Wild Wild West

This post has been a long time coming.  It's about a month late.  Oh well.  It's taken us that long to recover from our wild, wild west adventure with Grandma and Grandpa.  Grandma and Grandpa are wild - what can you do?

The seven of us boarded planes headed for the wild west to get in touch with our inner cow-persons.  We headed to Phoenix for five days of adventure mixed with posh.

We rode a train and hijacked a stage coach.





We landed ourselves in jail for the hijacking stunt, but Grandma bailed us out.


After she bailed us out, Grandma took the kids for a stroll along train tracks...in front of a train.







We thought about climbing a tower of water, but at the last minute, decided that wasn't such a good idea.


Gramps and the big kids ran into some rapscallions who tortured them by making them lie on a bed of nails.





We also ventured into the desert to find our fortune in gold.  But the only gold we found was in Gramps' wallet.


The kids also rode a frog.


And every night, we headed back to our domicile, to rough it like cowboys of old, in a palatial house set into the Fountain Hills, complete with hot tub, heated pool, and outdoor grilling area.  


Thanks for the great trip, Grandma and Gramps.  We had a blast.  



Love,


Momma T. and her cow-persons
