One day somewhere around mid-September, I was standing at the sink rinsing dishes and loading them into the dishwasher. There is a window right by the sink that you can look out and see if anyone is standing at the front door. Well, all the sudden I get a phone call from Zach and he asks me what I'm doing and makes small talk for a while when all the sudden I glance out the window and he is standing at out front door!!!!!! I couldn't believe it! I had NO IDEA he was making a trip to Arizona! It was such an awesome surprise!
So of course, we decided to make some fun plans for the couple days he was in town. Right after he got his luggage in, etc... we went to Bahama Bucks, a really yummy shave ice place, to have sno cones!
Then we went back home and fed the kids dinner and got them in bed. It was a test weekend for Rick so he was home studying so Zach and I went out to eat at Bucca di Beppo and ran a few errands. We ate some really yummy mozzarella sticks and a baked ziti. It was yummy!
Then the next day we got up early and made a trip to the zoo! We love going to the zoo! And we could get Zach in for free as a guest on our season pass so it worked out great!
At the zoo they do camel rides so Zach and Kimbri rode a camel! Kimbri has no fear and hopped right on with her Uncle Zach! She loved it! I of course had to take several pictures of my little 3 year old on a camel!
They put the camels head up to the gate so Kimbri could pet him at the end of the ride. His name was Dale and he was a 10 year old camel.
I thought this horse was going to try and eat Kimbri!
Petting the goats at the petting farm!
At the very end of our zoo trip we rode the little train that drives you around the zoo. The kids ate snacks and I think they were very ready for naps by the end of it. We played hard!
That night Zach made a little fort for the kids to play in and we just had a relaxing evening at home. It was so awesome to have a surprise visitor at our house! We had a blast. Thanks for coming to visit us, Zach!!!
