Arizona Days 3 and 4

Day 3 in Arizona was Sunday.  We woke up and went to church with my cousins and their families and said goodbye to everyone and then headed back to Phoenix for the rest of our family trip.  We couldn't go without stopping by the Snowflake Temple before we left.  This temple really is a miracle.  These towns are so small that I am sure they never dreamed they would have a temple so close.  It really is so beautiful.

Josh wanted to get a picture of us all in front of it and we couldn't keep McKay in the picture.  I love this one :)

Once getting to Phoenix we went to the Claim Jumper restaurant for dinner.  This is beginning to be a tradition for us every time we go to Phoenix.  It is really good and the kids loved all of the animal heads everywhere...

This is usually what goes on when we stay at hotels...

Monday we headed to the Arizona Science Center.  It was so neat, the boys were in heaven.

There was these water displays that the kids could play with and learn at the same time.  The favorite was throwing balls into this whirlpool.

The light in this little outside room was pretty awesome.  I loved how all of the pictures turned out.

There were so many exhibits.  We really could have stayed here hours longer.

This is a heart slide...(as in the heart in your chest.  Very educational :)

After the Science Center we headed to watch the movie "Brave."  I wasn't sure how the boys were going to react, but they all loved it.

Then it was on to the Arizona Diamondback game!  Josh and I strategically picked the teams we follow.  We picked the D-backs because Josh goes there a lot on business so we knew we would have lots of chances to see them play.  This was the boys' first game and they were so excited.  Josh has been bringing them home D-back gear from trips for a long time and they were all decked out in their clothes.

Of course we had the traditional Cracker Jack and hot dogs at the game.

The boys really did well watching the game.  Our seats were so close and I think that helped them a lot.  At then end McKay started to be done and I tried to get him back into the game.  I told him to say "go D-backs"  Instead he yelled "go puppies"  everyone around us thought that was pretty great so he continued to yell crazy things for the rest of the game.  It was pretty great.  

We has so much fun on this little adventure and are planning to do it again soon!
