First Time Fall - Prescott

Alisha says: We took a mini vacation to Prescott as part of our Thanksgiving celebrations. When we first arrived we spent some time at a park that had a lot of leaves on the ground. It was so much fun to watch Skye experience playing in the leaves for the first time. She loved running around in them and throwing them up in the air. Her face in the picture of her sitting in the leaves says it all, it is pure joy! After the park we went and did a little hiking around the boulders at Watson Lake. We headed to the hotel for a little rest and then it was pool time. Dave had booked a hotel with a heated indoor pool just for Skye. She had a great time going back and forth between the kid pool and the hot tub. For dinner we thought we would just walk to the mall that was close to our hotel but we it ended up being quite the journey with a lack of sidewalks. Luckily after dinner we found a much better way back.

Day two included a hike around Lynx Lake in the morning, lunch in the old Prescott downtown, and an afternoon at the little zoo. It was so nice to get a little tiny bit of that fall feeling. The next day was actual Thanksgiving so we got up and drove back to Phoenix where we met Dave's family at the park for a picnic. Later that evening Christine hosted a really nice Thanksgiving dinner at her house. I thought that the holidays would help make this pregnancy go by fast but so far they really haven't. Ha, oh well, Thanksgiving down and now on to the Christmas season.





A highlight was playing with the luggage cart, silly girl.
