Arizona

After the Grand Canyon trip (post below) we finally settled into Arizona. We met up with my parents and my uncle David and Aunt Sandy for the last few days of our vacation. My uncle and aunt kept us very busy doing fun and exciting things.

My uncle is a pilot.........hence the name "Captain David" and he took the kids to see his jet. Bre was sick that morning but Trey was in his glory!! He loved it and it is literally all we hear about now days! My airplane this, my jet that....ahhh!! It's too much. Sandy, I now know what it must be like living with an airplane enthusiast.


This here is an in depth lesson on fueling up an airplane, how fast it can go and how many gallons of fuel the tanks can hold. No lie.........Trey was listening so intently and retold all the information to his 1st grade teacher and also his Music teacher.


David and Sandy took us to the Starr Pass for an overnight stay, some swimming and relaxing by the heated patio while viewing the desert sunset. Beautiful.

But there's no rest for the vacation savvy traveller. We headed out in the morning to the Shamrock Farm. My uncle flies for Shamrock so we went to their main "farming quarters"

Here we are with Roxy the Shamrock Cow!
And below is another faithful and supportive employee of the Shamrock family!

His photo made it to the Shamrock Hall of Fame and I'm sure the Shamrock family is so grateful for his professionalize portrait showcased in their milk parlor for all to see!

This somehow proves that all us Stoners are a little.......... off!


We took a tour of the farm in an open seated bus but unfortunately we came on the day that they has a huge dust storm. Our eyes were burning and gritty by the end of the tour but it was still tour worthy.

No Shamrock tour would be complete without Shamrock milk and a cone of Shamrock ice cream. If you're licking your lips just head out to Subway for some Shamrock milk they got it there!!
