We went to the Phoenix Zoo, because we got a free culture pass from the Library. We had fun, saw lots of stuff and didn't even look at everything. We tried to get some cute pictures of McKay, but this kid does not sit still.

Looking at the elephants.

I love his face in this, he wasn't to sure.

Day trip to Payson

We took a day trip towards Payson, AZ.

McKay eating lunch, we stopped to eat lunch by Strawberry, AZ. It was a little chilly, mainly because of the wind.

McKay pushing the stroller. He thought he was really strong , he would push it, and so would the wind. The stroller went far, McKay thought that was great.

Going on a small walk around where we had lunch, of course Bella found a ball. We have no clue where she got it from. Michael getting after her because she kept putting the ball right under his feet.

We then drove farther up the road past Strawberry but not to Payson yet, we went on a longer hike.

Yes, McKay was put on Bella's leash. McKay kept wandering into the bushes and was not keeping up. Problem solved. Michael thinks I'm nuts.

McKay's little hands.

We finally made it to Payson. It's a cute little town, we stopped at some stores there wasn't much open, pretty much everything closes around 4:30- 5pm. We went to the park and had dinner.
