids and I got back from an Arizona Vacation.  We spent Thanksgiving with my sister and her family at my Grandparents old ranch out in the desert near Wickenburg.  Lots of time by the pool, books, desert hikes, great food and best of all no Wifi.  Closest wifi was at the downtown McDonalds.  

Jack's friend from Berkeley joined us and taught us an amazing card game, that became sort of the evening theme.  In the game it only matters who loses and that person is called the 'bad word' hole - hence the name of the game (which is not repeated here).

I'll post more about all the activities and themes of the trip over the next few days.  But the pictures and captions below give a pretty good overview.
