Rag Curls

So I saw a bunch of post on how to do rag curls, so we decided to try it.

It was really curly, I think we wrapped them to tight. We will have to try again.

Spring Break Part 2

We also went to Rawhide, again something we’ve talked about doing all these years, but have never done.

Unfortunately the day we picked was unseasonably HOT!!!! And we went at about 1:00 in the afternoon the hottest part of the day.

Went saw a live show, the little kids rode some rides, rode a donkey, panned for gold, and of course we had to do a new “old time” photo.

Note to self, next time go in the winter or the evening :)

Spring Break at Home Part 1

We knew we were going to need vacation time this summer for our plans so we decided to do a few local trips for spring break. We went bowling, to the movies,went to the Biosphere 2 in Tucson, and went to Rawhide.

Biosphere was really cool. Can’t believe we’ve in AZ almost 20 years and never been. I can’t imagine living there and having no outside contact and growing all your own food, just for science. But it was a neat tour and our guide was super knowledgeable.

You know Rachel she has never met a stranger. She met a new best friend on our tour. They were inseparable for that hour. I know they exchanged names, but when we got home she couldn’t remember her name, but she is in most of our pictures :)

This was where they were dancing! Another tender mercy of the night. All this water began pouring in, AS they left! Even thought it was a retention basin, it didn’t flow in during the show.

My favorite to pictures are ones that people added quotes to:
