Visiting Arizona

My sister Jarilynne lives in Arizona. I love to visit her when I can, and luckily we had a little time before our move to visit some spots. We had a great time. Usually it gets to be over a hundred degrees by 8 or 9 am in the summer, but the monsoons were coming through. It kept the temperatures down one day and we got to go to the park with Mark, Alexander, and little newborn David. We shot marshmellows both large and small. The larger marshmellow shooting gun was great, but I had bought the cheap kind of marshmellows and those were jamming up the works.

Alex and Mark had made marshmellow blow guns that work with small marshmellows, and the best part is that you can shoot them at people's faces. They like to blow marshmellows into each other's mouths. Totally cracked me up!

We appeased the nearby ants with marshmellows.

Cute little David.





Alex found a great stick for a sword!
