on the road again...

On Tuesday afternoon my mom, dad and i hit the road for Arizona to visit our old friends the Workmans. We drove to Mesquite Nevada and stayed at the Casa Blanca resort-casino-spa. spa? yeah right! anyway, on wednesday we drove to Chandler, Arizona which is a couple miles from Phoenix. We had a very yummy Thanksgiving homemade by the beautiful Lisa. Friday we went shopping at "World Market-Cost Plus," "The Great Indoors," "DSW -discount shoe warehouse," and then we topped it off with "Savers!" you can never go wrong with a second-hand store. Saturday we drove to Las Vegas and checked that out, and then drove to St. George. we finally got home on Sunday afternoon! Arizonians are strange people. for one they drive crazy! they also have "thin blood" which means that 75 degrees to Arizona is like Utah's 53. you can always tell who the tourists are because they are wearing shorts in November and Arizonians would never do that! let the photographic journey begin!




we had a bit of fun with these ones...these are our Album covers. we haven't decided the name of our band yet.
