Arizona Fall Fun

With the arrival of cooler weather we get to spend more time outdoors, whether it be at the park, going for walks, or just playing in the backyard. Ava loves being outside, and Ali seems to really like staring at the trees, sky, and especially dozing during our family walks.

Ava recently had two birthday parties to go to. One at the ranch, which of course was a western-themed party.
Here’s Ava showing off her cowgirl hat.

Feeding the chickens.

Panning for gold.
And of course riding a horse. Note that we had to wait for the brown horse – which was of course the biggest of the horses they had out that day.

The next weekend was a train-themed party at the railroad park. The kids got to play some games outside before riding the train.

Ava loves her little engineer’s hat.
And the girls all had fun on the train.
The cooler mornings have made it more fun for some hiking…here’s Ava from a recent Saturday morning hike.

And of course it is nice enough to ride the tricycle.

And the really big tricycles…



We’ll leave you with a video of Ava on her morning runs with Chase…
