Here we are on a family hike up Thumb Butte near our home in Prescott. Aubry, Jonathan and Bryan climbed to the very top through some very steep and slippery areas. Humprey's Peak is in the background.
On the way down the "mountain" Daphne was in her stroller when it got away for just a brief moment. Just as the stroller was tipping over and Daphne was about to fall on her face, Wendie caught her and the stroller and said, "Don't worry! You're okay. Mommy saved you!" Daphne then said, "Wow! Do you have super powers?" We have known for a long time that Wendie is Wonder Woman.
There was still snow on the north side of the mountain which made for a slippery ascent and descent at times. Thomas fell on some of the ice and hurt his thumb pretty good. Ironic that it was on "Thumb Butte".
Stopped by the store to pick up some ice cream on the way home. We ate homemade blizzards as a way to finish off the afternoon.
What a fun day with the family.

Looks like fun! We used to do things like that with our kids (back when Roger and I could walk). Always enjoyed it. I guess you guys got settled in? Visit my blog at: scrappiemom.blogspot.com. Or visit me on Facebook.
HALLALUJAH! I'm so glad you have a blog and that I know where you are! I mean...where are you? Didn't you move? Did I send you a Christmas card and did you get it? Or not? Are you on facebook yet? Sorry, these comments are coming from the discombobulated brain of me as a pregnant woman--in case you didn't get the Christmas card--YUP. #6 (girl) is due in MAY--OUR LAST ONE. So, drop me a line Jarman's with your updated address please!
