Sherwood family Flagstaff trip - July 2016

Grandma & Poppy rented a cabin in Flagstaff for a week and we had such a great trip being with our family in some perfect weather. Here are some pictures of the cabin and the culdesac it was in... 

Russ brought a few toys along!

We went to Sizzler the first night we got there... NOT worth the money we spent there and we ended up at a different Sizzler than the rest of our family :(

 

 

The next day when we woke up, we rode bikes to get some donuts. We tried out Fractured Prune for the first time. It was yummy but not the best donuts we've ever had!

 

 A group of us did the ropes course at NAU... the scariest part was climbing up the first pole. The 3 little girls (Ellie, Roxy, and Sophie) and Noah were the most brave of the whole group!

 Here's the group of us that went. We had to partner up and everyone had nicknames.

Bryan & Roxy: Willy Wonka & Veruca

Russ & Sophie: Mike & Sully

Scott & Brad: Batman & Robin

Jax & Noah: Harry & Lloyd

Suzanne & Ellie: Rooster & Annie

Auburn & Shalae: Thelma & Louise

The kids liked riding back to the cabin in the back of Poppy's truck

Day 3: we loved waking up to having the babies with us!! We also went to the "cinders" to do some riding...

Day 4, we went to ride the chair life at SnowBowl...

 

Our 5th day in Flagstaff was the 4th of July. We woke up and headed to the parade...

 

 

(We had these twin girls invading our personal space while they tried to get some shade. Their names were Sophie and Izzy.)

Day 6: Everyone kind of went separate ways on this day. Some of us went to Bearizona, some hung around the cabin, a few went golfing, and Russ, Noah and Brad went riding...

On our last day there, Russ took the kids out for one last ride in the Teryx and let each of them take a turn driving. Here's a few still shots from a video he took of Noah driving with Sophie in the passenger seat next to him... so funny to me!

We had the best week with our family and we're looking forward to having a place to escape to soon! Flagstaff is a perfect mix of having a forest-y atmosphere as well as the convenience of the stores and restaurants we have in the city!
