Jacob went to church with us while he was here.
This is how we found Carly and Bella when we arrived at their house in AZ. The water is about 95 degrees, so not terribly refreshing, but nice!
Carly took us to a city water park in Chandler one day, and the kids loved it!
We stopped by to see the progress on the Gilbert Temple after the water park, and yes, the kids do look hot!
Jacob was really sweet with Bella and Audra, and they liked it!
Mother-Daughter
Jacob and I stayed in a hotel, and had Evan spend one of the nights. The two of them really enjoyed being together. As you can see, they're playing a video game here!
We went to the Science Center in Phoenix another day. Jacob loves cats, and was pretty interested in looking at the cat's brain!
Here it is closer up, in case you're interested.
These are giant cockroaches, and Jacob explained to me how some people in Africa eat them. Gross!
When Evan stayed with us, he missed swim practice, so swam some laps in the hotel pool. He preferred the hot tub though!
Here's the gang at the science center.
Audra was totally absorbed in some of the displays. Afterward, she said she loved it all! When we first got to AZ, Audra wasn't in the pool, so I went upstairs looking for her. She was relaxing in her air conditioned bedroom, reading past issues of The Friend. For a bedtime story one night, she got out a copy, went to the table of contents, and found an article she wanted me to read to her. KG won't know what hit them when school starts!
This display powered a light bulb from pedaling a bike.
Couldn't resist the cow! The display was about methane gas, and had fake cow manure to touch.
This big telescope let you view your own eye in the display above. That is Bella's giant eye.
Last night together for the cousins!
